THE TEAM PHOTOSHOOT VIBE
It’s photoshoot time for the team! Don’t feel anxious about the idea of getting everyone together to get in front of the camera!
I’m here to guide you through the prep to shoot day. When I work with teams, we have alot of fun but I’m also able to keep the flow in control, so that the team leadership gets the content they need
Make sure everyone knows the plan of the day. Some team leadership prefer no individual shots so let them know its team focus. Or if you planned to have individuals during the session let them know to be prepared to jump from team to their shots!
On shoot day, I have a flow with teams. I get the formally posed one (if you opt for that) for a mission statement pose and use.
We break off into some working images with lifestyle feels and MOVEMENT. We can bring out props to get the team in its element. All the ideas I have for you OR we collaborate together based on your shot list and needs.
If there are important teams within the whole please let me know so we can highlight them.
Some of the posing and prompts I give will give team members ease of worries and anxiety about the shoot.

Are you a fun bunch, or do you keep on the more chill side..or more conservative? Either way we will have some fun and make the team shine!
