on-site Lightroom editor and Photo assistant
Looking for an assistant fluent with Lightroom Classic to come along to weddings and mitzvahs and other events. You would assist with lighting and client interactions in the first part of the day and then start editing the photos in the 2nd half. We aim to have a selection of edited and color corrected photos by the end of the night. This is a fast pace environment and you need to be able to sort through thousands of images quickly to pull and edit the best 100 or so in a matter of a few hours.
You would finish editing the full event from home to be ready within a few days after.
Must be presentable and able to blend in in formal and black tie events, good communicator with clients and able to wrangle groups of people for portraits. Preferred to have your own car. Most of our events are in the tri-state area, most in the city, and many along Jersey shore.
You will also edit the events in Lightroom classic from home.
Pay depending on experience. Generally start at $300/day (up to 10 hours) to assist/edit full days, $30/hour for short gigs during the day, and $25/hour to edit from home.
Must have your own fast computer, with latest LR Classic installed
Important: you must be proficient with Lightroom classic culling and editing.
When replying, please
- confirm that you are fluent in LR Classic (NOT regular) and your level of experience
- indicate what computer you use at home for editing (you'll use my macbook at events)
- confirm if you have your own transportation/drivers license
- include samples of your work and/or relevant work history
- photo of yourself, either attached or link to linkedin/web/social with photo(s)
- confirm that you are available to work both on location and from home on your own computer
