Hospitality Video and Photo Intern

Location: Austin, TX | Position Type: Part-time

Note: This internship will not reflect a typical 9AM-5PM, Monday to Friday position. Must be flexible and available to work outside these hours.

Do you light up when you’re behind a camera, hunting for the perfect shot of a sizzling dish, a crafted cocktail, or a vibrant crowd at an event? Do you love capturing the feeling of a place — the energy, the people, the vibe — and turning it into scroll-stopping content? Are you the friend who always says “Wait, hold on, the light is perfect right now”?

If you’re reading this and thinking, Wow… this is literally me, then you might be the next Hospitality Video and Photo Intern at LV Collective.

LV Collective is an energetic, design-driven real estate and hospitality company shaping the future of lifestyle experiences. Our hospitality team is growing fast, and we’re looking for a dependable, creative, boots-on-the-ground intern with a passion for video and photo production, food + beverage, and storytelling.

If you’re obsessed with video and photo, excited by hospitality, and love a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same, this internship is for you.
