The Shutter Circle Job Board is a platform that connects established wedding pros as well budding photographers and videographers. New photographers and videographers looking to find their feet within the industry have the potential to find shadowing opportunities to level up their game. Which is ideal if you are a beginner. If you’re more experienced and want to put yourself out there as a second shooter, whether this be to earn some extra cash on the side or to let go of the editing backlog, then the Shutter Circle Job Board is for you!
We totally understand that facebook is free but where we differ is that our platform allows you to filter out applicants based on your desired equipment, brand style and location. Saving you hassle of having to scroll through 100’s of applicants like facebook comment section. This is also where the handy review system comes in. If you’re able to show what a confident shooter you are and how helpful / reliable you are on the day, then your reviews will back this up!
What sets us apart is that you can search the applicants who applied for the job that you have posted. Other platforms have a great members directory but it means having to search each person and contact to find out their availability. Whereas with us, applicants only apply if they know they have availability.

They can filter results based on style, camera brand and location. Interested individuals can then browse these listings, apply for positions that match their skills and availability, and connect with photographers directly.
