We at Schepers Photography photograph teams as they are: authentic, attentive, undisguised. Not in a fixed position, but in motion, in conversation, at work. Our pictures show people working together - not just standing next to each other.
Why team photos today are more than just a group picture
In the past, a single group photo on the "About us" page was enough. Today, the visibility of your team is an important part of your communication - whether on the website, in social media, in brochures or in employer branding.
Good team photos have an impact both internally and externally:
- - They show customers who they are dealing with.
- - They give applicants a first, honest impression.
- - They make a company human - and not just functional.
And that only works if the picture doesn't look posed. No rigid semicircle. No forced smile. Not a cliché. Just real moments - calm, concentrated, sometimes humorous, but always credible.
How we photograph teams - and what counts
Every company is different. That's why there is no one-size-fits-all guide to a good team photo. The first step is always a conversation: Who should be shown? Where will the pictures be taken? What is the purpose - website, campaign, internal project?
Sometimes we work with small groups in one room, sometimes with 100 employees in several departments. Sometimes we take classic photos, sometimes in reportage form. The decisive factor is that it suits you - and the story you want to tell.
We work discreetly, with experience and the right timing. No one is pressured into posing. We provide guidance, but no pressure. This results in photos that look natural - and professional at the same time.
Locations: Where team photos are best taken
The best place is where your team actually works. In the production hall, in the meeting room, in the open office or outside in front of the building. The location determines the effect. If you want to demonstrate technical expertise, you need a different environment than a creative studio or an IT start-up.
We can help you choose the right location - or bring along a mobile setup if required. The important thing is not the perfect room, but the atmosphere. If your team feels comfortable, you'll see that later in the picture. And that's what counts.
For whom we realize team photos
We work with companies from all over the Rhine-Neckar region - including many from Mannheim, Heidelberg, Ludwigshafen, Speyer and Bad Dürkheim. Our clients are as diverse as their teams: start-ups, craft businesses, agencies, SMEs and growing corporate groups.
Some book us regularly to integrate new employees into image concepts. Others plan a one-off team shoot for their website and campaign. In both cases, the goal is the same: images that show character. And that don't look like "We had to do it once", but like "This is who we are."
Team photos - part of modern business photography in combination with portraits
Team photos are a central component of modern Business photography. They complement Business portraits and ensure a consistent visual language that builds trust - both within the company and externally.
When all the photos fit together - whether of the CEO, the team or production - the result is a consistent impression that looks professional without being artificial. That's why we always plan team photos in the overall context of your brand communication.
What you get after the shoot
You will receive a professional selection of the best images. Not a mass delivery, but a curated collection. We edit all images with sensitivity - clear, true to color, without filters and without excessive retouching.
The images are ready for immediate use - for your website, intranet, recruiting platform, newsletter or print products. And if new employees join later or you need an update: We'll link to it - so that everything remains consistent.
