Fresh 48 Hospital Photographer (with In-Person Sales) - Arcadia
About The Position
Bella Baby Photography is hiring a friendly, outgoing, and creative Fresh 48 Hospital Photographer to photograph newborns and their families during the first 24–48 hours after birth. This onsite, hospital-based role combines photography with in-person sales: the photographer guides families through a comfortable portrait experience, presents photo packages and products, and helps parents select keepsakes. The role involves working independently in a hospital while collaborating with hospital staff and the photography team, and providing warm, professional, and compassionate service. Paid training and ongoing opportunities to develop photography, sales, newborn safety and care, and relationship-building skills are provided. Pay is the higher of hourly pay or commissions on sales in each pay period. Estimated earnings are $600–$900 per pay period, paid twice monthly, with additional opportunities for tips and performance-based bonuses. The schedule starts at 9 AM and is planned to end at 5 PM, though daily hours may vary based on births and business needs. This is a part-time role for 2–3 days per week, including at least one weekday and one weekend day. Monthly schedules are posted six weeks in advance, and some holidays are required. Employment is contingent on passing a background check and drug screen.
