Overview We are seeking seeking an exceptionally creative, polished, and visually sophisticated Personal Brand Content Producer & Creative Director to help develop and execute an elevated personal and professional lifestyle brand. This is not a traditional social media manager position. The ideal candidate is a highly visual storyteller who can help conceptualize, stage, photograph, film, and produce compelling lifestyle content in real-world settings—from professional and philanthropic engagements to restaurants, cultural events, travel, real estate, and everyday moments. The desired aesthetic is editorial, sophisticated, warm, authentic, and understated luxury —more Vogue, Ralph Lauren, Town & Country, and luxury editorial than traditional influencer content. The position will primarily involve work throughout Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Paradise Valley, with occasional assignments in Prescott and other Northern Arizona locations.

You may currently work as a photographer, videographer, creative director, content creator, stylist, brand photographer, or social media producer—or combine several of these disciplines. You should be comfortable working independently and taking creative initiative. We are looking for someone who can walk into a room or event and immediately recognize the best light, background, composition, moment, and story. You should also be comfortable providing thoughtful direction. We want a creative collaborator who will say, when appropriate, "Let's shoot here," "This lighting is better," "Try this instead," or "This would make a great Reel."
