The Opportunity
We’re looking for an experienced associate photographer who is as passionate about people as about photography. Every Hudson Wren session should feel relaxed, unhurried, and fun.

- Keep the studio clean and session ready
- Travel to pop-up locations as scheduled

What We’re Looking For

- What We’re Looking For
- At least 5 years of professional experience photographing children, families, and pets. Strobe experience is very valuable.
- Able to confidently lead and control the session, directing families, children, and pets with warmth while keeping the pace relaxed and on track




- A natural gift for calming and engaging children and putting nervous adults at ease
- Confident with a DSLR or mirrorless camera in manual mode
- Patient, positive, and energetic, even when sessions get lively
- Reliable, punctual, organized, and comfortable working independently
- Strong communication skills and a cooperative attitude
- Customer service experience is essential
