Connecting you to resources for photography services and video production to meet your needs.
Does your College of Education unit have an upcoming event, a special project, or something that requires photography or video services? Email the Communications Office at communications@education.illinois.edu with details about your needs.
While the College does not have a photographer on staff, we can make an appropriate recommendation based on the nature and scope of your project. The campus' StratCom office has in-house photographers available for specific photo assignments and purposes. You can request for a campus photographer to attend your event, but they attend at their own discretion. Additionally, the university contracts with several local photographers and videographers as approved vendors.
For event photography, if the event is being covered for news or social media purposes, a member of the communications team may be present. MarCom will coordinate with you regarding their attendance and or needs at an event.
If you want an official event photographer, you may contract with an approved university vendor, or student organization, to take photos during your event.
The College will offer once per year, typically before the fall semester, an opportunity to have your photo taken by a professional photographer for free.
If you do not have a professional, high-resolution portrait image available, the StratCom photographers can help for a nominal cost that can be charged back to your unit.
