YOUR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING IS OUR PRIORITY 

 

    We are committed to provide the safest environment possible before, during and after photoshoots for our clients and ourselves. 

    In addition to following local, state and federal (CDC) public health guidelines we are taking every extra step to make sure that our clients can relax, feel safe and enjoy this collaborative process and achieve amazing results. 

 

 

PREVENTATIVE MEASURES

​

​

 

We are vaccinated.  

Stephanie & staff (including Hair & Makeup artists) are all fully vaccinated 

 

Our studio

Our studio is a free standing large warehouse with plenty of space to keep physical distancing in a low traffic area in Burbank CA.   This is an exclusive space only occupied and used by Stephanie Girard Photography.

The building is a well ventilated open space with two stage doors in the shooting area for optimal airflow, there’s also direct access from parking spots to the shooting area. 

​

​

 

Our photoshoots are a contained small production usually consisting of: our client, Stephanie Girard the photographer, assistant and a makeup artist (if client choose to use one)

Stephanie and crew (if any) will be wearing face coverings at all times in addition to keeping a safe distance (at least 6 feet) when possible. 

​

 

GUESTS 

At this time outside guests will not be permitted inside the studio.

SYMPTOMS

If you are or have felt sick, have had any symptoms or have come in contact with someone confirmed positive in the last 14 days We ask that you please stay home and reschedule your photoshoot 

 

An infrared touchless thermometer is available to take temperature of crew, staff and client before entering the studio. If you have a fever of 100 degrees or higher you will not be allowed inside.

MAKEUP

All clients are welcome to come for their session camera ready, having done their own makeup & hair prior to arrive at the studio. The use of a professional makeup artist is recommended but not required. There is a separate makeup room and restroom that can be used for touch ups and wardrobe change. 

Please let us know in advance if you will be doing your own makeup in order to properly prepare as you’ll not be wearing a mask upon arrival. 

 

If choosing to have makeup professionally done by one of the studio recommended Hair & Makeup Artists (H/MUA), the artist will be adhering to strict health guidelines and sanitizing protocols to ensure your safety since you’ll be in close proximity and will have to remove your mask for makeup application.  

H/MUA are required wash their hands before each client in addition to wear mask and have gloves at all times. Face shield is available as well. 

Makeup products and tools undergo sterilization process using 70% or above alcohol and UV-C light in order to kill any virus

HMUA will use disposable tools whenever possible and are taking multiple steps to prevent any risk of cross contamination. 

 

In case a client that’s choosing to use a H/MUA has allergies and requires specific products, please let us know at the time of booking the photoshoot as special arrangements maybe necessary.
