DanceBUG Inc.

Job Description

Freelance Photographer

Get paid to travel and photograph some of North America's largest dance competitions.

DanceBUG is hiring experienced photographers for our February–June competition season . If you have experience shooting sports, concerts, dance or other fast-moving live events, we'll train you on our workflow and the world of dance photography.

You shoot. We handle the editing.

Why You'll Love It

Starting at $25/hour
Guaranteed minimum daily and event pay
Paid travel days
Flights, hotels and rental cars paid by DanceBUG
Private hotel room
Meals or per diem provided
Up to $700 equipment stipend
Paid training
No editing required
Consistent weekend opportunities throughout the season

Season: February–June
Typical Travel: Thursday/Friday through Sunday/Monday
Events: Throughout the United States

What You'll Do

Photograph fast-moving dance performances under changing stage lighting
Capture sharp, well-timed action images
Work alongside DanceBUG's media team at live competitions
Back up, transfer and upload images using DanceBUG's workflow

We'll Train You

Dance photography experience is not required.

Every new photographer receives virtual training in January followed by at least two live training events alongside experienced Senior Photographers before working independently.

If you know how to photograph action, we'll teach you dance.

Photography Experience

We're looking for photographers experienced with fast-moving subjects such as:

Sports • Dance • Concerts • Theatre • Gymnastics • Figure Skating • Cheerleading • Live Events

You should be comfortable shooting in manual mode with continuous autofocus (Servo/AF-C) under changing lighting conditions.
