COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHER (VISUAL ARCHIVIST)

Toronto / Remote / For photographers who create atmospheres, not images

SIGNA is looking for a Commercial Photographer who shoots with intention, obsession, and emotional voltage. We don’t want someone who “documents.” We want someone who constructs moments that feel inevitable, someone who knows how to use light, shadow, texture, and distortion to tell the truth a brand didn’t know it had.

If your photos look like stills from a film no one has made yet, you’re in the right place.

WHAT YOU DO HERE

You capture the visual mythology of SIGNA and its clients.
You shoot campaigns, portrait sessions, product worlds, atmospheric scenes, locations, textures — anything that becomes part of our signal.
You collaborate with art direction and strategy to craft visual languages that live beyond the frame.
You build images that don’t just look good — they feel like something.

WHAT WE EXPECT

– A portfolio with soul, intention, and point of view
– Ability to shoot clean commercial work and conceptual art
– Strong grasp of lighting (studio + natural)
– Understanding of narrative, color, composition, and emotional rhythm
– Comfort directing talent, shaping scenes, and making fast calls on set
– A style or instinct that is recognizable, even when subtle

WHO YOU ARE

You’re the kind of photographer who sees stories in walls, shadows, reflections, strangers, objects, mistakes — everywhere.
You don’t just take photos; you extract moments.
You think in moodboards, angles, lighting scenarios, and cinematic logic.
You bring ideas to life with your camera the way a writer brings them to life with words.
You’re obsessive about atmosphere.
You chase the shot until it gives up.

WHAT YOU GET

Projects that require taste, mood, and imagination.
Art direction that challenges you instead of boxing you in.
A studio that wants your vision, not your compliance.
A founder who shoots, directs, and understands how precious good photography is.

HOW TO APPLY

Send us a portfolio that shows your world — not your equipment.
