Sustainability Policy.

At Libby Clark Photography, I am committed to running a business that is ethical and sustainable. I want to minimise my impact on the environment and also educate my clients and colleagues on the importance of focusing on their own impact.

​

​

Requirements

  • Complete and publicly share a Carbon Footprint Calculator for my business to see where it is having the most impact.

  • Select suppliers carefully, investigating their own sustainability policies before deciding to work with them

  • Only use responsibly sourced materials, for example recycled and FSC-approved papers

  • Reduce unnecessary travel

  • Educate my clients via social media and guides for wedding clients, making sustainable suggestions

  • Review my energy usage and sources

  • Consider sustainability and environmental impacts in all business decisions

  • Be open and honest about who my suppliers are

  • Review use of AI and make changes to reduce it or use alternative providers with better credentials

​

​

Practical Steps

To ensure the above requirements are met, I will:

  • I have taken a benchmark carbon footprint for the tax year 2022-23, which I will use to look at ways I can reduce the impact of Libby Clark Photography. Each of my reports can be found here

  • Evaluate where I can reduce the carbon created by Libby Clark Photography

  • Offset any carbon impact at the end of each tax year

  • Review all business suppliers and check their own sustainability efforts

  • Make changes to suppliers where it is possible (for example, there are alternative options for that area of my business that are within budget)

  • Review my current suppliers annually and challenge them on their sustainability efforts. If they are unable to provide adequate answers, and it’s feasible to do so, I will look to change suppliers.

  • Check all new suppliers are actively making an effort to be carbon neutral or net zero

  • Review the energy used in my business

  • Make changes to my working environment to reduce energy usage

  • Reduce unnecessary travel by replacing face-to-face meetings with Zoom calls where possible

  • Actively market to weddings within 2 hours of my base to avoid travel around the country

  • Create a page within my website that shows my sustainability efforts

 

Legal Restraints

  • There are no legal or regulatory requirements that affect my business at this time
