Photography Dilemma: What would YOU do?

DILEMMA: You want a group photo of your team without masks on. Due to COVID, you are not allowed to sit or stand within 6 feet of each other without masks. How do you solve this?

Real-life Dilemma:  One of my clients - a major hospital throughout the U.S. - asked me to take a photograph of their team without masks on (final image above). When we arrived on-location, it dawned on them that due to recent hospital COVID protocols, they couldn’t have the team members stand together. What to do?! 

Real-life Solution:  I photographed each team member individually, taking multiple shots of each, as they posed on three different set markers (see photos below).  Meanwhile, I had my camera on a tripod with a zoom lens so I could stay a good distance away from the subjects.  Afterwards, my client chose the best pose for each subject and then digitally brought them together into one image.

Problem solved.  The group photo was obtained and COVID protections were not compromised. This is a service I have provided multiple times during this pandemic. With smart planning, great mages can still be accomplished during this time of social distancing.

The first team member came in and I photographed her on three different markers with different poses.

And then the second team member came in and I photographed her on the same three markers.
