Educationphoto.com is the home of award-winning, higher education and admissions marketing photographer Jeff Kernen.
With a background in photojournalism and commercial photography, I bring a documentary style to the field of higher-ed marketing. I employ a combination of portable flash and available light, allowing me to move quickly and unobtrusively to get a large number of compelling photographs from a day's shoot, with minimal set-up and fanfare. This style of photography helps to create a more realistic look, while promoting natural expressions from my "models."
In addition, you'll receive more photographs than would otherwise be possible from a more traditional commercial photo shoot. How many photographs? It's not uncommon for me to produce more than100 unique (and completely edited) images from a single day's shoot. My higher-ed clients can often get through a year or two before needing to hire a photographer again. That's big, and it all comes at a competitive price. Don't just take it from me, read what others are saying about my services on my Testimonials page.
What else makes me different? With years of experience working with colleges and universities, I have a good idea of what you need. Often times, my clients require a fresh archive of images that the marketing team can draw from at a moment's notice. I'm happy to provide my customers with just such a service. Sometimes my clients have a more specific project in mind, such as creating new content for the upcoming viewbook or social media campaign. No matter your need, I'm always willing to listen and work with you to get results we can both be proud of.
While a local photographer may be "good enough," take a moment to think how your school could benefit from having a professional, who specializes in higher-ed photography, on your campus for a day or two.
Working in collaboration with your faculty, student body, and marketing department, we create engaging photography that, not only conveys your brand, but also captures the unique sprit of your college or university.
While on your campus, I think of myself as a representative of your institution. I'm always professional, respectful, and curteous, while creating a fun environment which helps my "models" feel more comfortable in front of the lens. I'm also pretty darn easy to work with.
My photography is often used in viewbooks, social media, brochures, billboards, websites, etc...all of which are key elements in recruiting prospective students.
In addition, I offer event coverage as well as sports photography.
Thank you for taking the time to look at what I have to offer. I look forward to helping you with your marketing photography needs.
