Photo shoots

We organise photo shoots each year to capture new images of our students on campus to use in marketing material. We also take photos of students and graduates in environments that relate to their work, such as interesting job sites and exciting overseas locations.

Organise your own photo shoot

How to book a photographer

  • Griffith staff are to choose a photographer from the preferred supplier list
  • Complete a photography brief and send to the photographer. The best brief will provide the best possible shots.
  • Best practice is to supply a PO number.

During the shoot

To ensure Griffith owns the copyright for our photography, all talent must fill in a talent release form.

Multimedia talent release form

Talent under 18 need to have the PDF form signed by a parent or guardian.

Professional standards

  • Suppliers must maintain professional standards of presentation and communication with staff, talent and other people associated with Griffith University photography jobs.
  • Suppliers must have relevant professional insurance.

Photo Disclaimer

When taking event photography, we recommend you use a Photo Disclaimer poster for public events. See our hub for templates.

Copyright

  • Griffith University owns the copyright of all images taken on behalf of the University. Suppliers retain an irrevocable, royalty-free licence to material produced for the University for their own self promotion, 
    advertising and industry activities.
  • The suppliers do not indemnify Griffith University from any third party intellectual property claims that might be made as a result of objects or other things that are captured in photography, other than the subjects and participants directly involved in such photography, who are required to sign the relevant Griffith University Talent Release forms.
  • The University contact person should assist in those circumstances where this is difficult to obtain individual Talent Release forms, such as using signage in the venue.
  • Suppliers will retain creative integrity of the images. However, the University has the right to crop or manipulate images for purposes it requires. The University will respect any moral rights attaching to photographs produced for the university. It will not ‘deface’ images to an extent that may harm the reputation of any supplier.
