School Photography Team Assistant (Seasonal)

Join Our Picture Day Team!
M Print Photography is currently hiring School Photography Team Assistants to help create an amazing picture day experience for local preschools and private schools.
This is an assistant position—not a photographer position. While photography experience is welcome, we are not currently hiring photographers. If your primary goal is to photograph sessions, build a photography portfolio, or be behind the camera, this position will not be the right fit.
We're looking for dependable team members who enjoy working with children, have a positive attitude, and are excited to support our photographers behind the scenes. As our company continues to grow, there may be opportunities to advance into other roles in the future.
This Position Is Perfect For
Stay-at-home moms
Retirees
Substitute teachers
Former teachers or teacher aides
Preschool and daycare teachers
Childcare professionals
Nannies
Individuals looking for flexible, seasonal weekday work
