Occupying prime real estate, photography is an integral part of the College brand and identity. The photography style should illustrate a dynamic and vibrant setting, with beautiful composition highlighting students, faculty members, facilities, events, and other aspects of the College community.
The use of non-professional photographs raises both brand quality and legal issues, such as photos subject to permission and copyright. For these reasons, outside of rare circumstances as deemed appropriate by Marketing & Communications, only photos taken or approved by Marketing & Communications are to be used in any and all print, web, or external materials.
All photos found on the College website or any other external communications tool are the property of Pennsylvania Highlands Community College and/or the photographer/videographer. The express written consent of Marketing & Communications must be given prior to any photograph used by other departments, areas, students, clubs, organizations, and/or groups.
