Seeking a Part-time Assistant (REPOST)

Azure · 29th June 2004

Looking for a part-time photography assistant as my current one is going away for further studies soon.

No prior experience is needed but you must a willing and fast learner. My foremost criteria is a good attitude.

I need the assistant to work with me from at least late-July through to end Oct. All jobs fall on weekdays with the occasional shoot on Saturdays. During this period, you may have the chance to shoot events assignments under my guidance. You will also be exposed to strobes and metering, as well as in-situ composition. If you are keen, I can also teach you colour tweaking and PhotoShop adjustments. Note that this is largely an on-call-basis job, dealing with large groups of people. And my workflow is a wholly digital one.

On the plus side, you will get to apprentice various stuff, beyond mere photography from me. Those who prove to be good enough may be given assignments to handle on your own. Some of these will extend beyond just photography.

Interested applicants please PM me, giving me a full name, contact HP & email, and tell my a little about yourself including...
1. your experience and preferences in photography
2. your future plans
3. your knowledge of photoshop
4. You expected allowance (per hour/day rate)

The following need not apply -
> Weekenders
> "Events-only" shooters
> "film-only" shooters
> Soon-to-be undergrads of NUS/NTU

No banal chatter, please. You got a query, PM me. Thank you for viewing.

Thank you for the many PMs I received. I'll be selecting one respondent from the 2 I shortlisted. You are the one's I sent a reply to (after this repost). While I've gotten one assistant, I am leaving the option open for one or two more freelance ones, as I may have some bigger jobs where 2 x asst will be needed.

Those who are still interested, please note :-

Interested individuals, also note that owning a dSLR/digicam is NOT a requisite. Attitude is.

Thank you for viewing.

Thank you for the interest, Germ_boi.

And yes, you can always do so after your exams. I'd love to discuss more with you then.
