As someone who hasn’t made herself known in the big world, you want to start and put your name out so you could get more experience but also get potential clients.
So to begin my photographic journey and hopefully having my own company. I need to gain the experience but also to see what type of photography I would like to offer to my clients.
So let’s begin the job haunt.
I have been looking for a quite a while and trying to find a photography or video related job around this time is really hard especially somewhere based in Northern Ireland. Most vacancy’s I found where based in London, Manchester, Edinburgh etc.
After spending days looking, I finally found one job based in Armagh. Looking for 2nd and 3rd shooter for a dance show in Armagh city at the end of October. I never shot anything like this before so I don’t know whether this would be something i would like to do. As it says in the description of the job you would be standing in a fixed position trying to gather at least 10 good photographs of each dancer. With it being on the stage you would have to use a flash – I don’t really have much experience with using flash as my camera doesnt have a flash in it so i would have to use the attached flash. In order for this i would have to rent it out but also read how to use to get really good shots but also ask for additional help to get shown what best settings to have my camera in so i wouldn’t ruin any photographs.
I do really enjoy taking portraits and photographing my daughter when she is playing etc.. I feel like this would be something I could learn from and gain a lot experience, new skills.
I just don’t know whether I am that confident in doing something like this just in case if my photographs turn out really bad. Which this could lead to disappointing many parents and the Eclipse Photography company.
