Agent Profile Photos

All agents who start with NZSIR require new photos with a professional photographer to use in profile marketing collateral.

Marketing will provide you with details of the company photographer in your region so you can liaise directly and arrange a suitable date and location for the shoot. If you have another preferred photographer you’d like to use, send the contact details to Marketing who can provide a detailed brief together with Photography Guidelines.

Dress code is formal business attire, agents are typically asked to bring two wardrobe changes so photos can be taken in a couple of different settings and with a range of full length, mid-range and sitting shots.
