PHOTOGRAPHER NEEDED

New Times Media Group is looking for its next photographer—someone with a knack for capturing the candid, an expert in the art of taking environmental portraits, and a passionate advocate for photojournalism. We’re looking for a curious soul who’s interested in capturing the images that will help us tell the stories that our community needs to hear, a photojournalist who can encapsulate the essence of the news with a single image. Our next photographer should understand why local journalism is important, shoot with an eye for details big and small, believe in honesty and integrity, and have the ability to hit a hard deadline.

This is a part-time, assignment-based position (with hours that vary from week to week) that shoots photos for two weekly newspapers, the Sun and New Times, with a coverage area that stretches through San Luis Obispo County and Northern Santa Barbara County. Other assignments may include shooting photos for our Menus Magazine.

If you’re into AI, no need to apply! If you think using Adobe Photoshop is the only way to craft a perfect image, you’d best look elsewhere.

Please send a resume, cover letter, and a portfolio of published images to crucker@newtimesslo.com.
