Art Director

Squareshot – tech-enabled product photography service with studios in NY & LA.

Since 2017, we’ve delivered 50K+ images for 2,500+ brands, including WHOOP, Farmacy Beauty, Sweetgreen, Serena Williams’ WYN Beauty, Will Smith’s Bel-Air Athletics, and more.

E-commerce doesn’t exist without visuals. We’re building the easiest way to get them online.

We’re looking for an Art Director to lead creative direction for our Subscription clients. You’ll translate brand strategy into shoot concepts, moodboards, and creative guidelines — ensuring each campaign feels fresh, on-brand, and conversion-focused. You’ll work closely with producers, photographers, and retouchers to deliver high-quality assets that help D2C brands grow.

What you’ll do

• Develop monthly photoshoot concepts based on the client's needs.
• Build moodboards, references, and clear creative briefs for studio teams.
• Collaborate with photographers, stylists, and retouchers to bring concepts to life.
• Maintain creative consistency across catalog, lifestyle, and campaign imagery.
• Keep a pulse on e-commerce, content, and visual trends to inspire clients.
• Communicate with clients (when needed) to refine direction and ensure alignment.

Must-have skills

• 3+ years in art direction, content creation, or creative strategy for e-commerce brands.
• Strong portfolio demonstrating product, lifestyle, and campaign concepting.
• Experience building moodboards and briefs that guide production teams.
• Deep understanding of visual storytelling, branding, and marketing needs.
• Ability to balance creative ambition with client goals and production realities.

Nice to have

• Hands-on experience in photography or styling.
• Familiarity with performance marketing (how creative impacts ROAS/CTR).
• Knowledge of Figma and Adobe Creative Suite.
• Experience directing shoots (on set or remote).

We offer

• A healthy environment where mutual respect is key.
• Flexible work schedule. We track results, not time.
• We focus on keeping the level of stress as low as possible.
• Courses and qualification upgrades you require to meet your professional goals.
• No bureaucracy. We make decisions fast.
• You’ll have a direct impact on a product and the company’s end result.
• Freedom and resources to experiment and test ideas.
• Strong and humane team.
• Growth path into the Creative Director role.
