Photographers /Videographers Needed for Zoom Call Advice and maybe for Event if in the area

We are a grassroots nonprofit looking for help to get our programs and messages out there and I think a videographer or a photographer would be great for this. We would like to talk with u about what kind of film or photographs could work for showing our programs without showing the faces of the participants. Most will be youth and children and others are adults that are not in their best light and as someone who has been there, it feels like the payment for the food is a smile for the camera and although I understand that, I don't like it and would like a way to capture the emotion and humanity without identifying the person (some people might not mind, but some feel forced so, I haven't quite found how to ask without it appearing like a form of payment in their eyes. Hopefully we can talk and do a zoom call and you can give me some advice, tips and ideas.
