What does a corporate photographer do?
A photographer’s job is to record good visuals of whatever you need shot. They take your storyboard or shot list and, and use their mastery of the equipment and knowledge of the art of photography to make it look beautiful. They are technicians, artists and problem solvers in one, and a good photographer can make a hard task a dream.
How much does it cost to hire a corporate photographer?
Every project is different, so there is no one standard crew rate. A crew might cost anything from $1000-10000 for a simple shoot, depending on the spec needed and location, rising to many multiples of this according to spec. Ask us first, we are past masters in helping clients get more done with less!

Should we use local photographers or fly photographers between locations?
The four E’s make using locals unbeatable.
- Economy – Plane tickets and per diems cost a lot of money! If people don’t have to travel you can easily save at least USD 1000 per person on a one day shoot when you’ve taken into account flights, hotels, food and transfers.
- Environment – Big firms increasingly need to report on their environmental impacts, and travel is BY FAR the biggest driver of emissions on a shoot. For instance, not travelling one crew member to New York from London would save 1000kg in carbon. That’s 11% of the average person’s annual carbon footprint.
- Efficiency – If you don’t need to travel people, you don’t need to plan for travel time. That is pretty obvious, but the implications are immense. You CAN do a shoot in Shaghai tomorrow if you let us know at 0500 EST or 0900 GMT. Until someone brings back supersonic air travel that’s hard to beat.
- Expertise ( local) – This one is intangible, often overlooked but can be the difference between a long slog, and a happy fun shoot. our local crew can suggest shooting locations, and warn you off making decisions that make no sense from where they are based. They know about local security and logistics. They can liaise with locals for you and save a lot of bother as a a result. If you’re nice, they might also be able to collect you from your hotel and share a few laughs over a beer post-shoot! Our people are the nicest, too.
What is corporate photography?
Corporate photography is a broad area and covers capturing images for marketing and communications collateral like websites, social media, brochures and headshots.
How often should companies update employee headshots?
They need to be updated periodically as people arrive / leave and also when a corporate style changes. As a rule every 1 -2 years is a sensible timeframe.
Can employee headshots be standardised across multiple offices?
Yes they can ! A provider like ACrew4U can work to prepare a house style guide that can be used to brief local photographers so that you end up with consistently styled and frames headshots, regardless of location.
What should staff wear for professional headshots?
This is very much a question of style. If team members meet clients in formal attire, then that would be logical to echo in headshots. Likewise, if team members were casually dressed in client facing situations, it would be jarring if they were to be presented in formal business attire. In all cases ( unless it formed part of a uniform) we’d advise muted colours and an absence of loud patterns.
How long does a corporate photography session take?
Allow at least a half day as the photographer will need time to arrive, get set up and take photos then pack up again. In terms of headshots maybe 15 minutes per person, though this could end up being faster or a lot slowert depending on compl.exity
How do global companies maintain consistency across countries?
It all comes down to planning. It’s essential to codify style, framing and other attributes of images to be captured in a guide and then ensure all local photographers are briefed beforehands. ACrew4U can assist with all this.
How much notice is needed to organise a corporate photographer?
We’d allow at least 48 hours notice, not taking into account weekends. Though ACrew4U have had photographers booked and shooting same or next day in some cases.
Can photography projects be coordinated across multiple offices?
Yes they can. A partner like ACrew4U can manage this for you. It all comes down to clear planning, specifications and briefing everyone properly in advance.
I’m still confused, can you help me?
Of course we can! Fill out the quote form, mail us or call us and we can have a chat and help you frame your project and spec. With ACrew4U, there is always a human to help.
