How to shoot this aesthetic

"Teamwork makes the dream work diverse, rounded, and happening in a flat-design world"

Shot list

  • Group portrait of people collaborating at a table, deliberately diverse, arranged like an illustration come to life
  • Subject posed with arms slightly away from the body and a mild forward lean the corporate memphis pose
  • Environmental shot of a modern workspace where the design language of the furniture and walls matches the aesthetic

Lighting

Flat, even, friendly no shadow that suggests discomfort or drama; a large overhead softbox with a white reflector fill creates the well-lit safe space the aesthetic requires
