1 thing that i dont have experience is to take events photography.

it can't be that you picked up photography just to earn money from it? Anyway, your motivation is your own business, I won't go into that.

You can check out Services Wanted, sometimes there's enquiries for birthday parties, 1 mth old celebrations etc etc.
 

is a catch 22 situation,

who want to hire someone without any experience to pass them an assignment, who suppose to be responsible if ones fail to deliver?

to start with, you need build a solid foundation on your basic photography, show your works to people what you capable of, people will give you some opportunities to begin with.

Why don't you go to the events and practice practice practice first? I certainly would NEVER hire you for event coverage if you had zero experience. NO COMPANY would hire someone with ZERO skill/experience for a job.

What genre of photography would you like to go into?

Take up personal projects, test shoots, do as much as possible, practice, build up portfolio
 

Try volunteering yourself, sometimes events at grassroots and PA needs volunteers to take photos at their events :) if not other charity organizations also... When they have events.

Well yes, I guess that's true too. Then we get the customers complaining on CS about the poor service of this or that company...

Hart, some companies don't even look at portfolio. Nevermind that, they don't look at experience too.
 

I am looking for long term partner freelance photographer to team up with me to take pre-wedding (outdoor) photo. My clients are from Local & Oversea.

I will foresee many jobs but the cost is low as we target on quantity.

one loaction with walking distance SG iconic view, ~4hrs shooting

Is good that you have a pre-wedding experience, that will be bonus. If not have then is fine.

If interested, kindly PM me.

2. you seem to be hijacking another person's thread with what ever service you're looking for

U can just focus on those who are hiring. It shows they are in need of manpower.

Done that, those that I tried didn't reply.. Only 1 did to reject :(
 

another tip is for you to approach charity organisations or NGOs, special schools for blind, autistic, old folks homes, children's homes etc. they hold alot of events, charity drives, roadshows, whatever.... they are always on shoestring budget on operations. so u can approach them, charge a very low nominal fee or do it FOC.

I'm sure they will appreciate that.

yes, that will be good for anyone keen to volunteer, but they don't have so many events, ones may need to approach many organizations.

another idea is ones can approach your RC or nearby RC, don't have to go so far away, they have many small scale events available for your neighborhood.
 

yeah, there are actually quite alot of opportunities to start PT photography. Just go out and look around you. Talk to as many ppl as you can. Go knock on doors.

But of coz, u dont get to earn lots of $$...... its a trade off
