Our photography style is often driven by academics, but should also feel lighthearted, confident and natural. Images can be broken down into four categories: action, candid, campus and texture. For all categories, use natural sources of light whenever possible. Images should always feel warm, showcasing Chapman’s sunny Californian environment.
