expressively jOhO looking for Associate Photographers and Assistants

[jOhO]

ASSOCIATE PHOTOGRAPHER:

I am looking to engage and train a couple of associate photographers in line with the expansion of the company.

Associate photographers are currently paid on a per job basis, and not full time.

To apply please furnish the following VIA EMAIL ONLY to jon@expressivelyjoho.com

1. Name
2. Nick on CS (if any)
3. Contact number
3. Portfolio
4. Availability (which days of the week for the next 12 months)
5. Expected pay per hour, expected minimum hours per job
6. If you have own equipment and are able to use it for this job, list the equipment. If you do not want to use own equipment, list equipment that you are familiar with.
7. Able to travel overseas?
8. Any other relevant skills (make up, hair, drivers' license)

Scope of an Associate Wedding Photographer (in order of importance):

1. Cover standard angles. This is quite vague and will be discussed further with examples.

2. Take all kinds of formal portraits. Formal portraits are group portraits that have been planned for before the day, such as Family portraits at their homes, church, and of guests at each table.

3. Roam around covering artistic angles not covered by the main photographer.


ASSISTANTS:

Assistant positions are targetted at beginner photographers who wish to experience wedding and bridal shoots and learn more about shooting them. Assistants do not need to shoot.

The pay level of an assistant is relatively low. Take it more as a learning experience than a way to earn money. Still, furnish me with the following VIA EMAIL ONLY to jon@expressivelyjoho.com should you be interested:

1. Name
2. Nick on CS (if any)
3. Contact number
3. Availability (which days of the week for the next 12 months)
5. Expected pay per day. (at least 12 hours of work time)
6. Equipment that you are familiar with.
7. Able to travel overseas?
8. Any other relevant skills (make up, hair, drivers' license)


MORE ABOUT THE COMPANY

Expressively jOhO was informally formed in 2002, and is now a registered business since 2006. I am the main photographer and my portfolio can be found below in my signature.

I shoot mainly two kinds of assignments. Wedding day, and Bridals, which are typically done before the wedding, but not necessarily.

My vision for this business is to bring it to overseas markets, and there are plans to have at least 50% of work done overseas to happen within 2 years.

I look forward to your applications, and will take it from there.

Thank you!

[KNIGHT ONG]

/me go apply as ASSISTANTS.

I also wanna apply ... ;p

 

[jOhO]

thanx for all the upzzz guys!

and for the applications... will take the time to go thru each of them.

For those that have PMed me, please EMAIL ME instead, jon@expressivelyjoho.com

i won't be able to track communication via PM. please understand that.

also, i know i didn't specifically ask for this, but perhaps a little more than "filling in the blanks" and write something about yourself or anything else would also help in shortlisting those that i want to meet.

another point: assoc photographers are paid by the customers, so if they want one, they pay for one. assts ALWAYS follow me. so obviously there are much more "chances" for an asst to get hired than an assoc, but of course i'm receiving tonnes more assoc apps than asst apps.

i'd like to say that there is really some good quality work out there that i've seen so far, and will be looking forward to meeting a few of you.

hate to sound all "corporate" here but only shortlisted applicants will be contacted. do seek your kind understanding.

 

[jOhO]

oh and another point, i will also be screening applicants for other "high profile" photographers and recommending you to them, so there is a chance to work with others too, not just myself.

thanx!

[jOhO]

[AReality]

W0W!
Upz for the Pro of the Pro!

 

[jOhO]

i'm getting alot of assoc applications and quite few asst applications, so hope more apps for assts can come thru. don't be shy, assts need not be experienced at all!

 

[junniee]

i wan ! be assistant! lol...

 

[jOhO]

do send me an email for those who are still interested, and your patience will be appreciated.

 

[jOhO]

hi everyone,

i have been SUPER busy and have yet to respond to all your sincere applications.

I've appointed my assistant producer/first assistant to shortlist and contact applicants and he'll be in touch with you shortly.

please feel free to email him your applications: eric@expressivelyjoho.com

Applicants who have already applied need not re-apply. Eric has your emails/information.

Once again, please take note that when you apply, please fill out all relevant information and speak a little about yourself.

Thanx!!

 

[jOhO]

just to add on, assistants are also needed for commecial jobs, not just wedding work.

associate photographer position is only open for wedding work.

 

[jOhO]

it's been an extremely busy week and i believe eric has already contacted some of you guys.

as a note, i'm getting the assistants gathered first.

associate photographers i have to speak with directly, as rates are much higher.
