Mark Eric Photo Journal

(To my clients,  don’t be scared by this blog post.   If you booked me,  you will get me   We are not looking for anyone to replace me at weddings that I am booked for.   The positions listed here will be for future bookings (months down the road).  Clients will have the opportunity to choose associate photographers of ours if they are interested in them and if I am out of budget or unavailable.

We are seeking new team members for Mark Eric Photography.   We have been blessed with an overwhelming number of inquiries for portrait sessions and weddings.  As of now, we only offer Wedding Photography (which books up quickly).  With the help of a passionate team, we’d love to expand our services in the next few months.  We will be looking for photographers, office workers, retouchers, designers, and assistants who are located around the gulf coast states (Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida).   We will be offering full time and part time jobs only to people who do not work for another photography related company (including their own).   These positions will not provide portfolio material for personal use.  All work produced will be the property of Mark Eric Photography.  This would be perfect for artists who really struggle with the business portion of photography, and wish to continue to pursue their passion while earning a healthy living (without the responsibilities associated with the business end).    Here is what we are looking for:

Wedding Photographers.   (Must know all aspects of photography.  Must be able to properly expose an image in any given situation.  Must know lighting, composition, and white balance.  The ideal candidate should be able to walk into any situation with a camera and one or two flashes and know exactly how to light it, shoot it creatively, and move on within a matter of minutes.  Must be confident with posing of individuals and groups.  Must be a person who can take direction well and get along with others, regardless of how stressful the situation may be.  If you are applying for this position, please include a link to your portfolio in your resume).

Family Portrait Photographers    (Must be confident with exposure, white balance, composition, lighting, and posing.  Must be great with adults and kids alike.   Must have a certain level of creativity and artistic flair.  Please provide a link to your portfolio if you are applying for this position).

Retouchers and Designers  (Must have excellent vision as you will be dealing with color correction and sharpness.   It helps to have knowledge of Lightroom and Photoshop,  but not necessary- we can teach this.  Must be able to take direction well.  Must have initiative to complete tasks in a timely manner, even if you aren’t under direct supervision as some aspects of this job may be based out of the employees own home).

Please don’t email us asking if we think you are qualified,  simply send us your email (and portfolio link for the photography related jobs).  We will determine if we think you would be a good fit.   Because of time restraints, we may not be able to respond to every application, but if we are interested- you will hear from us in the coming months.

If you are interested,  please send your resume to mark@markeric.net.

Thanks!

Mark
