Looking for One Good Intern

Anyone Out There Want to Intern with Us?

UPDATE: THE INTERN POSITION HAS BEEN FILLED.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT.

The time has come! We are just too busy to mange it all! My priorities of shooting and writing for this blog are taking a second seat sometimes because of the little things that need to get done. I have needed a personal assistant for a long time but have put it off, thinking I can handle it! The truth is, I can’t. Either can David, my husband and partner. What would the job entail? Anything from helping me prep a shoot, running errands, second or third assisting on a shoot, returning emails, walking my dog. Yeah, just being around to do the smaller stuff that I simply don’t have enough time in the day to get done. We live in a beautiful house in the Hollywood Hills, just a stones’ throw from the famous Hollywood Boulevard and the Hollywood Bowl. We actually live right smack in the middle between the Hollywood Sign and the Hollywood bowl. How hip is that? You would be working with us out of our house that has  a great artistic energy and vibe. I would need an intern for 2 days a week, 6 hours each day unless I’m shooting then I would need you at least 8 hours. If you are available 3 days a week, even better.

What do your qualifications need to be?

  • Live in the Los Angeles area. I won’t pay to relocate you and I don’t want anyone moving here for this job.

  • A fairly good understanding of the technical side of photography.

  • A fairly good understanding of Computers a.k.a. “Tech Savvy” :)

  • You must have a car. You can’t borrow mine and I don’t want to feel guilty that you took the bus from Long Beach to do this.

  • A good knowledge of the LA area is a plus! Or a GPS in your car. LA is a big city! Its a bonus to know how to get from the Hollywood Hills out to Beverly Hills.

  • A healthy, exuberant thirst for knowledge of all things Photography! From how to run a business to actually accomplishing a professional photo shoot.

If you become my intern you are guaranteed to learn  a lot! Shadowing a professional photographer is worth it’s weight in gold and you’ll gain an enormous amount of knowledge by seeing the insides and outs of running a fashion photography business. Seriously, just being around the office and being a part of the process of seeing  an assignment through to the post-production stage of a job will be an incredible opportunity for any person who wants to become a successful working photographer. You will have the opportunity to work on images in photoshop with David which will give you so much knowledge and expertise in photoshop alone that it will be worth the internship! Plus you’ll get an inside E Ticket to the model agencies, hair and make up agencies, the studios, production houses and rental houses in Los Angeles.

If you are interested, please send me an email with your contact info, a link to your website or a sample of your portfolio and a paragraph on why you think you’d make the bomb intern. Please send emails to ads@fashionphotographyblog.com. If I am interested, we’ll have you come up for an interview and go from there.

We are looking to take on an intern right away so we are looking forward to hearing from you!
