Part-time: Starting at approximately 18 hours per week, increasing as training and the role develop

We have a rare opportunity for an experienced Studio Portrait Photographer to join our small, friendly team in Horsforth.

We are a family-run portrait studio with over 30 years’ experience, photographing everything from newborn babies and families through to makeover and boudoir photography.

This is a varied role and definitely more than simply taking photographs.

You will gradually be trained to work across:

Portrait photography

Client bookings and follow-up

Telephone and CRM communication

Client viewing appointments

Helping clients choose their favourite photographs and artwork

We are not a hard-sell studio. Great people skills, warmth and empathy are incredibly important to us.

Who We’re Looking For

You must have:

At least 2 years’ non-student experience photographing people

A strong portrait photography portfolio

A warm, chatty and empathetic personality

Excellent face-to-face communication skills

Confidence speaking to clients on the telephone

Confidence using messaging and CRM systems

A smart and professional appearance

Excellent reliability and timekeeping

The ability to work as part of a small team

Easy and reliable access to our studio in Horsforth, Leeds

Due to the nature of our boudoir photography, the role includes working closely with female clients during very personal and sensitive sessions, so discretion, professionalism and the ability to make clients feel completely comfortable are essential.

Working Hours

The role will begin at approximately 18 hours per week and is expected to increase to around 24 hours once fully trained, with the potential to grow further as the role develops.

Initially, you will be expected to work:

Saturdays

Sundays

Selected weekdays

1–2 evenings per week

Once fully trained, weekend working will be shared on a rota, although at least one weekend day will normally still be required.

What We Offer

A rare opportunity to join an established portrait studio

Full training in our studio systems and photographic style

Development across photography, bookings and client viewings

The chance to become an important member of a small team of portrait specialists

Free parking

Starting pay based on National Minimum Wage

Additional bonus opportunities once fully trained

Interested?

Please send us your CV together with a short introduction about yourself and your photography experience.

You must also include a link to your portrait photography portfolio.

We would love to hear from experienced portrait photographers who enjoy working with clients and want to become part of a busy, professional and friendly portrait studio.
