Requirements

  • Proven experience as a product photographer (portfolio required).
  • Strong command of lighting, composition, and styling in a studio setting.
  • Proficient in Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, and Capture One.
  • Expertise in retouching and compositing to a commercial standard.

  • Understanding of eCommerce image requirements and optimisation.

    • Why WBWR?
