They will be required to be creative and ensure photographs are kept fresh and engaging. The photographer will need to be flexible, able to problem solve very quickly and come up with creative solutions to find different or creative ways to get new shots.

The supplier will be required to potentially shoot very sensitive and difficult situations - patients or families of donors. And likewise, may be required to photograph High-Net-Worth Individuals/VIPs - busy people with whom we have one shot to get the shot. The supplier would need to be comfortable with these situations.
