Creative Content Designer + Photographer — Fashion / Festival Brand
Los Angeles, CA | Part-Time / Freelance to Start | Ongoing
SugarFur is a growing Los Angeles fashion brand creating light-up faux fur coats, accessories, and wearable tech for festivals, nightlife, events, and people who generally refuse to blend in.
We’re looking for a creative photographer + graphic designer/content creator with a genuinely great eye to help us elevate the visual side of the brand.
Our product is visually insane. It glows, changes colors, moves differently in different lighting, and gets a reaction everywhere it goes. We know it deserves to be photographed and presented in a way that actually does it justice.
Because of that, we do not want to work with just anyone.
We’re looking for someone who sees the product and immediately understands the potential. Someone who can see the vision behind the brand, appreciate what makes it special, and help us bring that vision to life in a way that feels elevated, intentional, creative, and unmistakably SugarFur.
We don’t want someone who just waits for a shot list and checks boxes.
We want someone who says:
“Wait .. I have an idea.”
Someone who can take what’s already in our founder’s head, add their own creative perspective, and help turn it into something even better.
This is not a super corporate role. We want someone who gets the scene — festivals, house/techno, nightlife, fashion, LA culture, content, and internet trends. Someone who can look at a product and immediately start thinking about how to shoot it, style it, crop it, and turn it into something people want.
What You’ll Help With
- Product photography for our website
- On-model fashion/lifestyle shoots
- Creative campaign photography
- Website banners and homepage graphics
- Product page graphics and imagery
- Meta/social ad creatives
- Email graphics
- Retouching and color correction
- Helping develop a more consistent visual identity across the brand
- Brainstorming shoot concepts, locations, styling, props, models, and content ideas
- Creating both polished e-commerce imagery AND fun, attention-grabbing creative
Experience shooting LEDs, neon, nighttime photography, faux fur, reflective materials, or unusual lighting is a huge plus.
Who We’re Looking For
You probably:
- Have a strong portfolio that immediately shows your creative eye
- Understand fashion and e-commerce photography
- Know Photoshop/Lightroom and graphic design tools
- Have strong instincts around composition, color, typography, styling, and visual storytelling
- Can create polished work without everything needing to be micromanaged
- Understand social media and what actually catches someone's attention
- Can bounce between clean product photography and more creative/editorial work
- Live in the LA area and can work with us in person for shoots
- Are reliable, organized, collaborative, and able to actually finish projects
- Aren’t afraid of pink, faux fur, disco balls, LEDs, weird ideas, or being a little extra
Bonus points if you actually go to festivals, shows, clubs, raves, fashion events, or are already part of the creative/nightlife community.
We want someone who understands our customer because you’re around them in real life.
The Creative Relationship Matters
This is important to us:
We want a creative partner, not just a service provider.
Our founder is very hands-on creatively and already has a strong vision for where the brand can go. The right person will be able to understand that vision quickly, help refine it, challenge it when there’s a better idea, and then actually execute it.
There should be excitement on both sides.
If you look at SugarFur and think, “I could make this look incredible,” that’s exactly the reaction we want.
About the Role
This would start as a part-time/freelance position with ongoing work.
We’re a growing startup, so we don’t have giant corporate or agency budgets yet — and we want to be upfront about that.
At the same time, this is not a one-off shoot.
We’re looking for someone we genuinely click with who can become an important part of the brand creatively. There is real room for this role to grow as the company grows.
You’ll also have much more creative freedom than you would in a lot of traditional jobs.
We actually want your ideas.
If you see something and think, “Wait, we should shoot it like THIS,” we want to hear it.
And, objectively, it’s a pretty fun job.
You’ll be photographing glowing clothes, planning weird shoots, making website campaigns, going to cool locations, creating festival content, and helping shape the visual world of a growing fashion brand.
To Apply
Please send:
- Your portfolio
- Instagram / creative social accounts, if relevant
- A little about yourself
- Your experience with photography + graphic design
- Your general freelance/hourly/day rate
- Your availability
- 3 examples of work that best represent your personal creative style
And answer these two questions:
1. What part of the LA / festival / music / fashion scene are you into?
2. After looking at SugarFur, what is one creative idea you immediately have for the brand?
We care much more about your taste, creativity, instincts, and portfolio than having the perfect résumé.
Pay: $26.00 - $32.00 per hour
Expected hours: 10.0 – 20.0 per week
Work Location: In person

Tips for Your Brand Designer Job Search
Showcase systems thinking in your portfolio
Brand designers who show full identity systems, not just logos, land more interviews. Include brand guidelines, color systems, typography choices, and real-world mockups together so hiring managers can see how your work holds up across contexts.
Tailor your case studies to each application
When applying to a DTC brand, lead your portfolio with packaging or retail work. When applying to a SaaS company, lead with digital and product brand work. Rearranging what appears first signals that you understand the company's actual design context.
Filter openings by specialization not just title
Job listings for brand designers often use different titles: brand identity designer, visual designer, brand creative, or even art director. Search across these variants so you don't miss roles that match your skills but use a different label.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists brand designer openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare to talk through one project in depth
Most brand design interviews include a portfolio walkthrough where you're expected to explain your design decisions, not just show the output. Pick one project you can walk through from brief to final deliverable, including what changed and why.
Negotiate using scope, not just base pay
When you receive an offer, ask about project ownership, whether you'll work on brand strategy alongside execution, and what the review and approval process looks like. These factors affect your day-to-day work quality and career growth as much as compensation.
Brand Designer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most brand designers?
The companies hiring the most brand designers right now include Meta, Amazon, and Pack, with the largest share of openings in California, New York, and Washington, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. In-house roles at consumer brands and tech companies tend to stay open longest, making them worth checking regularly.
How many brand designer jobs are remote?
About 64% of brand designer openings are fully remote or hybrid as of September 2026, making it one of the more flexible creative roles to find remotely. Brand identity work and digital brand system maintenance tend to be the most common sub-areas offered as fully remote, while packaging and print-heavy roles are more likely to require in-office time.
How do you become a brand designer?
Most brand designers start with a formal education in graphic design or visual communication, then build a portfolio through freelance projects, internships, or personal work that demonstrates full identity systems. Learning industry-standard tools like Adobe Creative Suite and Figma is essential. Entry-level roles at agencies are a common first step, since agency work exposes you to a wide range of brand problems across industries quickly.
How do you get hired as a brand designer with little experience?
Focus on building a portfolio that shows process, not just final results. Create self-initiated brand projects for fictional or real small businesses, documenting your brief, research, and decisions alongside the finished work. Junior roles at small agencies or in-house teams at startups are the most accessible entry points because they value potential and clear thinking over years of experience.
What does the brand designer interview process look like?
Brand designer interviews typically start with a recruiter or HR screen, followed by a portfolio review with the design team or creative director. Many companies include a design exercise or brief take-home project to assess how you approach a real problem. Final rounds usually involve a presentation of your portfolio or take-home work to a broader team, with questions about your creative process, collaboration style, and how you handle feedback.
Where can I find and apply to brand designer jobs?
You can find and apply to brand designer jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the United States. The listings cover roles at agencies, in-house teams, startups, and enterprise companies, at a range of seniority levels.
