A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to dive into something a little different from our usual: commercial and stock photos for the Americorps VISTA program! As part of their effort to support and train their volunteers, VISTA has taken on the ambitious project of bringing their vast resources into an online format. Of course, this meant adding fresh, new photos of volunteers, demonstrating some of the activities might do during their volunteer service.
Even without a full hair and makeup team, the experience was definitely hectic. Many of our “models” were actual volunteers in the VISTA program, and it was hard enough just making sure that schedules aligned, and our people were in the right place at the right time! Still, it was great to meet such a diverse group of people, and I think our shots will make a great addition to the online project.
If you’re looking to give a little something back to the community, be sure to check out the VISTA program, which takes volunteers from all walks of life, from all over the country.
