JOB OVERVIEW

We're a small creative studio. Our work includes managing photo archives, organizing drives, shoot folders, selecting, processing and uploading stock photography.

We need a creative + organized VA, with photography culling and tagging skills, who can handle a complete content production workflow — from camera roll culling to color grading / retouching, to file management (in a CMS, adding the correct fields + tags)

1. CMS Organization
• In our CMS images outstanding, apply the correct metadata fields + tags
• For incorrect Filenames, rename it following our standardized naming conventions
• In Notion, use the correct mappings for each location’s field/tags, flagging any that need review

2. (Capture One, Adobe Bridge) Culling & Selection of Stock Photos
Reviewing large photo sessions (1,000–2,000+ images) to identify for stock photography, the best images:
• In Capture One, cull through photo galleries, folder by folder -
• Color tag and rate commercially viable stock images (no recognizable people or places, no logos / brands - if possible, crop peoples faces and eyes, retouch out logos / brands )
• Color grade + clean up / retouching to match style reference, shots on our portfolio site.

STOCK PHOTO SELECTION CRITERIA
For stock culling work, you should understand what makes an image commercially viable:

Strong stock candidates:
• Crisp, well-composed images
• No visible logos, brand names, or copyrighted artwork
• People from behind, silhouetted, blurred, could be cropped so they are non-recognizable -
• Images where minor logos could be cloned out or retouched

Avoid:
• Recognizable faces without model releases
• Big brand logos or trademarks
• Similar to our existing stock archive images

REQUIREMENTS
Must Have:
• Capture One, Bridge — culling, color grading, ratings
• Photoshop (or similar) — clean up / remove objects
