Photo Style

Photography 101:

Think forward. Values in action. Meaningful success. These are ideals that we tell through our stories. Our photographs need to tell our story through the experiences of our students out in the community, on service trips, in internships, across the globe or any moment that happens in our students' lives that tells a great story. We encourage you to take advantage of these moments and send these photos to our communications office.


As you see in the images above, a photo can convey a sense of energy and vibrancy by shooting with your subjects facing the camera, with facial expressions showing emotion, and where they’re acting natural and engaged. Having tools or props in their hands can give them something to do, while relaxing them and giving the photo a sense of place and purpose.
