Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I try to shoot a minimum of 8 ft from the subject, unless inside, where I allow as much space as possible. I coach the subject on clothing/hair arrangement and posing instead of touching them myself. I wear a mask at all times while shooting and sanitize after each session if shooting in my studio.
