Photography

The Office of Communications and Brand Marketing supports University photography needs by offering student photographers to cover on-campus events, and referrals to professional photographers for more high-level projects. The OCM team does not have an in-house photographer.

The UIW Office of Communications and Brand Marketing employes student employees who may provide archival photography for on-campus events. Requests should be submitted at least 3 workdays in advance. Please note, a request does not guarantee the availability of a student employee to photograph your event.

The Office of Communications and Brand Marketing recommends hiring partner photographers for formal or otherwise notable events. If you are interested in hiring a photographer for your event, please email pr@uiwtx.edu for third-party photographer recommendations and contact information.

Archival photos from the University’s various events, campaigns and photoshoots are housed on Canto, a digital asset management system. Canto is accessible to UIW employees via Cardinal Apps or at uiw.canto.com (sign in with UIW credentials).

For photo needs not satisfied via the University’s digital asset management system, UIW departments may purchase licenses to use stock imagery. The following are recommended sites for purchasing commercial use photos:

  • Adobe Stock
  • Freepik
  • Canva
