Photography Request Form

To request a photoshoot, please fill out our request form below using your pitt.edu email address. 

All completed photos will be delivered to your Microsoft OneDrive account. 

Things to consider when requesting our services

  • Why is photography needed and how will it be used strategically?
  • Is the photo newsworthy to the news media?
  • How can the subject be photographed to yield the strongest impact? For example, a photograph of a professor working on a research project has greater potential for use than a photo of the professor being recognized at an awards ceremony.
  • Is there potential to amplify the photo through additional use, such as social media, news releases, web, magazine, newspaper, interior display, etc.?
  • How does the photo project support Pitt's strategic goals and initiatives?
  • How will the photography align with the University Brand Guidelines?
