Pros

Great learning opportunity for anyone looking to take up photography. Fast-paced, fun environment. Easy to take a day off with enough notice.

Cons

As a photographer, trafficker, or sessioner, you only get one half hour lunch & no 10 minute breaks. With the fast-paced atmosphere of get 'em out in 12 minutes, it's almost impossible, even though that's illegal.

Pros

co workers were great, get to work in a new environment every day, summers and holidays off, great for parents who want to be off when their children are off from school, training provided

Cons

low salary, no raises, not much room for growth, a lot of wear and tear on your car and not compensated well enough for its up keep, hard to have this be the primary source of income

Pros

This job was always an adventure. It was fun to work with all the different students, particularly the youngest ones. If you can get used to the very early mornings, the hours are nice because you generally have a lot of the afternoon and all of the evenings for yourself. There is a nice balance between working with a team and working individually. Management was always willing to respond to questions and help support the photographers.

Cons

The job is much more physically demanding than you might expect. Equipment set up and transport is no small task and you spend hours, often without a break, on your feet slightly bent at a camera. Also, the morale of the other employees was often discouraging. Finally, while there is a commitment to quality, there is an equal commitment to speed and when you are always rushing, it's challenging to do your best work.
