FAQ

A staff directory brings together the photos of each member of a team or department, usually accompanied by their surname, first name and job title. It constitutes a practical tool for human resources and also facilitates communication with partners or clients.

Hiring a photographer experienced in taking portraits for a staff directory is essential. That does not, however, rule out a touch of creativity and originality. Indeed, a qualified photographer guarantees high-quality shots with a professional finish that matches the desired image. They master the art of highlighting each person through lighting techniques and carefully planned settings.

The company must work closely with the photographer to communicate its communication strategy, values and ambitions. The staff photo directory must highlight the human aspect of the company and faithfully reflect its identity and brand. An initial discussion on these points is crucial in order to obtain unified portraits that collectively reflect the company's values.

Organising a photoshoot with employees requires choosing the right time and planning the event, sometimes over several days. The company must prepare this initiative with care and explain its importance to all staff. A space, often a meeting room, is reserved within the company to set up the photo studio. Alternatively, the portraits can be taken during a seminar or corporate event.

When a company expands, the staff photo directory needs to be updated. It is possible to partner with a photographer and organise two to three portrait sessions a year with new employees based on previous ones.

A schedule of appearances is organised for all participants, and a mobile photo studio is set up to ensure a professional finish. Everything is carefully prepared: lighting, personalised support and artistic direction to guide the poses. Although this exercise can sometimes be daunting, it always takes place in a welcoming atmosphere. Very often, participants leave with a smile, delighted with the experience.

Several photos are taken during the session; it is a true collaboration between the photographer and the participant. Throughout the process, the portraits are viewed and discussions allow the shots to be adjusted. Everything is approved for a final selection at a later date.

After the session, access to an online platform will be sent to you within 24 to 48 hours. You will be able to discover a selection of the best portraits there and make your choices. Once your selection is finalised, the necessary retouching and adjustments will be carried out to harmonise the portraits and ensure visual consistency across the staff directory.

All portraits are delivered in HD format for use in printing or photo printing and in a format suitable for screens, mainly for your digital networks.
