Welcome to Photoassist.co.uk – the online resource for photographers, photo assistants, and photography students. Our aim is to help out those looking to embark on a career in professional photography, as well as matching up photographers with assistants through our assistants database and jobs pages.
If you're curious about how to get into photography as a career or are looking for advice regarding assisting, have a browse through the articles and information section of the site. Be sure to check out the forums, where there are details of current assisting and photography jobs, and where you can discuss any relevant issues.
If you’re an assistant looking for work, feel free to register in our assistants database – it’s free! You may also want to check out the assisting jobs page and photography jobs page.
If you’re a photographer looking for an assistant, either add a message to the assisting jobs offered page, or contact assistants directly through the search page.
If you’re anyone else looking for a photographer, please feel free to post your job requirements on our photography jobs offered page!
We've been running a series of 1-day introduction to assisting courses aimed at giving an overview of assisting for beginners and for existing assistants to brush up their skills. The next course date is to be confirmed. For further details and to register your interest see our courses page.
We will also be shortly introducing an introduction to digital SLR photography course. Again, please email us at admin@photoassist.co.uk to register.
