Evidently one of the benefits of investing in a quad booth at The Bridal Extravaganza is the invitation to set up your booth one day before the rest of the vendors. Normally, today I would be rushing to set everything up, but the job is already done! I am so happy about this. Lindsey, my sister who is in from L.A., helped me out yesterday and the booth is already set up! 95% of my work is done.

My goal is to build a great photographic team. A team with very little turnover. A dependable team. A respected team. I am in need of a full time photographer, T-F 9-5, and weddings on weekends.
One associate photographer is needed and will be provided with a desk, an Apple workstation, phone, Solaris email address, business cards, and access to a complete Nikon camera system with backup equipment to photograph their weddings with. Associates will be paid $1000 per wedding photographed. I estimate that with our current marketing plans in place, an associate will be able to photograph 25 – 30 weddings a year, however this number could be higher or lower. There is just no way of knowing. Obviously though, it is in the best interest of Solaris Studios to keep their photographers shooting as much as possible. Once an associate has achieved two years of services he or she will be offered a percentage of the wedding albums sold from their weddings as further incentive / advancement.
Please continue reading if you are interested in the position....

/Begin Shameless Promotion
Warning... this is a shameless attempt at self promotion. Stop reading if you are not interested in helping out this blog.
If you would like to support this blog, then I would like to ask if you would read a short story and click a link. The link is not an advertisement that I get paid for, nor will it create any kind of spam for you. The link is a rating of a story writen about Solaris.
I have never been really good at marketing myself, so I have employeed the services of a professional writer to help me out in that department. His name is David Young.

What is a wedding? After years and years of professional photography, I have come to the conclusion that it is a language. Every planned detail is a statement. Each statement prepared and presented.
