I'm currently looking for one more shooter to join us to cover Hasting Run on March 15.
I am recruiting on behalf of an American agency who has built a strong presence in the UK & Europe sporting events. There are between 20 to 40 events to cover throughout the UK & Europe every year including Edinburgh marathon, Paris marathon, Dublin marathon, Frankfurt marathon and nearly ALL Ironman/tri-athlon races.
If you work hard and able to produce quality work, there will be plenty of future shoots lined up for you. For each event, your transport and accommodation will be paid for, plus daily food allowance, on top of that, you will be paid an hourly rate. With current exchange rate, it is definitely in our favour considering rate is calculated in dollars.
Photographer requirement:
1. A good eye for framing.
2. Quick snappy shutter finger (no burst)
3. Can adapt work style and tailored to client's need.
4. Hard work (some events require getting up at 4am and finish by mid night)
5. Can work with other photographers (our ages range from 20's to 50's!) and follow team leader.
6. Past sport/event experience will be beneficial though not essential.
7. Able to commit to an assignment.
Equipment requirement:
1. Pretty much all modern DSLR would be fine.
2. Lens to cover a good focal range would be ideal, ideally 24/28 to 135/200mm.
3. CF cards will be supplied to you on the race day.
4. External flash would be required in some cases, though most times you will be issued one.
If this gets you excited, get in touch by either email or pm. Please including a link to your work/portfolio, a brief description of your experience and your contact no. I will speak with every candidate before a decision is given.
Deadline: until the right shooter is found.
Thanks for your interest and I look forward to hear from you all
:p
