AT&T Stadium Training Center

You will be emailed a separate parking pass for each event you are scheduled. You will either need to print the pass and place on your dash, or have the pass available to show on your phone. These passes are not allowed to be distributed to anyone not working the event.

Most games will utilize Lot G but this can very from game to game. Be sure to read the parking pass before each event so you know where to go.

Shuttles/buses are provided to transport you from the lot to the stadium and back. However, these buses can be delayed or canceled without notice so plan accordingly.

Dress Code

CREDENTIAL PICK-UP

Once scheduled for a game, you will be placed on the security list. You should receive an email with a confirmation and your security pass. When you arrive to the stadium, you will pass through a security checkpoint. Your camera equipment should be the only items that you bring into the stadium. Once through the metal detectors, you will enter the stadium and check in at the security desk. Please have your ID and security confirmation email ready to speed up this process. Once you have your credentials, you will head down to our office located on the Hall of Fame (HF103-1)

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are the times that we shoot?

Photographers will arrive 4 hours before kickoff.

Weather permitting, we will shoot plaza areas outside the stadium an additional 3 hours prior to the doors opening.

We will continue shooting throughout the end of the game. Many fans will be out on the Plazas after the game ends. Ultimately, we want all photographers to be able to get a good shot count.

What is the compensation?

Pay is $0.40 per sellable image (sellable means proper exposure & composition) (the photo does not have to be sold to get credit).

Is there a cap on the quantity of photos that can be taken?

There is no cap on the quantity of photos that can be taken within our start/end time(TBD per NFL). All we limit is duplicates of the same group/photo. We look to get a single photo per group (barring blinks, photo bombs, etc).

What is the dress code?

Photographers should wear a black top (preferably polo style), black pants (no denim), and comfortable black shoes (athletic shoes are fine)

We will provide a pocketed vest that includes an "Official Photographer" tag on the back.

How do I get paid?

We will provide payment via direct deposit or printed check. You will complete this information during your onboarding process.

Paydays are on the 15th and last day of every month.

Please note that you are being hired as a contractor and you are responsible for the taxes on your earnings. We do not withhold taxes on this event.

Is there parking?

Parking passes will be sent to you before each game.

Can I use my own gear?

We allow photographers to utilize their own gear and even suggest it for comfort and familiarity. Be mindful of increased time at security.

What gear is acceptable?

All prosumer DSLRs are fine provided they allow for an external flash.

We try to be in the 18-24mm range so a lens covering that range is needed. Kits lens will suffice. We do not use Prime lenses as there is generally a need to adjust due to space.

An external flash is to be used. It is not required to have TTL but it can be quite helpful.

Consumer DSLRs such as a Nikon D3400 or Canon T6 are also fine to use. In many cases, we use these types of cameras due to the risk of damage. Understand that the NFL, The Dallas Cowboys, The Stadium, or Jowdy Photography are not responsible for theft or damage. We will have a secured area for outerwear and camera bags.
