About Sourcefin
Sourcefin is one of South Africa’s fastest-growing alternative funders – on a mission to enable the forgotten SMME.
We unlock working capital for small and growing businesses through intelligent, human-centred technology and funding solutions. But beyond funding, we’re passionate about telling the stories of the entrepreneurs building the real economy.
As our brand grows, we want to capture more of these stories in the real world – from deal deliveries to founder moments, client site visits and behind-the-scenes glimpses of businesses in action.
To support this, we’re building a nationwide network of freelance photographers and videographers we can call on when these moments happen.
If you love capturing authentic business stories and can move quickly when opportunities arise – we’d love to hear from you.
What This Role Is
This is not a full-time role.
We’re building a trusted network of freelance photographers and videographers across South Africa who we can contact when:
a significant deal closes
we want to capture a client story
a founder moment needs documenting
a site visit is taking place
or a meaningful business milestone occurs
When these opportunities arise, we’ll reach out to someone in the relevant region to capture photos and video on-site.
Assignments are typically short, focused shoots designed to capture authentic moments and high-quality visual assets for our marketing and storytelling.
What You’ll Do
Travel to client sites or business locations when requested
Capture professional photos and video footage of entrepreneurs, teams and business environments
Document deal deliveries, founder stories and business moments
Film short interview clips or natural interactions where appropriate
Capture B-roll of business activity, facilities, products and teams
Deliver clean, organised raw footage and images to our shared folder shortly after the shoot
Ensure lighting, framing and sound quality meet professional standards
Represent Sourcefin professionally when interacting with clients and entrepreneurs
What We’re Looking For
A skilled photographer and/or videographer with a strong portfolio
Comfortable capturing both still photography and video content
Experience shooting corporate, documentary-style or brand storytelling content
Able to work independently on location
Own professional camera, lenses and audio equipment
Comfortable working in a variety of environments (factories, offices, warehouses, etc.)
Able to move quickly when shoots are scheduled on short notice
Reliable, professional and easy to work with
Able to deliver footage and images quickly after a shoot
Ideal But Not Essential
Experience shooting entrepreneur stories or small business environments
Basic colour grading or light editing skills
Experience capturing interview-style content
Drone capability (where legal and appropriate)
What You’ll Need to Apply
Please share:
Your portfolio (website, Instagram, or reel)
Your location / province
Your equipment setup
Your rate card (per shoot / hourly / half-day / day rate)
