• Organize finished photo and video assets and track shoot requests through ClickUp
• Keep the studio, equipment, and props clean and shoot-ready
• Build your skills toward a Photographer or Videographer role over time

• Basic skills with a DSLR or mirrorless camera and studio lighting
• Basic proficiency in Adobe Photoshop
