This plan applies to outdoor photography for commercial photographers undertaking paid services only. Services must operate solely outdoors with up to five people where physical distancing can be maintained at all times.

The photographer providing the service must be a registered business with an ABN.

1. Ensure physical distancing 

Both the client and the photographer must ensure appropriate social distance (1.5m) of eachother. The photographer will shoot using longer lenses where closer shots are required.

Only members of the same household (maximum of 5) can be photographed together.

Photography will only take place a safe distance from other members of the public

All other business activity apart from the actual photo shoot will be conducted remotely.

2. Wear a face covering

A clean or new face mask will be worn by the photographer at all times.

Unless a lawful exception applies, all people over the age of 12 will wear a face covering and only remove that face covering for the duration of active photography photography. This is in accordance with the Stay at Home Directives (Restricted Areas) Subclause 7 (s) that state a face covering can be removed “to the extent that it is not reasonably practicable to receive that service wearing a face covering.”)

Cloth masks will be washed after use and disposable masks will be discarded. If a mask is visibly dirty or wet, the mask will be replaced immediately.

3. Practise good hygiene

Vigilant hand and cough hygiene will be maintained at all times by both the client and the photographer. The photographer will sanitise and wash hands prior to any client contact.

Camera equipment will be thoroughly cleaned between sessions.

Contact details for all persons being photographed will be collected prior to the session.

All parties including the photographer commit to rescheduling if unwell.
