About the Role

Sterling Forever is looking for a talented Commercial Photographer/Videographer to join our creative team full-time, in person at our Boca Raton, FL studio.

This is an on-site position and is not remote or hybrid. Candidates must be able to work from our Boca Raton studio full-time, Monday - Friday 9am - 5pm.

We’re looking for a highly visual, hands‑on creative with a strong background in fashion, jewelry, beauty, or e‑commerce photography. A major focus of this role is creating compelling jewelry imagery and video; from styled flat lays and creative product compositions to on‑model photography, video, & lifestyle content.

What You’ll Do

• Shoot styled jewelry flat lays, creative product compositions, and campaign imagery.
• Shoot jewelry on models, including hands, ears, necklines, wrists, and full lifestyle/model imagery.
• Shoot short‑form video for social media, and website PDPs.
• Capture high‑quality product photography for e‑commerce, social media, digital advertising, email, campaigns, and retail partners.
• Set up and manage studio lighting, backdrops, cameras, and other production equipment.
• Work closely with the creative and social media marketing teams to develop assets needed for their channels.
• Direct models during shoots to achieve natural, elevated imagery that showcases the jewelry effectively.
• Help maintain visual consistency across product, lifestyle, campaign, and social content.
• Organize photography and video assets and maintain an efficient studio workflow.
• Help maintain an organized, shoot‑ready studio environment.
• Manage model communication, budgeting, and scheduling.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong portfolio demonstrating styled flat lay and on‑model photography.
• Professional experience in commercial, fashion, beauty, jewelry, or e‑commerce photography.
• Strong understanding of photographing small, highly detailed products such as jewelry.
• Excellent eye for styling, composition, lighting, color, and visual storytelling.
• Experience directing and photographing models in a studio environment.
• Strong studio lighting knowledge with the ability to create both clean commercial imagery and more editorial, campaign‑driven content.
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom or comparable professional editing software.
• Strong retouching skills, particularly for jewelry, products, and skin.
• Ability to work quickly and efficiently while maintaining a high level of attention to detail.
• Strong organizational and time‑management skills with the ability to manage multiple shoots, projects, and deadlines.
• Collaborative mindset and ability to take creative direction while also bringing new ideas to the table.
• Flexibility to accommodate occasional weekend photoshoots based on model availability or project timelines. Weekend shoots are not a regular requirement and are rare - when needed they typically expected only 2-3 times per calendar year.

Location Requirement

This is a full‑time, in‑person position based at Sterling Forever's studio in Boca Raton, Florida. This role requires regular hands‑on studio work, product styling, model shoots, and collaboration with our creative team and therefore cannot be performed remotely.

Candidates must be local to the Boca Raton/South Florida area or willing to relocate. Commuting from long distances may become a pain point of this job. Please consider this before applying.
