Photography That Keeps Children Safe

AI can now create realistic deepfake images from as few as 20–30 photographs of a real child. School websites are a public source of those images — which means the way you photograph, publish, and manage imagery matters more than ever.

Our AI-aware approach follows guidance from the IWF, NSPCC, and UK Safer Internet Centre. You still get a rich, engaging image library — without putting individual pupils at unnecessary risk.

Read our full AI CSAM awareness guide for the research and safeguarding context behind this approach.

How We Shoot Differently

  • Focus on the activity

    Every photograph should show what is happening — a science experiment, sports day, or drama rehearsal — not who is in it. Activity-led shots tell your story while keeping individual children from becoming the focal point.

  • Group shots, never singles

    If only one child is in the frame, we do not take the shot. Group shots distribute attention and make any individual far harder to extract or use as AI training data.

  • Side and over-the-shoulder angles

    We limit face-on photography in favour of profile, over-the-shoulder, and from-behind angles — retaining warmth and authenticity while being significantly less exploitable.

An Attractive Website Without Face-On Shots

With the right angles and composition, your school website can stay vibrant and trustworthy without relying on face-on pupil portraits — proof that safeguarding and great design are not opposites.
