I'm looking for second photographers for some 2024 wedding dates. I love working with a second photographer because it means my couples get even more fabulous pictures, and I've found that I always learn something from the other photographers I work with too. There is nothing I love more than creative collaboration!
As a second photographer for Taylar Dawn Photography, you'll come along to shoot a wedding with me (or lots of weddings!). We'll do a lot of shooting together on the day, and may sometimes split up to divide and conquer, like if the couple are getting ready separately. You may also assist with other miscellaneous tasks, like organizing family portraits, snapping polaroids, or catching some short videos! I'll edit all photos for the couple's wedding day gallery, but you also are able to keep the raw files you shoot and are welcome to edit them yourself to display them in your portfolio and on social media.
Second shooters are paid per wedding based on experience and hours of wedding day coverage.
As a second shooter, you should:
* Be reliable, punctual, and organized.
* Be confident, upbeat, and kind to couples.
* Be able to spend up to 10 hours on your feet and shooting.
* Have a professional attitude.
* Work well under pressure.
* Have a genuine love for photography and want to learn and grow.
* Have a full frame DSLR or mirrorless camera and lenses.
* Love New Girl. (Okay, I'm joking. Not required, but definitely bonus points)
Some weddings may involve travel! I'm located in SW North Dakota!
Extra job perks: I am the queen of snacks and will always have some for you, you get some fabulous reception dinners, you get to listen to all my bad jokes, you get to witness a fab love story, and you can learn all about shooting, gear, posing, and business details because I love talking about allll of it.
Sound good? Now the important stuff:
