Event Photographer

Nation's leading cheerleading & dance photography organization is seeking freelance action photographers to join our nationwide network. Photographers are used both locally and flown to cities all around the country to capture performance action photographs. Images are captured via tethered laptops and then automatically transferred to our on site server for our automated on site sales system. All airfare and hotel accommodations are paid by UEP - not the photographers. Typical weekends include flying out on Friday morning, setting up of the equipment, photographing on Saturday and Sunday, and returning on Monday. Some events do require photographing on Friday after the setup. There are multiple events every weekend in cities all over the country - we have immediate work for the right candidates and hire across the country.
