Welcome to the Captura Community

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vA_3gSg-duk&t=28s In this episode of Inside the Studio , we sit down with Nikki Damato and Raymond Chan to talk about their journey from volume photography to building successful careers behind the camera. It's a candid conversation about trade shows, industry friendships, and the one thing that keeps them coming back: creating images that become part of a family's story for years to come.

Is it somehow possible to have specific backgrounds for each job, but with only one price list? For example, I photograph multiple hockey leagues, in a variety of different towns/arenas. For the off ice shoots, I extract the player and give the parents the option to choose their backgrounds. Last year I used 1 price list for hockey, and the parents had the option to choose from 10 different arenas. I would prefer if they only had 2 of their actual arena, and two fake generic backgrounds. I could render out the jpgs but it seems like more work and isn't as flexible. Or I could create a separate price list for each team and direct it to a specific background set. What is the best solution for this?

The new designer build allows you to create products that pull in images with custom attributes (your tags)! This means that when parents get to the shop, and chose a product, you can limit the subset of images allowed to fulfill those products. This is particularly useful if you are uploading rendered images or a mixture of jpegs/png files, or if you have a product like a 15x30 pano print and you want to limit that product to only grab the pano image. Here is a VERY UNPOLISHED screen recording video (sorry to the marketing dept) that I made showing how you can limit what images customers can use to fulfill a specific product or package.

For anyone out there who has recently switched to Captura from Flow, what are you using as an alternative to the "Mr. Gray" feature. How are you ensuring proper consistent exposures across multiple stations? Are there any stand alone programs available, apps or are we back to good olé' light meters? Thanks!

We've been hearing more and more reports of Mac users, upon updating their OS, receiving a message that warns, "This version of Workflow will not open in a future release of macOS"? Don't worry! Our response is below: To give you the short answer: Workflow will continue to function normally for the foreseeable future , and there is no immediate action required on your part. Here is some context on what is happening behind the scenes: The Situation: Apple has announced that they will eventually end Intel application support on their Apple Silicon chip systems (M1, M2, M3, etc.). The Role of Rosetta: Currently, newer Mac systems rely on a built-in translation program called Rosetta , which allows Intel-based applications like Workflow to run seamlessly on Apple Silicon. The Timeline: Apple plans to deprecate Rosetta in a future version of macOS, meaning Workflow as currently constructed would no longer open once that support officially ends. However, Apple is providing developers with significant advance notice—this change is not expected to take effect until macOS 28 (in the year 2028) . Our development team is already fully aware of this timeline and is actively tracking it. We will ensure that a native Apple Silicon version or a compatible solution is in place well before Apple retires Rosetta so that your operations face zero disruption. For more details on how Apple currently manages Intel-based applications, you can review the Apple Support Guide on Rosetta . Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Is there a good way to get a printable version of a price list? Something that we could use when meeting with new schools? I used to be able to go to an active job and take a screenshot of the Shop, which was a great way of showing the school what the user experience would look like, as well as providing the pricing and items available. However, it looks like whenever I hit the command key while on the website now it blurs the screen and puts up a popup, which is a great new feature for protecting our photos, but is leaving me in a lurch for an upcoming meeting. Any thoughts or suggestions for a price list needed ASAP?

MVP means something a little different depending on who you ask. That's why Annie grabbed a microphone and went looking for answers around the Raleigh office. Watch as our team shares what they're most excited about for MVP 2026, the challenges studios need to solve, and why this day has become a favorite stop on the SPOA calendar. Already going to SPOA?

The Sports Fields available seems to be seriously lacking in options. Right now all that's there is Jersey Number. Sports Fields that would be helpful in addition to Jersey Number: Team Name Team Level (like Varsity, Junior Varsity) Position

For those who utilize PlicBooks, how are you having schools proof their yearbook pages? How do you track those changes, especially with multiple people at schools reviewing information and multiple people in the studio updating the changes?
