Photographers Back to work by May 1
Allow professional photographers to provide services for sessions that we can honor the social distancing guidlines set by the state of California. Privately one client at a time Starting as of Friday, May 1, 2020. All necessary precautions and sanitation protocols approved by the state of CA and the local Board of Health will be followed. Our industry needs to be recognized & deemed as an essential business so we can better serve our community.
Servicing one client at a time (while wearing a mask and keeping a 6' distance) poses little to no risk of spreading the virus, as compared to 20 or more people in a grocery store or 10 plus people at restaurants picking up food.

Why is this important?
The survival of independent photographers is at risk. We are facing a grave financial hardship.
