Photography

Photography plays an important role in the overall USGBC+ brand style. The purpose is to support storytelling, show real-world experiences, and feature our incredible community. Photos should possess a human element when possible. They should focus on interactions, activities, or discussions between person-person, person-building, person-environment, or building-environment.

Credits should look like this where possible: Name of Project | LEED Certification Level | Location | Photo: Photographer or Organization or Project name

If photos are being shown internationally, please include U.S. after the state location for clarity.

If space allows you should spell out state names in their entirety.

It is also good to include a territory like "Montreal, Quebec, Canada" when applicable to ensure the location is accurate.

Credits for other rating systems should look like this where possible: Name of Project | TRUE Certification Level | Location | Photo: Photographer or Organization or Project name

When typing credits for a project with multiple rating system achievements, the text can look like this: Name of Project | LEED Gold | TRUE Platinum | WELL Silver | Location | Photo: Photographer or Organization or Project name

The level of LEED certification should always be written first when applicable.
