Free Business Portraits for the Unemployed

On Saturday, May 29th, Eugene Lane, of Eugene Lane Photography, will be offering free business portraits to those looking for work. This event will take place in the studios of Eugene Lane Photography in the Abbey Shopping Centre, Drogheda, Attendees will be eligible for free portraits that can be used on resume’s, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and other social networking sites. Mr. Lane will be photographing clients who can then download their portraits for free or order prints at cost.

Mr. Lane feels the need to give back to the community and would like to offer his expertise as a professional photographer. With the current job market so competitive, many experts are advising to include a business portrait on their resumes and social networking sites. The problem is most people don’t have this personally composed portrait. It is Mr. Lane’s belief that everyone should have an equal opportunity to compete for an open position. This is his way of leveling the field and giving back to the community.

Eugene Lane Photography (www.eugenelanephotography.com) was created in 2006. However, Eugene took his business full time last year, after being released from his position at a large Dublin-based company. Since that time, he has been building his photography business during these challenging times. Now that things are improving, Eugene wants everyone to get any chance they can, “If a simple headshot is going to do that then everyone should have the chance to get one done.”

Eugene Lane Photography has won merits in the SWPP (Society of Wedding & Portrait Photographers). His own experience has helped bring awareness to the issues of unemployment and good people being downsized, finding themselves out of work and having to start over.

Business portraits will be done by appointment on Saturday May 29th from 10am until 6pm at the studios of Eugene Lane Photography, Abbey Shopping Centre, Drogheda. Appointments are not required but are Strongly Encouraged. To schedule an appointment or to get more information, contact Eugene Lane Photography via e-mail at bizshots@eugenelanephotography.com or visit his blog at eugenelanephotography blog

Sponsored by Unite the Union

WHY WE ARE MARCHING
  • €33 billion of OUR money has already been put into the banks.
  • This government is destroying our public services to pay for the bill.
  • Instead of pouring vast sums into these banks, we should take them into public control and make the wealthy pay for their economic crimes.
  • We need to change economic policy to help the half a million people who are unemployed.
  • We should set up a public works programme to provide jobs and build up our public services.
  • We should resist wage cuts. Wage cuts mean less spending in our economy – and more jobs losses.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Don’t just sit at home and get angry. People power is the only way to bring real change. So come out on the streets and make your voice heard. This government needs to receive one big message: GET OUT OF OFFICE.

GET INVOLVED:

The Right to Work Campaign brings together trade unionists, community activists and the unemployed to say: BAIL OUT JOBS AND SERVICES NOT BANKS

We won’t let this government divide us between public sector and private sector workers; migrant and non-migrant. We want solidarity – not divide and rule tactics.

After the March to the Dáil, we invite you to the Right to Work National Conference on Saturday May 22nd in the UNITE Hall 55-56 Middle Abbey Street, Dublin 1, starting at 12pm.

This is a conference of Resistance and Solidarity and we want to hear your suggestions for how to step up our campaign
