About The Position

Casual Fridays is a digital marketing agency specializing in social media strategy, content production, and paid social for hotels, resorts, and hospitality brands across North America. We create elevated, lifestyle-driven content that helps hotels stand out, drive demand, and connect with guests in a more meaningful way. We’re looking for a talented Lifestyle Photographer & Videographer who thrives on capturing cinematic, real-world moments in hotels & resorts and their beautiful destinations. This is a hands-on, creative role for someone who loves being on-site, working fast, and delivering visuals that feel premium, natural, and intentional. ARE YOU IN? You live for being behind the camera and feel most energized when you’re on property, moving through a hotel or resort and capturing moments as they happen. You have a sharp eye for composition, lighting, and pacing — and you know how to turn everyday hotel experiences into content that feels aspirational and evokes emotion. You’re confident running solo on shoots, making creative decisions in the moment, and adapting quickly in real-world environments. You’re not interested in churning out basic social content. You care deeply about quality and take pride in delivering work that clearly exceeds standard iPhone or UGC-style capture. You enjoy collaborating with a creative team but value autonomy and trust when you’re on-site. You love travel, fast-paced shoot days, and the challenge of capturing authentic guest-focused moments without over-directing or overproducing. Our ideal candidate has hands-on experience capturing and editing lifestyle photo and video content — ideally in hospitality, travel, or lifestyle-focused environments. You’re comfortable operating cinematic camera setups, shooting run-and-gun content efficiently, and editing both long-form and short-form assets with a polished finish. You understand how hotels work, how guests move through spaces, and how to blend into an environment to capture natural moments. You’re organized, reliable, and clear in your communication around shoot logistics, timelines, and deliverables. You collaborate well with social media teams and can offer practical guidance on framing, composition, and visual storytelling. This is a full-time, work-from-home role based in Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX, with travel 1-3 times per month to shoot hotels and resorts on location. No two shoots are the same at Casual Fridays. You’ll work closely with agency leadership and account teams to execute content that aligns with each client’s brand, goals, and creative direction — while owning how that content is captured from a technical and creative standpoint. This role is not focused on managing social accounts, calendars, or strategy. You are a dedicated shooter and editor whose primary responsibility is producing best-in-class lifestyle visuals.
