Associate Photographer Job

ASSOCIATE PHOTOGRAPHER APPLICATION

 

Whether you’re looking to join the Kincannon Photography team full time or you’re looking to fill some free days of the week, we’d love to discuss the possibility of you joining our team.

We’re looking for an associate photographer that can handle shoots on their own in regards to families, newborns, events, weddings, and commercial work. For the trial period you would shadow a lead photographer, then begin taking shoots on your own when you feel comfortable to do so.  Most sessions take place during the evening on the weekdays, and occasionally on the weekend. This is no post process or editing required of the associate photographer.

Compensation: Compensation is on per shoot basis.

EVENT LOCATIONS

Most of our sessions are in the Orange County area. We’re are also looking for an associate photographer in Washington, Arizona, and Georgia for future dates.

 

What we’re looking for:

 Someone with a great personality, and punctual. What we look for in a personality, is someone that is an extrovert. A photographer that can have fun during the session, get the clients to laugh and warm up quickly, and also take charge and direct the clients if need be in order to achieve the best shot and make the client feel at ease. Our clients appreciate honest, genuine, and easy-to-work-with individuals. Being punctual is highly important.

Minimum Equipment: The main goal in having similar equipment is for the consistency in working with the images, as well as how the images turn out.

 

Camera Body: Minimum – Canon 5D Mark II and above, Nikon D700 and above

 

Lenses: Minimum – At least one fast, fixed-aperture zoom lens (24-70mm f//2.8, or 70-200mm either f/2.8) and on prime lens (50mm 1.8g and/or a 85 1.8g)

 

Lighting: Minimum – Canon 580EX or Nikon SB700

 

Memory: Minimum – 32GB of storage of any brand

 

Creativity + Technical Skills: Capable of shooting in manual mode. Most skills are developed over time with experience and training, but in general, it’s important that you start with a minimum foundation of these two skills upon which we can build.
