**About Us**
Harlem Brands, Inc. is the parent company of Harlem Candle Company and Harlem Perfume Co., two luxury lifestyle brands rooted in the cultural legacy of the Harlem Renaissance. Our visual identity is central to everything we do - from our Sephora presence to our social media storytelling - and we are looking for a talented editor who can bring our brand world to life through compelling photo and video content.
**Role Overview**
We are seeking a skilled and self-directed Photo & Video Editor to join our creative team on a remote, contract basis. The ideal candidate is a natural storyteller with a sharp eye for luxury aesthetics, a strong command of editing tools, and the ability to work independently from raw assets through to final delivery across multiple platforms.
**Photo Editing Responsibilities**
- Curate and select the strongest images from model and product shoot galleries
- Edit lifestyle and campaign images featuring models with perfume bottles and candles, including skin retouching, color grading, and background refinement
- Edit product-only images in lifestyle settings with attention to light, shadow, and brand aesthetic
- Make precise adjustments to logos and labels on perfume bottles and candle vessels to ensure accuracy, consistency, and visual polish across all assets
**Video Editing Responsibilities**
- Edit raw event footage into polished recap and brand storytelling videos
- Produce high-converting video ads for Google and Meta
- Create platform-optimized content for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube, including short-form and long-form formats
- Apply color grading, sound design, music selection, captions, and motion graphics as needed
- Deliver final files in all required formats, aspect ratios, and specifications for each platform (1:1, 4:5, 9:16, 16:9)
**Requirements**
- Proven experience in photo and video editing for a luxury, beauty, or lifestyle brand
- Proficiency in Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, Premiere Pro, and After Effects (or equivalent tools)
- Strong storytelling ability — you understand how to build narrative and emotion through imagery and editing rhythm
- Ability to work independently, manage deadlines, and communicate proactively without close supervision
- Experience editing product photography with labels, logos, and packaging
- Deep understanding of platform-specific video formats, specs, and best practices for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Google, and Meta
- Portfolio demonstrating beauty, lifestyle, or luxury brand work is required
**Nice to Have**
- Experience working with fragrance, beauty, or CPG brands
- Familiarity with Sephora or prestige retail visual standards
- Motion graphics or animation skills
- Experience editing content for culturally-driven or heritage brands
