Overview
Backwoods Farmstead is looking for a creative, motivated student photographer and videographer to help us capture the daily beauty, grit, and growth of our private farmstead. We have an active and growing community of 15k+ followers on Instagram, and we need raw, high-quality visual assets to keep our audience engaged as we build toward our 2027 public launch. (Our website is currently private but will be going public soon!).
Responsibilities
- Travel to the farmstead in Roan Mountain to shoot high-quality photography and video of the property and animals
- Perform basic editing/color-correcting on selected photos and deliver organized digital files.
- Edit occasional short-form videos/reels
Qualifications

- Must have your own reliable transportation to Roan Mountain
- Must have your own camera equipment and video editing software (Adobe Premiere, CapCut, Lightroom, etc.)
- Must be comfortable working outdoors around livestock (cattle, sheep, poultry) and in changing weather conditions

Summer Months (Peak Season): On-site once a week.
Winter Months (Off-Peak Season): On-site every 2 to 3 weeks.
