Bend talent

We work with real people (and sometimes their dogs!) to capture them in photos/videos doing what they love to do together, with a focus on creating authentic, inclusive, and diverse visuals. This is a paid opportunity, too! Our goal is to cultivate belonging through storytelling and representation. We want everyone to see themselves reflected in our visual assets – including but not limited to people who identify as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, Person of Color) and individuals and families of all sexualities, genders, ages, physical abilities, sizes, religions, and countries of origin.
