Photography Instructor for Youth Class - Summer Camp 2024

Come spend the Summer of a Lifetime in The Berkshires!

Camp Danbee is currently hiring Photography instructors to spend their summer instructing our campers in everything from the basics of photography, composition, lighting, how to use a DLSR, editing and more! We want our girls to get creative, learn new skills and create some wonderful projects to showcase at camp and bring home at the end of the summer. They can also be a part of shooting photos for our Danbee newspaper. You will specialize in this activity, so you must have extensive knowledge and be able to develop an engaging curriculum for your program area. We're looking for passionate, skilled individuals to be great role models for our campers!

The Role:

You will serve a dual role as a counselor at Camp Danbee. Those roles include being a cabin counselor and program instructor in Photography. You will also assist by shooting events and activities during the summer for our Media team who post daily photos for our families at home to see. As a cabin counselor, you and two other co-counselors will live in a cabin with 10-12 campers, whom you will supervise for the summer. As a program instructor, you will help prepare and lead instructional lessons for all levels in your dedicated program area.

Working at camp is an opportunity to develop skills that can be used in a career outside of camp. You will enhance your leadership, collaboration, problem-solving, and communication skills. Camp Danbee has a large leadership team to learn from, from multiple college Head Coaches to experienced professionals across the education, outdoor recreation, and sports industries. 

We will work with your college/university to earn paid internship credits.

The Perks:

• Salary starts at $2200 for a Freshman in college and increases from there
• Travel allowance in addition to salary
• Room, board, and staff t-shirts
• Internship credit*
• Experience The Berkshires, meet people from all over the US and the world, and have the summer of a lifetime!

*Some educational institutions require prior approval before the start of an internship. It is the responsibility of the student to check with their institution to be sure they meet any requirements before they accept a position.
