Product Photographer

Product Photographer

Full-time · On-site · Mid-Level (3-5 years experience)

About the Role

We're a marketing and creative agency looking for a Product Photographer to join our in-house creative team. You'll be the person responsible for translating our clients' products into images that sell, scroll-stop, and stand out across e-commerce, social, and ad campaigns. From sleek studio shots to lifestyle setups with personality, you'll own the visual quality of the work that ships.

This is a hands-on role for someone who loves the craft of photography but also thrives in a collaborative agency environment where deadlines are real and creative briefs come from a dozen directions.

What You'll Do

• Plan, shoot, and edit high-quality product photography for a diverse client roster spanning e-commerce, CPG, beauty, apparel, and beyond
• Set up and operate studio lighting, backdrops, and camera systems for both white-background catalog work and creatively styled lifestyle imagery
• Collaborate with art directors, designers, and account managers to interpret briefs and deliver imagery that meets client objectives
• Manage post-production: color correction, retouching, compositing, and final delivery in client-ready formats
• Maintain and organize the studio space, lighting equipment, props, and digital asset library
• Keep an eye on visual trends across platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest to push our work forward
• Occasionally direct on-location shoots and freelance assistants or stylists when the project calls for it

What You Bring

• 3-5 years of professional product photography experience, ideally in an agency, studio, or in-house brand environment
• A portfolio that shows range: clean catalog work, editorial-leaning lifestyle, and everything in between
• Mastery of studio lighting (strobes, continuous, modifiers) and confidence shooting tethered
• Strong post-production chops in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom; Capture One experience is a plus
• Comfort working with a range of camera systems (we shoot primarily on [insert system])
• Excellent time management and the ability to juggle multiple shoots and deadlines without dropping the ball
• Strong communication skills and a collaborative spirit—you can take feedback, give it, and keep the work moving

Nice to Have

• Experience with video capture and basic motion content for social
• Background in styling, prop sourcing, or set design
• Familiarity with DAM systems and studio workflow tools
• Working knowledge of e-commerce platform image specs (Amazon, Shopify, etc.)

What We Offer

• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
• Health, dental, and vision benefits
• Paid time off and holidays
• 401(k) with company match
• Access to top-tier studio equipment and a creative team that genuinely loves what they do
• Opportunities to grow into senior creative roles
