The University of Alabama
Photographer / Communication Specialist | 08/2009 - Current
I work to project the positive impact of The University of Alabama among the state, region and nation. I assist in establishing image goals for the University while collaborating with multiple clients to produce positive images of The University of Alabama.
I participate in creative meetings on assigned projects to contribute to the planning, creative brainstorming, execution, and implementation of marketing communication and media relations projects.
I plan photo shoots to determine locations, clarify client's expectations, develop lighting strategy, and discuss ideas with designers.
I create original photography, while directing models and assistants, to compose photographs that include all relevant storytelling components to the photograph.
After the photo-shoot, I also use good judgment to edit down the selection of images, edit photos, and perform retouching when necessary.
After initial editing, I assign metadata to images uniformly and use a decided-upon vocabulary in the file naming and metadata of each image that will allow the images to be properly archived.
During football season, I travel with the university to cover sporting events and behind the scenes events related to games. I serve as a photographers assistant, second shooter, and editor.
When needed, I also serve as an assistant to photographers during shoots, in pre-planning or post work to help achieve the desired product.
