You don’t need to be a photographer. You need to be the kind of person who walks into a room and makes everyone feel like they belong.
Enchanted Fairies creates fine art portrait experiences for children, the kind that make a five-year-old believe they really are a knight, a princess, or a warrior. We have 35+ studios across the country, and we’re growing fast. This role helps us open new locations and keep existing ones running at their best.
Here’s the deal: You’ll travel. A lot. Some weeks you’re in a brand-new city helping launch a studio from scratch. Other weeks you’re stepping into an existing location to coach the team, steady operations, and protect the experience.
We’ll teach you our photography system. What we can’t teach is the ability to connect with a nervous parent, make a shy toddler laugh, and turn a 30-minute session into a memory that family talks about for years.
This is a full-time role with a Wednesday through Sunday schedule, and weekend availability is required. Travel is a regular part of the role, so flexibility is essential.
