How to become a race photographer with PodiumBase.
How to apply to shoot races on PodiumBase and get your first event.

Applying
You can apply to shoot races from the photographers page. It is a short application, and the goal is to get you to your first paid race rather than a long onboarding.
Getting your first race
Start with one race. You can be invited to an event by a race organizer, or pick up a race that needs coverage near you. Some assignments are rep-only, while a payment-backed assignment can guarantee up to $500 when you complete its coverage requirements. You keep 60% of digital photo sales and 80% of net-after-COGS print sales. Eligible sale earnings count toward a payment-backed assignment's guaranteed minimum; settlement tops you up only when those earnings fall short.
What happens after you apply
After you apply for Verified Pro, we aim to review your application within five business days and let you know when you are eligible. If you have questions while you wait, ask in the chat.
Next step
Start on the photographers page, then see open work.
