How does a team headshots day work?
First things first. Getting a date in the diary
Getting a date in the diary is the first step. Once the date is locked in, preparations can start.
Style and brand guidance
It is important to discuss in advance branding and photography requirements: the overall style, the location, dress code, company branding to make sure the photographs maintain and enhance brand identity.
Style and clothing guidance
Sharing style guidance with teams and individuals prior to the photography day gives clarity to everyone on what to wear on the day.
On the day
Arriving early and setting up, ready to start at the agreed time. Things run pretty smoothly when planned well and everyone knows the location /room for the shoot and when they are to make an appearance.
After the day
Once everyone has had their photos taken, sharign the gallery with the photos for everyone to view and select their favourites makes it easy.
Final images
Once people have selected theri final photos they will be edited and shared as final images ready to be used.
After the photoshoot
Now that everyone has new images, their profiles cna be updated with the new images.
Reshoot days
If people have missed the date or there are new joiners, reshoot dates are offered.
