REQUIREMENTS: Images: 4 View Site Details The Volunteer Photographer Program is a community outreach project of the NOJHF Archive. The purpose of the program is to provide documentation of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival for the NOJHF Archive. The program joins photographers, from a variety of backgrounds, with the Festival and Archive to provide the unique experience of photographing the world renown New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. Volunteer Photographers must be at least 18 years of age. Below are the following applicant categories: --Amateur – This category is reserved for students, those at the beginning of their careers or those pursuing photography as an avocation. --Professional – This category is established for those who solely rely upon photography or a photography related field for their livelihood. Selected volunteer photographers are responsible for providing the Archive with a CD/ DVD of the images taken at the festival along with a complete index of images on the disk. Volunteer Photographers must be able to manage and edit hundreds or even thousands of digital images and understand that the work is physically demanding. Photographers often walk many miles a day around the Fair Grounds Race Course and are responsible for their own photography gear.
