YOUR EYE. OUR MOUNTAIN. STORIES WORTH SHARING.
Do you love creating content for social? Is your Instagram page fire? Do you instinctively spot the shot, know when a moment would make a great reel, and catch it before it's gone?
We're hiring a full-time Social Content Creator to capture life at BOLT FARM: the views, the treehouses, the guests, and the real behind-the-scenes of building a brand with founders Seth and Tori Bolt.
Your primary tools are an iPhone, a great eye, and the ability to make people feel comfortable. You don’t need a cinema camera or an elaborate setup. You need to recognize a moment, frame it beautifully, and capture it before it’s gone.
THE CORE MISSION
Create a consistent stream of compelling, social-first video and photos that bring BOLT FARM and its founders’ stories to life. You’ll be our eyes on the ground, capturing both the beauty of the property and the human moments that make it special. Think less staged production, more being in the right place, noticing what matters, and making it look great.
ABOUT BOLT FARM
BOLT FARM is building America’s most iconic romantic luxury retreat brand, creating nature-immersed experiences that help people reconnect with each other and what matters most.
Our mountaintop retreat in Whitwell, Tennessee, brings together extraordinary accommodations, sweeping views, thoughtful details, and meaningful guest experiences. The brand has earned national recognition:
- Featured in Forbes and Travel + Leisure, and seen on Netflix.
- Recognized with Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice.
- Followed by 1.2M+ people on social media.
For a creator, that means extraordinary surroundings, real stories, and an established audience ready to see your work. You’ll capture the experiences that make guests want to visit, the moments they remember afterward, and the behind-the-scenes journey of building BOLT FARM alongside its founders.
Your job is to help people feel it before they ever arrive.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
Capture the property and guest experience
- Shoot iPhone video and photos of our accommodations, views, amenities, seasonal details, and experiences.
- Capture happy hour, guest activities & mini-shoots, events, sunrises, sunsets, and the everyday moments that make BOLT FARM worth visiting.
- Document genuine guest reactions, laughter, connection, and celebrations, with appropriate permission.
- Help guests feel comfortable and confident during quick, approachable content sessions.
- Follow a weekly capture plan while staying alert to spontaneous opportunities.
Follow the founders and capture the story
- Accompany Seth and Tori around the property and during scheduled activities, projects, events, and occasional travel.
- Help capture natural, unscripted talking-to-camera content without turning every moment into a production.

Bring a social creator’s eye

- Bring ideas for fresh angles, relatable stories, and relevant trends that fit the brand.
Keep content moving
