Requirements
• 3–5+ years of experience in studio photography, ideally in intimate, boudoir, or luxury portrait environments. • Proven experience directing and posing non‑models with empathy and emotional presence. • Experience mentoring, training, or informally leading other photographers is a strong plus. • Excellent time management — you can run emotionally intense back‑to‑back sessions without rushing the guest. • Open to learning and following a proven process before suggesting changes to it. • East London studio, in-person only. • Full-time, five days per week including most weekends.
Responsibilities
• Ongoing craft development through weekly gallery reviews, 1‑1s, and calibration sessions that you help lead. • A clear path into senior creative leadership as we scale to multiple locations. • A tight, all‑female studio floor team that genuinely wants you to win. • Run your shoots each day, starting and ending on time. • Model best‑in‑class directing and posing of everyday women so they feel safe, supported, and genuinely seen throughout. • Lead by example on set standards: keep sets, wardrobe, gear, and the studio floor immaculate every shift. • Review galleries and give structured feedback to other photographers, helping them hit and maintain our standards. • Log clear notes after every guest so the rest of the team can do their best work downstream. • Participate in and often lead daily floor huddles; communicate actively with your HMUA, fellow photographers, and Studio Manager. • Engage fully in ongoing training: implement feedback, help run gallery reviews, and support weekly skill development. • Be a team player who raises the performance and professionalism of everyone around you. • Ensure 3 high‑touch emotional sessions per photographer per day run to our timing, gallery, and guest‑experience standards. • Maintain gallery quality across the photography team that consistently gives each guest plenty of strong, saleable images to build artwork they’re proud to live with. • Help maintain high guest satisfaction scores and strong downstream artwork sales through consistent image quality and experience.
Benefits
• No sales…no editing…your primary focus is running powerful shoots and leading the photography standard on the studio floor. • Monthly performance bonus once fully ramped, based on timing, gallery quality, and guest scores. • On‑target earnings: £48,000–£50,000, with additional upside for consistently exceptional performance. Strong performers typically earn in the top end of this range. • Click “Apply Now” on this page and complete the short application form. • If it looks like a potential fit, we’ll invite you to record a short video about your experience and why this role is right for you. • From there, shortlisted candidates will be invited into our interview process and a paid trial day to make sure it's a fit on both sides. • If you want to use your artistry to help everyday women unleash confidence and live their best lives, we’d love to hear from you. • Due to the intimate nature of our work with female clients, this role has a genuine occupational requirement for female applicants under Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010.
