The group-portrait page, a photo grid of teams shot with creative arrangements and vantage points, with notes on staging and coordinated wardrobe.
Summary
The deep-dive page for group portraits: a grid of team photographs that use playful arrangements, varied vantage points and coordinated wardrobe, with notes on how to stage them.
Visual description
Clean white page. The thin left rail carries "2.7.4 Group portraits", the heading "Celebrating teams" and two short notes (group photos as a chance for creative arrangement, using stairs, bleachers, top-down or bottom-up viewpoints; coordinating wardrobe and balancing colour and pattern), the half-circle glyph and the contents list with "Imagery" highlighted. The right two-thirds is a varied grid of group shots: teams seated on bleachers and steps, lined up against walls, sprawled on patterned carpet, a top-down arrangement of figures, and energetic colour-coordinated groups against bright backdrops. Compositions are deliberately inventive rather than rows of heads, and the warm natural-light palette matches the rest of the imagery section. A faint footer runs along the bottom.
Key takeaway
Briefing group photography around creative staging, unusual vantage points, stairs, bleachers, top-down and bottom-up, and coordinated wardrobe, so team shots feel composed and on-brand rather than like generic line-ups. It completes a three-part portrait system (individual, candid, group) under one consistent look.
Reuse notes
The third panel of a portrait suite, useful for any brand that regularly photographs teams, cohorts or partners. The staging notes are the value here; pair them with example shots that actually demonstrate the inventive arrangements. Coordinated-wardrobe guidance helps non-photographers prep a shoot.
