VINCENZO RUSSO

I have got a bachelors degree in photography and one year and six months working as a events and portrait photographer. I now have advanced DSLR camera skills. During my time as working as a events and portrait photographer at Alfalfa House I have always shown up on time and have always started taking photos at the beginning of the event with my DSLR camera of individuals, families, and small groups of people participating at one of Alfalfa Houses events. I also used lighting equipment such as on camera flash on location when working with Alfalfa house and I have got very good photography studio lighting skills and I have also got a very strong ability to set up and pack down professional photography equipment on my own without help. I also have got physical fitness for setting up professional photography equipment. Sometimes I would approach individuals, families, and small groups of people and would use my communication skills to ask them if I have their permission to take a photo of them so Alfalfa House can use it in their newsletters. I also used my communication skills when approaching individuals, families, and small groups of people to tell some some of them how to pose for the photo and some I didn't need to but still asked them for permission if I can take a photo of them of what their doing so Alfalfa House can use it in their news letters. During my time at Alfalfa House I have learned how to communicate with individuals, families, small groups of people, adult Alfalfa House staff members, and children. I have also got very good communication skills that is required for working with kids, teachers, and staff. I also got very good communication skills for working in a team with photographers and I can work independently as well. I have also taken a break since June 2023 up until now because I started to prepare for written rules driving test and I passed it and then I have been learning how to drive and I have upgraded my drivers license to a P2 unrestricted drivers license recently and will have open license next year in March. I would be very good at driving to a school alone as I have got a lot of driving experience and then to the other school to take photos independently or in a group with other photographers. I am also a punctual, reliable, and a person with a bubbly personality with positive attitude. I also have got a current Queensland blue card working with children check and current police clearance which means I have been cleared to work around children. I have also got very good computer skills and I would know how to upload the photos to the place it needs to go to onto the computer at the end of each photo shoot.
