Photography
University Communications is focused on providing a dynamic, honest and intricate look at life at Central Michigan University. The content we create represent the lives, studies accomplishments, and shared experiences of CMU students, faculty, staff and alumni. Visual content is crucial in representing brand pillars and leadership standards.
Photo services:
- Unique classroom activities
- Impactful research
- Feature stories for publication
- Major events
- Group photos
- Community outreach
Due the limited availability of our photography students, we ask that you provide 8 to 10 day lead time in order to successfully plan, schedule and execute the assignment. We may not be able to accommodate requests within that timeframe. Student photographers are available in the fall and spring semesters by appointment only.
