As some of you know I've moved to Lagos, Nigeria, for work. As a lot of you know I'm a huge fan of the talent in this community.
So it was only natural when my communications director was asking me to find photographers who will come out here from time to time and do work for us that I turned to MR.
I will be fielding photographers from this community, as well as some contacts that I've made elsewhere. I won't be making the final decision, its up to my comm director.
I need bids from photographers who think they can handle the job. These bids need to include a portfolio, time needed to complete the project (approx), what equipment you will be bringing. Basically that you grasp the extent of the work needed, and we can understand what you are asking in terms of compensation.
Please visit www.thechagourygroup.com to see what we had done 5 years ago. You can see the extent of the work that was done the last time we had photographers come out. Its time for an upgrade, which coincides with our newest project and developments. This job will likely take place around February - March. A job like this takes a lot of planning and organization, its why I am starting from now.
What you will be most likely photographing:
Documenting, and providing stock photography for our conglomerate to use in our various marketing campaigns:
Factories,
Construction Sites,
Staff interaction,
Local community in action
Buildings, Equipment, Products.
We will provide you with the following:
Airfare, Room + Board, Car + Driver
What you'll need to bring:
Equipment, you can't rent anything out here and you don't have access to any photography stores. So everything you need to complete the job, bring it with you.
You'll have to do the Visa process, which takes about a month.
