Photographer

Company Description: Cochin Supply Co. is a premium agricultural trade and export brand bridging exceptional regional commodities with international retail markets. We source, import, and distribute culinary goods, launching our flagship line with world-renowned, authentic Tellicherry Black Pepper tailored directly for premium North American consumers.

Role Description: We are seeking a talented, detail-oriented Product Photographer based locally in Kerala to lead the visual asset creation for our upcoming brand launch. The ideal candidate will combine technical precision with a sharp eye for minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired design aesthetics.

You will be bringing our artisan, textured paper-wrapped spice containers to life. Your scope of work will encompass two distinct visual styles: creating clean, high-definition e-commerce shots on a pure white background for our storefront, alongside rich, organic lifestyle imagery that elegantly highlights the authentic heritage, premium scale, and dark, wrinkled texture of genuine Kerala Tellicherry peppercorns

Qualifications

• Studio Equipment: Access to a professional studio space in Kerala with advanced studio lighting setups (diffusers, softboxes) to handle matte, textured paper wraps without harsh glares.
• Macro Photography Capability: Ownership of or access to a high-quality macro lens (e.g., 90mm or 100mm) capable of capturing the fine, wrinkled details of Tellicherry peppercorns.
• Software Mastery: Advanced proficiency in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom for background removal (pure white cuts) and precise colour correction.
• Styling & Art Direction: Ability to source minimalist props and arrange organic food/lifestyle compositions based on visual brand guidelines.
• Logistics: Ability to safely receive or collect product samples locally within Kerala.
