• Pre-Set Shooting Setups – Create efficient setups to minimize post-production time.
• Camera & Set Alignment – Ensure shots are level, products are clean, and details are crisp to achieve the best results. Thoughtful Shooting Process – Avoid rushing the initial stages; be mindful of all required shots to avoid re-shoots.
• Shot Angle Approval – Confirm angles for hero pack shots and food photography to ensure optimal presentation.

To be successful in this role, you must have:

• 5+ years of experience in commercial photography (Product, Still-Life, Creative, and Fashion).
• Expertise in Capture One & Adobe Photoshop, with strong colour correction and retouching skills.
• Strong communication skills – ability to interpret briefs and collaborate with multiple teams.
• Video editing and production knowledge is desirable.

Join a dynamic and creative environment where you'll work with industry-leading brands to produce high-impact visual content.
