Photographer/Assistant (Current Employee) - Kelowna, BC - 9 February 2020
I have wkred for this company for 2+ Years. This job is a minium paying job so the most an associate could make is about $16 and mangers make anywhere form $17 to $20. This job requires confadince and soembody who is hard working. Your job is to find out what the customers needs are and find packages that best suit their needs but also try to upsell. Hours in the job are performance based as in who can bring in the most money and who can bring out the best photography. If you have no experince with photography they train you so that you know hwta your doing with the camer. On a regualr bases there are training videos for the district to do when changes in the company have been made like prcing or packages. The mangment is amazing. If you are a hard worker and always trying to improve yourslef they do what they cn to take care of you.

Its hard to give a definite review for this company
Photographer/ Marketing Assistant (Current Employee) - Mississauga, ON - 29 January 2020
Ive enjoyed working here, as I have learned a lot. Everything from photography, lighting, to working with people, posing, and understanding sales.
Let me tell you beforehand, that as a photography studio, its not really up there. Everything is outdated like centuries away, and your smartphone could 100% shoot better. Despite this, I came to understand why people still buy photos, and why the experience, and quality of "shooting in a studio" can mean a lot.
Its a good job, but learn more, and go to workshops outside of this, network, and build your portfolio.
This type of job can be daunting if you have bills to pay, and are looking for a long term position. But for me, its short term value outweighed any cons.
Pros
Learning Opportunity
Cons
Wage
