Client(s) is/are hereby notified and agree(s) that:

1. While the State of New Jersey has eased or eliminated various COVID-19 based restrictions on businesses, the conduct and performance of the services being provided by the Studio are subject to those rules in place at the time the photography services are to be performed.

3. Client and all members of Client’s party agree to abide by the social distancing measures in force at the time of their session or event. Client and members of Client’s party explicitly agree and understand that failure to adhere to such social distancing measures places them at increased risk of COVID-19 exposure or transmission.
