Contribute creatively to the production of various media, from social ads to unique campaign ideas, while being a core part of Shinesty's vibrant creative team.
At Shinesty, our mission is to force the world to take itself less seriously. We make people laugh first and sell second. Our mothers don’t always approve of what we do, but the millions of people we’ve entertained over the years do.
We’re looking for a Photographer / Videographer who is just as much a content creator as they are a shooter.
This is not a “stand behind the camera and wait for direction” role. We want someone who contributes creatively, someone who can pitch ideas, build shot lists, create mood boards, and help bring weird, funny, bold concepts to life.
You’ll be part of the creative team, not just supporting it.
This role is roughly 60% video and 40% photography, and both are critical to the brand. One day you might be shooting paid social ads. The next you might be shooting on an iphone in the condom aisle at Target with our social media guy. Or you might be helping execute a bizarre campaign idea involving inflatable hot tubs, ranch animals, and definitely people in their underwear.
We create a lot of content, and we move fast. The right person for this role is someone who loves being behind the camera, thinks creatively, and isn’t afraid to figure things out as they go.
Concept and shoot video content for paid social ads, campaigns, and brand storytelling across platforms like Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and occasionally TV.
Work alongside creative strategists, production coordinators, creative directors, and designers to bring ideas to life.
Capture short-form video designed to stop thumbs, make people laugh, and leave a memorable impression of the Shinesty brand.
Operate cameras, lighting, audio, and production gear to execute shoots efficiently.
Run smaller shoots independently when needed.
Hand off raw footage to our in-house video editing team.
Concept and shoot Ecomm & lifestyle imagery for marketing campaigns, ads, social media and web.
Work in both studio and on-location environments to produce strong visual assets.
Help maintain a consistent visual identity across product and campaign photography.
Own your still images from capture to final delivery.
You should be able to edit, color correct, and finish photography to a polished final state before handing off assets and uploading them to servers and websites.
Sometimes the idea is too weird or too expensive to shoot.
When that happens, we use AI tools to help bring concepts to life.
Experience with AI image generation or an interest in learning is a big plus.
This role is not just about executing ideas, it's about helping create them.
You should be comfortable:
• Pitching content ideas
• Creating shot lists and mood boards
• Translating creative concepts into visual executions
• Thinking about how content will perform on social platforms
We want someone who helps shape the content, not just capture it.
Requirements
We’re a lean team, so attitude matters. We want someone who is hungry, positive, and excited to make great content.
• Paid social video ads
• Ecommerce product photography
• Short-form video for TikTok or Instagram
• Models, talent… or very confused coworkers
Every applicant, regardless of background or years of experience.
We don’t want the perfect resume.
We want the right person.
Someone who:
• Gets the Shinesty brand
• Loves being behind the camera
• Works well with a creative team
• Wants to make great content and improve every day
Fill out the application and show us your work.
We’ve hired ant farmers with great portfolios before (seriously).
We want to see examples of things you’ve shot, including:
• Professional work
• Personal projects
• Freelance work
• Social media content
• Something you shot for fun
• Something you made yesterday
Basically anything that shows you know how to pick up a camera and create something interesting.
