This is not your typical production gig. As our in-house Videographer/Photographer, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the visual language of our agency and the brands we represent. From concept to completion, you'll bring stories to life across a variety of platforms—commercials, branded content, social media, digital campaigns and documentary-style pieces.

We’re looking for someone who thinks in scenes, not just shots. Someone who can build emotion through a lens and elevate brand messaging through narrative filmmaking.

  • Conceptualize, shoot and edit video content and still photography for a wide range of clients and campaigns
  • Participate in creative brainstorming and work closely with team members (copywriters, designers, art directors, account management, marketing and media) to bring story-driven concepts to life
  • Direct talent, stage environments and craft lighting setups for both on-location and in-studio shoots
  • Edit raw footage into polished video pieces, with a focus on pacing, tone and narrative clarity
  • Maintain agency-owned gear and ensure best practices in file management, backup and post-production workflow
  • Stay current with trends in visual storytelling, advertising and technology (e.g., drones, gimbals, camera systems)
  • Assist with storyboarding, shot listing and scripting

We require:

  • 5+ years of professional experience in photography, videography or filmmaking—preferably in an agency or studio setting
  • A strong portfolio that demonstrates both technical proficiency and emotional storytelling in video and stills
  • Proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Lightroom, Audition) and Final Cut Pro
  • Deep understanding of lighting, composition and camera operation (DSLRs, camera systems, etc.)
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to direct subjects confidently and respectfully
  • Strong time management skills
  • A collaborative spirit and proactive mindset

Nice-to-Have:

  • Drone certification (Part 107) and experience with aerial photography
  • Motion graphics, animation and/or audio-engineering skills
  • Experience in documentary-style filming or branded content
  • Creative collaboration with a fun, driven team
  • Access to professional-grade gear and editing tools
  • Opportunities to work on high-profile client projects
  • A culture that values creativity, collaboration and kindness
  • Competitive salary, benefits and professional development opportunities
