This one is 12.50 an hour, if, of course, you're only going to work 40 hours a week. I doubt that. After spending all day lugging equipment, answering phones, getting lunch, then you'll have to sit down and do your "expert" retouching.
I know it's a tough life for photographers these days (I was an assistant in the 70s), but, jeez, how do they expect this to work? Just hand us the Raw, we'll fix it. |

this is typical, unfortunately nodody wants to pay and its a merry go round
Look at retouching sites what some people charge or even better free.
stock photography for a buck it goes on and on
It does not matter if you agree or not this is whats happening and I am 100%sure there will be a line up for this job
just my opinion zganie |

Sounds like you must have a Phd in retouching just to be considered for the $500 a week. |
