About WBWR

WBWR is a bold, forward-thinking brand where creativity meets precision. We don’t do average
– our visuals are crafted to sell through style and stand out on every screen. If you thrive in a
space that blends aesthetic excellence with innovation, you’ll feel right at home.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a highly skilled Product Photographer to join our in-house creative team. You’ll
be shooting in our fully equipped on-site photo studio, collaborating directly with the marketing
and design teams to create scroll-stopping visuals.
The right person doesn’t just shoot products – they build stories through imagery, polish them
through expert retouching, and elevate them through creativity.
If you can also bring animation or motion design into the mix, that’s a serious advantage.

Key Responsibilities

● Shoot high-quality product and lifestyle imagery in studio and on location when needed.
● Manage lighting, styling, and composition to achieve consistent, high-end results.
● Handle retouching, colour correction, and advanced image manipulation to deliver
flawless visuals.
● Collaborate with the creative and marketing teams to bring concepts to life.
● Maintain the studio space, lighting gear, and workflow efficiency.
● (BONUS) Create animations, GIFs, or product motion sequences for campaigns.

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.
● Bonus points for animation / motion-graphic skills (After Effects or similar).
● Ability to manage multiple shoots and deadlines with precision.
● Organised, resourceful, and obsessed with visual detail.

Beneficial

● Experience in video or short-form product content.
● Familiarity with AI-assisted editing tools.
● Understanding of eCommerce image requirements and optimisation.

Why WBWR?

● Collaborate with a sharp, driven team that values creativity and quality over
bureaucracy.
● Be part of a brand that pushes boundaries in design, content, and execution.
● Opportunities for professional growth and skill development.
● Exciting projects with leading brands and businesses.
