However if you do not want your child photographed or filmed, please let us know beforehand. If we get a lot of requests regarding children not being allowed to be filmed or photographed, we will have to say no to everyone. We need to mention, only 2 adults per child due to the lack of space. We are allowing video and photography for this reason.
