Life as a Senior Photographer

You live and breathe visual storytelling and know how to craft premium imagery that makes brands stand out across social and digital channels. From flawless studio setups to fast, high-quality on-location shoots, you lead productions with confidence, precision, and a sharp creative eye.

 

We are looking for someone who will play an active role in shaping and nurturing the creative culture at LOOP. This includes being present in the studio, providing on-set direction, and supporting the development of junior talent. We want someone who sees the studio as their creative home—someone who thrives in a collaborative, hands-on environment and contributes to a vibrant everyday studio life.

  • Lead and execute high-end studio and on-site photo productions from concept to final delivery.
  • Own lighting setups end-to-end, with advanced strobe/flashlight expertise (mandatory).
  • Direct models and talent with ease to achieve strong poses, natural performances, and consistent visual language.
  • Translate conceptual ideas into impactful, brand-relevant visuals for campaigns and always-on content.
  • Collaborate closely with Producers, Content Strategists, Social Brand Teams, Videographers, and Editors to develop and deliver innovative creative solutions.
  • Ensure efficient workflows across production and post-production, maintaining top-tier image quality and consistency.
  • Oversee selection, basic grading, and handover for retouching; contribute to retouching where needed.
  • Handle gear responsibly and keep sets and processes organized and production-ready.
  • Stay ahead of social media, content, and photography trends, applying them in a way that fits each brand.
  • Senior-level experience in high-end studio and on-location photography.
  • Actively contribute to shaping and nurturing LOOP’s creative studio culture and maintain a strong presence in the studio and foster a collaborative, hands-on environment.
  • Lead creatively on set and provide clear direction during productions and support, mentor, and elevate junior talent within the team.
  • Help make the studio a true creative “home” where ideas and teamwork thrive
  • Advanced flash/strobe lighting knowledge and the ability to choose and build the right setup for any situation.
  • Confident model direction and an instinct for styling, movement, and expression.
  • Strong expertise in Photoshop, Lightroom, and Capture One.
  • A refined aesthetic sense for composition, detail, color, and consistent imagery.
  • Proven ability to shape concepts into premium content that performs across platforms.
  • Experience consulting and working with major brands, leading shoots independently.
  • Highly organized working style, with respect for company equipment and processes.
  • Excellent understanding of social media and content trends, especially for product, lifestyle, beauty, and food brands.
  • Willingness to travel frequently and possession of a category B driving license.
  • Advanced retouching skills (beauty/product/food/automotive) and experience working with mixed content productions (photo + video sets).
  • Strong interest in new tools, workflows, and trend-driven content formats.

At LOOP, we believe great work deserves fair pay — and that transparency builds trust. For this role, the gross annual starting salary (full-time, based in Austria) is EUR 50,000. That’s our baseline for candidates who meet the key requirements. If you bring more to the table — deeper experience, sharper skills — we’re ready to reflect that in your offer. Our internal compensation framework is designed to keep things fair, structured, and clear.
