Photo Assistant

Seeking Photo Assistant

I’m looking for a photo assistant to provide technical and creative support for a day-long shoot taking place in Austin on Nov 14. I'm a conceptual photographer working on a series of portraits that focus on underrepresented stories of pregnancy, and I'm flying into Austin to photograph two model-collaborators. 

The ideal Photo Assistant candidate would have experience working with light stands, strobe-style studio lights, and seamless paper. Equally important, or even more so, is your ability to be present and supportive to our model-collaborators during the photo session. Having an artistic practice of your own, or experience with sets / props would be a bonus.

If this speaks to you, I’d love to hear from you. Please send a cover letter and resume. Let me know if you have experience with photo shoots and helping set clients at ease. Even if not, please describe what draws you to this position and what you think you have to offer.
