Photography allows us to tell authentic stories in a single moment. Photos are one of the hardest-working and most-valued assets available. Take great care and be thoughtful when selecting photos. Be sure that they’re authentic, relevant, and add value to the composition.
Only authentic photos should be used in University communications: stock imagery depicting students, faculty, or campus spaces are not permitted. The creative team in the Office of Marketing and Communication has crated a vast library of images of the University, our students, faculty, and staff. We have also cultivated relationships with reliable photographers and videographers, so please reach out if you need to hire a professional for your marketing needs.
