We are not looking for the most experienced person. We are looking for the right one. Someone hungry to grow, serving our mission, and ready to capture transformations on camera.
About the role:
Klemmer Leadership Training has been dedicated to creating bold, ethical leaders who will create a world that works for everyone, with no one left out, since 1995. We have approximately 16 or more events per year where we have a photographer/videographer on site. We are looking for the right individual to capture authentic, candid moments on video and in photos that reflect the power and energy of what happens in our training rooms. This is a rare opportunity to be in the trainings where it happens, not as a participant, as the person trusted to preserve those moments forever.
Technical videography skills are preferred over photography, though both matter. What we value most is someone who is motivated, can read a room, anticipate moments, and tell a story through a lens.
Pop-up studio filming opportunities may arise at least twice a year (November & June) at our San Diego event.
Who we are looking for:
This is not just a contract gig. It is a chance to surround yourself with a passionate, mission-driven team and witness transformations up close, across the country, multiple times a year. We want someone who is hungry to grow and who genuinely cares about personal development. The right fit matters as much as the right skill set.
Having your own professional gear is preferred. You get to be able to capture life happening candidly in the moment; think documentary or sports-style photography skills (or willing to learn this). Our previous event specialist is willing to work with our new videographer/photographer to grow their skills as they grow into the role. We are open to someone earlier in their career and craft who has the eye, the drive, and the character to grow with us. We are looking for someone who is ready to hit the ground running and can start within the next few weeks.
Contract details:
This is an independent contractor position (1099) requiring a flexible schedule built around our event calendar. You can expect approximately 16 or more events per year. Travel to training locations is covered by Klemmer, including but not limited to Bandera, Texas and San Diego, California. Living close to the San Antonio area is preferred but not required.
When applying, please include:
Portfolio or sample slideshow showcasing photography and videography work.
2 to 3 character references
