Weekly Students talk modeling for UMW branding materials

ELI kEIth Staff Writer

The University of Mary Washington hosted a student photoshoot on April 13 and 14 to take photos for new branding materials such as billboards, websites, print and online advertisements. While students now have the opportunity to sign up for the photoshoots, previous photos used for branding materials were taken less officially, and some students photographed this way say they were unaware their photos would be on branding materials before they were used.

Students were informed about the recent photoshoot through the weekly newsletter from the Office of Student Activities and Engagement.

“I knew right away that I wanted to take on this photoshoot because I’m very photogenic and I like being able to connect with faculty/staff better,” said freshman theatre major Giannii Marshall.
