Join the LBP Team

Lizzie Burger Photography is always looking to connect with talented, dependable creatives to join our team. Most weddings take place throughout New York City and the tri-state area and typically require 8–12 hours of coverage. Team members must be comfortable working in a fast-paced wedding environment and collaborating seamlessly to provide an elevated client experience.

All photographers are required to have their own professional equipment, including a mirrorless camera and flash, and be confident shooting in a variety of lighting conditions.

If you’re passionate about wedding photography, value professionalism, and enjoy working as part of a supportive, detail-driven team, I’d love to hear from you.
