## Job description

We're a luxury, women's intimate portrait studio in East London. We help everyday women transform how they see themselves through powerful portrait experiences and artwork they keep for life. We've already guided more than 1,900 women through this journey. For many, it's been the most important, confidence‑shifting thing they did that year.

If you believe in high standards, hard work, and helping others win, you'll feel at home here.

Studio Vision We are building a house of world‑class women’s portrait artists. Women join us as photographers, learn a proven craft, and grow into creative leaders. We promote from within. You have to master one seat before you can move to the next. As we scale, our Seniors and Leads will come from the women shooting with us today. If you care about beauty, excellence, and helping other women see themselves differently, this is where you come to grow.

Who This Is For

- You are a strong studio or wedding photographer (2+ years) who can hold a calm, grounded space while you work.
- You want to make a real difference in women's lives
- You are extremely hard working
- You are looking for growth

## What We Offer You

- A pure craft role: No sales. No editing. Your job is running three powerful shoots a day, every day.
- Structured 90‑day ramp: Close coaching, clear milestones, and a simple scorecard so you know exactly what “good” looks like.
- Ongoing development: Weekly gallery reviews, 1‑1s, and calibration sessions to refine your eye and your presence.
- Performance‑based career growth: All photographers start in our Junior band on £36,000 base. Hit clear quality and guest‑experience standards and you progress to Core Photographer at £40,000+ in your first year. As we grow, Seniors and Leads earn £45,000–£60,000 OTE.
- An all‑female floor team: Stylists, photographers, and leaders who genuinely want you to win.

## What We Expect From You

## Responsibilities

- High work ethic (long days and regular weekends)
- Direct and pose everyday women with calm, grounded leadership so they feel safe, supported, and genuinely seen.
- Keep sets, wardrobe, gear, and the studio floor immaculate every shift.
- Log clear notes after every guest so the rest of the team can do their best work downstream.
- Engage fully in training: implement feedback, attend gallery reviews, and develop your craft weekly.
- Be a team player who makes the people around you better.

Results

- Run 3 high‑touch emotional sessions per day to our timing, gallery, and guest‑experience standards.
- Maintain gallery quality that gives each guest plenty of strong, saleable images to build artwork they’re proud to live with.
- Keep your guest scores at or above studio baseline, with minimal re‑shoots and clean file hygiene.

## Requirements

- 2+ years of experience in studio photography or weddings, ideally in intimate, boudoir, or luxury portrait environments.
- Confident directing and posing non‑models with empathy and emotional presence.
- Strong technical skills across exposure, focus, composition, and studio lighting.
- Excellent time management: able to run emotionally intense back‑to‑back sessions without rushing the guest.
- Open to learning and following a proven process before suggesting changes to it.

Location

- East London studio, in‑person only.
- Full‑time, five days per week including most weekends.

## Compensation

- Starting band: Junior Photographer (all new hires start here while you learn our style and systems).
- Base salary: £36,000.
- On‑target earnings year 1: £40,000
- Progression: Once you consistently hit our Core Photographer standards, your base rises to £40,000+ and your bonus potential increases. Our top performers then grow into Senior and Lead bands on £45,000–£60,000 OTE as the studio scales.

How to Apply Click “Apply Now” on this page and complete the short application form.

If it looks like a potential fit, we’ll invite you to record a short video about your experience and why this role is right for you. From there, shortlisted candidates will be invited into our interview process and a paid trial day to make sure it’s a fit on both sides.

If you want to use your artistry to help everyday women unleash confidence and to grow into a world‑class portrait artist yourself, we’d love to hear from you.

Due to the intimate nature of our work with female clients, this role has a genuine occupational requirement for female applicants under Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010.

- **Empowerment Group Shoots**: Sessions held at iconic locations where women participate in a group setting to step into their power alongside others.
- **Community & Events**: In-person events and gatherings focused on real stories, connection, and self-expression.

## Market Standing

- **Key Metric**: Total funding not disclosed; company appears bootstrapped. Annual revenue is not publicly available.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: No external investors identified – self-funded by founder.
- **Growth Signals**: Active hiring (8 open positions as of mid-2026), expanding from Australia to the UK, with reported transformation of 1,953+ women across both markets. [linkedin.com](https://uk.linkedin.com/company/body-soul-studios) [bodyandsoulstudios.uk](https://bodyandsoulstudios.uk/)

- **All-female, high-touch service model**: The entire team is female, creating a safe, empathetic environment that aligns with the brand’s empowerment mission.

- **Building a scalable team**: The 8 current job openings (as of mid-2026) cover sales, photography, makeup, and operations, indicating a push to standardise and grow the experience for more clients.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as a “tight-knit team obsessed with world-class art and how you feel along the way.” Core values include sincere candour, radical accountability, and uncompromising excellence. The company explicitly seeks “high-performing women who care as much about emotional safety as they do about world-class art.” [bodyandsoulstudios.uk](https://bodyandsoulstudios.uk/about/)
- **Remote/hybrid policy**: Some roles are listed as remote (e.g., Sales Rep), while photography and makeup roles are on-site in London. [ashbyhq.com](https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/bodysoul)
- **Notable perks**: Employees get to work directly with women on a transformative journey – a mission-driven environment. The founder, Abbey Madison, is actively involved, and the company offers flexible payment plans for clients (starting at $17/week), which indicates a customer-centric approach that may extend to staff flexibility.
