| Description |
An opportunity to assist with and learn all aspects of running a free-lance
photography business. Internship will be approximately 2-3 days a
week and includes shoot assistance, shoot planning, stock photography
file management, image cleaning and manipulation with Photoshop, general
office work and more. Currently, there's an emphasis on environmental
portraiture (see maziarzpeople.com
) and local travel photography (see parkcitystock.com
) along with some individual sports photography (see
sportsstockphotography.com )
|
| Requirements |
1.
Personal, academic and/or work references.
2. Advanced
Photoshop skills. Additional skills such as html & Flash would
be appreciated.
3. A
love of photography. |
What
You Get |
1.
Learn how to run a successful photography business.
2. Help with self-assignments.
3. Consultation on starting your own web-based stock photography
business.
4. College credit
is possible (this depends on your school's requirements.)
In my experience,
even though these benefits have been offered in the past, they require
a self-motivated individual to take advantage of them. Are you self-motivated?
|
| Pay |
Stipend TBD.
|
| Timeframe |
Flexible, but heaviest shooting times are summer and winter rather
than spring and fall. Ideally, we should try to plan a week-long try-out
period to make sure we work together well before we both commit to
the internship.
|
| How
to Apply |
Send an email describing:
1. your
experience,
2. what
type of photography you like best,
3. some samples of your work (small JPEGs or a web link),
4. your
qualifications and
5. what you can bring to the internship.
I try to reply
to all emails, but please don't take it personally if you don't
get a reply right away.
