Join our photographers
Picster books private photoshoots and sends them to local photographers. You turn up and take the pictures. We handle the booking, the editing, the admin and the money.
The arrangement
No pitching, no invoicing, no chasing anyone for payment. The only part of the job you own is the part you actually trained for.
Turn up at the meeting point, on time, with your own kit.
Shoot for thirty to ninety minutes, depending on the package.
Make it easy — most people have never been photographed properly and need guiding.
Share a local tip or two. Where to eat, what to skip.
Upload the originals the same day.
Find the customer and take the booking.
Edit the photographs — our editors work around the clock.
Handle the customer before, during and after, in their language.
Deliver the gallery within 48 hours of the shoot.
Pay you weekly, including eligible no-show slots.
How a shoot goes
It appears in the app with the date, the location, the package and anything the customer has told us. You accept it or you don’t.
At the meeting point on the booking. Thirty to ninety minutes, somewhere you already know well.
Everything you shot, the same day. Our editors take it from there — you never edit a frame.
Weekly, on a fixed rate agreed before the shoot. Plus a share of eligible extras the customer adds on.
What you get
If the customer doesn’t turn up, you’re still paid for an eligible slot. You cleared your afternoon and travelled across the city — that shouldn’t be your problem.
No invoicing, no late payers, no awkward emails. One weekly payment, to your account, on a rate you agreed before you shot anything.
Send the originals and walk away. Our editing operation runs around the clock so the customer has their gallery inside 48 hours.
The Eiffel Tower, the Grand Canal, the Maspalomas dunes, the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. Places you probably photograph anyway, with someone paying for it.
Take what suits you. Some of our photographers shoot four times a week, some four times a month.
Customers can upgrade to the full gallery on the day. When they do, you earn on it — our best photographers make a meaningful share of their income this way.
The work
“There’s always a workflow — and I don’t have to worry about selling the service.”
The crew
Experienced professionals, in their own words.
“There’s always a workflow, and I don’t have to worry about selling the service.”
“Flexible hours, thousands of travellers, and the mental peace of working with a reliable team. I do what I love with people I admire.”
“I get to share a bit of Rome’s history while taking photos — with couples and families from almost every corner of the world.”
“Picster lets photographers focus on what they do best, knowing there’s a reliable team working behind the scenes.”
“It connects me with travellers from all over the world, and lets me grow my business doing what I love.”
Who we’re looking for
Not just the obvious viewpoint — the one two streets away that’s empty at eight in the morning. And where to send someone for lunch afterwards.
You turn up, on time, in bad weather, and you upload the same day. Most of what makes a photographer good at this job isn’t photography.
Our customers are mostly not comfortable in front of a camera. The photographers our customers name in reviews are the ones who made it fun.

Required fields
Before you apply
You shoot on your own kit. Our team will explain local insurance requirements during onboarding.
Your rate is agreed before you accept a shoot. Ask our team about current rates for your city and the available packages during onboarding.
It depends on the city and the season. Nobody is guaranteed volume or tied to a minimum.
No. Upload the originals and our editors handle the photographs. Standard delivery to the customer is within 48 hours of the shoot.
You’re paid for an eligible no-show slot at your agreed rate.
Yes. Tell us every city you can realistically reach in the application.
