Capturing our gatherings and special events in photos makes it possible for us to relive the goodness of God to our church as well as share it with anyone who can see!

Some encouragement from fellow church photographers about how to carry yourself on Sundays.

SundaySocial.tv on Instagram: "Shot List for your church photo team to use this weekend 📸 A shot list is a necessary tool to use to ensure that you are presenting your photographers with direction, to help get you the content that you will need for socials for the week. Check out these churches and the awesome job their team is doing, grab inspo and make it your own. 🤟Community (@christianlifeaustin)`- Members entering the building, grabbing coffee, hugs and convos in the lobby. This is the perfect time to capture the authenticity and culture of your church. 🤟Worship (@12stonechurch) - This is the time to opt for wider angles and longer lens. Focus on capturing the essence of worship. Challenge your team to capture more than just members’ faces in worship and experiment with different filters, exposures, etc. 🤟Serving (@tfcpeople) - Capture volunteers smiling, holding welcome signs, opening doors for members as they walk in, the parking lot team guiding cars. 🤟Speakers (@southside_church) - Pastor preaching, staff members during announcements. 🤟Church life (onedotchurch) - Promotional photos for upcoming events or things happening in the church. New merch drop, fall connect groups, new bible students for the year, upcoming series. Save this or share with a church creative! #sundaysocialtv #churchreels #christiancreative #churchmedia #churchresources"

A good example of a shotlist that encompasses all of Sunday morning!
