Team Vibes, Unity & Personality – Behind the Scenes with Matek Mortgage at The Vibe Creative Studio
There’s something electric about a team that knows who they are — and isn’t afraid to show it.
Recently, the Matek Mortgage team stepped into The Vibe Creative Studio for a fresh set of team photos, and let me tell you: they brought the perfect blend of professionalism, personality, and major team spirit.
When it comes to photographing teams, I believe in one core truth: no two teams are the same. Each one has its own vibe, rhythm, and culture. My goal is always to capture not just the “standard team photo,” but the energy that makes your team uniquely yours.
More Than Just a Team Photo
During the Matek Mortgage session, we collaborated to create images that felt polished yet real — images they could use for everything from their website to social media to marketing materials.
Here’s how I approach team sessions:
✅ Personalized Planning
We chatted beforehand about the team’s vibe, brand colors, and how they wanted to come across in their imagery. For Matek Mortgage, it was about balancing trust and expertise with approachability and warmth.
✅ Individual Personality & Team Unity
One of my favorite parts of team sessions is finding space for each person’s unique personality. Everyone got solo shots, so their individual brand could shine. But we also brought them together in ways that showcased the connection and unity that makes their team so strong.
✅ Guidance & Comfort
Not everyone loves being in front of a camera (I see you, camera-shy humans!), so my job is to make it fun and easy. I guide posing, encourage genuine moments, and help everyone relax so we get photos that feel natural and confident.
✅ The Perfect Studio Space
At The Vibe Creative Studio, we have curated sets and beautiful light that help bring any brand vision to life. Whether a team wants sleek and modern, cozy and inviting, or something bold and creative, we’ve got the space and flexibility to make it happen.
Trusting the Process
A lot of teams come in feeling a little nervous — “Will we look stiff?” “Will the photos feel authentic?”
I always tell my clients: trust me. My entire approach is about connection, creativity, and making sure every person leaves feeling good about themselves and excited to share their images.
The Matek Mortgage team completely embraced the process. We laughed, switched up poses, and captured both classic shots and candid moments that tell their story. The result? A gallery full of images that show a team who’s not just great at what they do — but who genuinely loves working together.
Beyond team and individual portraits, I always carve out time for detail shots during a team session — think hands typing on laptops, branded mugs, business cards, team members collaborating, or unique decor in your space. These little moments become powerful personalized stock imagery you can use across your website, social media, presentations, and marketing materials. It’s the perfect way to keep your visuals cohesive, on-brand, and uniquely yours, instead of relying on generic stock photos that don’t tell your real story.
