NY event photo job, Photographer job

The core product created and service offered at Max's PictureThis is event photo favors. At our clients' events we set up a station where the guests may get their picture taken; it is then superimposed onto whatever background is selected from a collection pre-decided by the client. Finally picture will be printed and framed for them to pick up - all within 10 to 20 minutes. You would be working at the event.

The starting compensation is $10/hour introductory. Once you've done 5 parties you will be raised to $12/hour, with further potential for raises and bonuses. Your payable hours will start when you get to the office to pick up the equipment and end when you return to drop equipment off, therefore you WILL BE PAID for your time traveling to and from the events. The vast majority of our events are on weekends and it is very unlikely you will ever be asked to work a weekday. This industry is somewhat seasonal and thus some months will have higher job volumes than other, but our current average is 9 parties / month. While you will not be working every one of these we will have you on as many as scheduling will allow.

The position we are currently hiring for is Customer Service / Photographer.

In this position it will be your responsibility to:
1. Answer any questions guests may have about the service.
2. Take the guests picture.
3. Frame the pictures as they come out.
4. Provide an overall positive and happy experience that the guests will have while at our station.

Sound like something you'd be interested in doing? We certainly hope so!
The requirements we have for this position are:
1. Must have an energetic, friendly and outgoing demeanor - you will be the face of our company at the event and the reflection of the company, and providing a positive look and feel is of paramount importance!
2. Must be able to maintain a calm and level head in chaotic situations - it can occasionally get somewhat hectic at parties so we definitely need someone who can keep their cool if the guests turn a little wild!
3. Must have a working knowledge and some experience with digital photography and photo cameras - you do not need to be Ansel Addams but we do need someone who will be comfortable and know what they're doing when taking the pictures!
4. Must be comfortable working both in a team and on their own - you will be part of a two man (or woman) team at the event and must be able to perform both in conjunction with your team-mate as well as display initiative when needed!
5. Must have a car - the majority of our jobs are in NJ, LI or upstate NY (yes of course you'll be compensated for your travel!) and thus you will need a way to travel to the job site! Please if you do not have cars do not respond to this posting and waste both our times.
6. Any computer/ Photoshop knowledge is a plus!!

Does this sound like you? We certainly hope so!
If it does, send as an email, including your resume and a recent photo, to BenAbel@MaxsPictureThis.com and introduce yourself.
If you do not hear back from us immediately please understand that we get flooded with resumes but will definitely make sure we get back to everyone in a timely fashion!
