Peartree ALP

Are you passionate about the beauty of life and capturing it naturally through photography?  Any good at it?  So you think you’ve got what it takes?

Most of you will not know this, but Peartree has successfully been running an Assistant Learning Program (ALP) for the past 2.5 years.  We are happy to mention that it has thus far produced 5 brilliant photographers who are making a decent living whilst living out their passion.  Developing others to their full potential in partnership is what it is all about!

We are currently finalizing our group for the 10-11 Wedding Season and thought we’ll give you a chance to come in contention for this specifically chosen group.  Please make sure that you can tick all the boxes before applying – we are seriously (with reasons) looking for a specific type of people who already share our uniquely fresh approach, first in life and then also in photography.

We are looking for people who

• are willing to serve selflessly and learn well through observation
• have a passion for nature, people and anything that is real
• are extremely energetic, athletic & hardworking
• have a general knowledge of shutter speed, aperture, ISO settings, depth of field & DSLR cameras (you do not have to own one, just know how it works)
• have a valid driving license and are residing in the Stellenbosch area or close vicinity (for practical reasons)
• are solely relying on another source of income and have weekends available
• and I suppose you need to like Peartree Photography’s style of photography, otherwise you will get really bored, uninspired and ultimately unhappy!  :(

(Only) If you can tick all the boxes, sent us a short CV or paragraph on yourself by email.  Also include 10 pictures (that you have taken!) that shows your style and interest in photography.  Please make sure these pictures do not exceed 200kb / picture.

We will get in touch with you for an interview if we feel you are a possible candidate for the group.  We are looking forward to hearing from you soon.  Applications close at 1200 on Wednesday, 30 June 2010.
