"I worked over Christmas and was well aware it would be a temporary gig. I loved the job! I wasn't expecting it to be as fast paced as it was, but I was happy with the skills I learned here. I will say that if you can handle the job and keep a good average then you could go up in the company :) but that is all I will say about that. I think most people who get into this job don't expect it to be a sales job though, and for some creative people that is an issue. It really becomes a matter of, "are you a sales person or are you a photographer" question. And if you are good at one, then you will learn to be good at the other within the company. This company will train you to be good at your job. It is up to you to make it work for you!"

Working at Portrait Innovations in Fredericksburg, VA: 1 Employee Reviews

Photographer

"hard work"

What do you like about working at Portrait Innovations?

"I worked with great people and got job experience in retail and photography."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Be careful. Great place to work during off season, but during the holidays you will work 70 hour weeks, will have only one day off a week at random, and will be overbooked to the point of a panic attack. If you can survive the holidays, you will be raking in bonuses and fat paychecks from all the hours you worked. BEWARE, though. They fire those with the lowest sales averages at the end of the holidays. The worst thing about the job is that no matter how good you are, if you can't meet a $102 a week sales average, they will fire you, no matter how good your pictures are. If you are a natural-born salesman who loves photography and working with children, this is the job for you though!"

What don't you like about working at Portrait Innovations?

"The studio is not run well. The management is weak, and corporate needs to develop a better system for booking appointments over the holidays."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Management needs to work just as hard if not even harder than employees. They aren't just there to bark commands or make the workers do their work. They are there to keep the gears of the clock running like clockwork."
