photogs: paid assistant gig 9/23 (NW Houston)

04JaxBride

My assistant just realized she is unable to help me at our next wedding.

This is not a huge venue, so it will be a smallish/medium wedding, and a great opportunity for someone who wants to learn more about shooting weddings.  The groom is a high school friend of mine, so I'll know a lot of people there.  I would consider working it unassisted, but since my HS friends will probably be chatty, I really do want a second shooter.

I posted it on pixtus.com, but here's the info:

Coverage will begin mid-afternoon, ceremony at 7:15p. I will cover beginning at 3, need a second to help cover by at least 5:00 p.m. Wedding is at House Plantation, off 290 kind of near the outlet mall. It's a cute little old house with outdoor pavilion wedding venue.

I don't have final timeline yet, but assuming we'll be done around midnight, possibly a smidge later.

Breakdown:

• This is a paid gig, approximately $100-150 depending on your experience, and how long I need you to stay once the reception "main events" are done.
• You use my equipment (do not bring any of your own equipment), MTP retains copyright, you do not keep/edit any images. I shoot Nikon, but I can't imagine a Canon shooter would have any trouble adapting.
• You will mainly be covering second angles as needed, helping schlep equipment, holding flashes, etc.  I will provide plenty of instruction and help.
  
• You will get to eat ; )
• You need to be a calm, non-freaker-outer type person.
• Be available THIS Saturday morning for a quick get-to-know-me at my Montrose/Richmond office or Friendswood office.

Please e-mail assist@monkey-tree.com and tell me a little about you. Use "9-23-11" in the subject line. Thanks : )

Umm, when did the little girl in your sig turn into such a pretty young woman?!?  She is all grown up now!

*sigh*

this is what happens when you feed them, and allow them to socialize.  i'm so proud of her, though : )

Well that does it.  I'm not feeding Georgia anymore.

I cried all day when she rolled over.  I can't imagine how I'm going to feel when she is a teenager.

i've only teared up a few times, but it's mostly because i'm proud of her.

: )  she is so much fun.  it's so interesting to sit and listen to how she thinks about stuff.  it never stops being cool.
