Product Photographer Needed – Beauty / Ecommerce Photography

I’m looking for a UK-based product photographer to create professional ecommerce and lifestyle images for HYGEA BEAUTY, a beauty brand selling premium makeup blending sponges at an affordable price.

Website: hygeabeauty.com

The images will be used across our Shopify website, Meta/TikTok ads, email marketing and social media.

**PRODUCT**

Our main product is a pack of 5 reusable makeup sponges, available in:

* Multicolour
* Black

We sell 1-pack, 2-pack and 3-pack bundles.

I can send sealed retail packs, which you can open as loose sponges too for styling and application shots.

**WHAT I NEED**

I’m looking for around **15–20 fully edited images**, combining:
1. Clean product shots
- Multicolour and Black packaging
- 5 sponges arranged together
- Individual sponge hero shots
- Packaging + loose sponges
- 1-pack, 2-pack and 3-pack presentations

2. Detail shots
- Sponge texture and softness
- Shape and pointed tip
- Close-up/macro images

3. Lifestyle/creative shots
- Vanity/dressing-table styling
- Flat lays
- Sponges with makeup/foundation
- Product held naturally in hand
- Premium beauty-style compositions

4. Application shots
- Ideally 1–3 images showing the sponge being used, for example blending foundation on a hand or face.

A full professional model shoot isn’t essential if it pushes the cost up significantly.

5. Style
I want the images to feel: Clean, Modern, ,Premium, Feminine, Suitable for a modern DTC beauty brand

Please avoid generic Amazon-style photography or AI-generated replacements of the actual product/packaging.

**DELIVERABLES**

Please include:
- High-resolution edited images
- Web-optimised Shopify versions
- Square crops
- Some 4:5 portrait crops for social/ads
- A few landscape images for website banners
- White/transparent background versions where suitable
- Commercial usage rights
- Professional retouching, colour correction and background clean-up

**BUDGET**

My budget is around £150, with some flexibility up to approximately £250 for someone with a strong beauty/product photography portfolio.

Quality is more important than receiving lots of average images.

**When applying**

Please include:
1. Examples of your product photography
2. Beauty/cosmetics work if available
3. Number of edited images included
4. Whether styling/props are included
5. Whether you can provide simple hand/application shots
6. Turnaround time
7. Your location
8. Any creative ideas after viewing hygeabeauty.com

Please avoid generic proposals. Relevant portfolio examples are important.

There may also be ongoing work as we expand the HYGEA product range.
