Frequently Asked Questions.

Where is www.1ProPhoto.com located?

1prophoto.com's servers are located in New York City.

Does this mean that www.1prophoto.com is a New York web site.?

"NO!" www.1prophoto.com is an internet web site and not a physical location.
This web site is for anyone anywhere in the world that is involved with the commercial photo industry.

Hey why was my photo deleted from the assistants database?

Probably because you couldn't follow directions and uploaded an image that was: not a .JPG, was larger than 72 DPI, did not clearly display your face, was art work and not an image of your pretty face, had the letters "ME" as a file name. Sorry if your to lazy to read directions than you probably shouldn't be on set either.

Hey why was my resume deleted from the assistants database?

Probably because you couldn't follow directions and uploaded a resumes as a PDF file or: You got so creative with your resume that it was over 5 megs in size. Your resume file was actually some other type of self promotion.

Why are the Assistant's email address's no longer visible?

That is because other web sites and some photo companies have been data mining the site for emails to promote their products and services to you directly.

I am a photographer trying to contact assistants from your site, how do I proceed?

2.) Move your mouse to the navigation bar and over the CREW MEMBERS heading.
3.) Select the desired crew member from the drop down list. ( Photo Assistant - http://www.1prophoto.com/AssistantsDB/Assistantslist.asp )
4.) The Database page will display the first 5 listings. However you do have the option of using the Records per page drop down menu to view from 5 to 100 or All of the database records on one page.
5.) You can use the simple search field to search by city, state, country, or other info. Or you can use the Advanced search option to search by exact criteria.
6.) With your search results returned you can now view the results and use the VIEW DETAILS option to view the information that each database listing offers. All listings should have a current working phone number for you to contact the crew member.

 

How do I become recommended by this site?

Any one that has this designation next to there name has been recommended by a respected industry professional and or by one of the founding members of this site. The assistants that are currently recommended by us have a level of knowledge and experience that is equal to or surpasses that of most commercial photographers these days. The assistant should be extremely aware and be able to handle all aspects of a photo shoot including pre & post production.

As an example; should the need ever arise, any one of the assistants recommended by the site could in an emergency situation take over shooting for a photographer and have the rest of the job continue to look like the original photographer had shot it.

"How do I know if I can be recommended?"
"You should be able to produce and shoot the job if the photographer drops dead."
This my seem a bit extreme of an example; but in reality this type of assistant is what we all need to strive for.

Photographers, please feel free to recommend an assistant to us via E-Mail.
