Summer Camp Photographer

Description:

Camp is calling. This isn't just a summer job, it's a mission.

Spend your summer telling the story of Timber-lee one frame at a time. As a Photographer, you'll capture daily camp life, shoot weekly cabin photos, and build the visual record that campers and families keep long after the summer ends.

If you're looking for something that actually matters, not just a paycheck, this is it.

What You'll Do

Photograph daily camp life, programs, and activities

Take and print weekly camper cabin photos

Ensure balanced coverage of all cabins and departments

Edit, organize, and upload daily photo albums for web, social media, and marketing

$7.25/hour + housing and meals included

A summer of daily shooting and a portfolio to show for it

Live on-site with a built-in community

Hands-on experience with capture, editing, and delivering on a daily turnaround

A summer that impacts lives, including your own

Why This Role Matters

You'll spend the summer shooting every single day, which will make you better faster than any class could. You'll also be the reason a parent 300 miles away gets to see their kid laughing at dinner, and the reason a camper still has the cabin photo on their wall years from now. That's a summer worth having.

If you've got an eye for storytelling, love capturing candid joy, and thrive in a fast-paced creative setting, this is your shot.
