Digital Downloads of Class Photos & Team Photos
High-Volume PhotographyVolume StudiosStudio OperationsPricing StrategySports PhotographyPortrait Photography
What is everyone's company policies on digital downloads of class & team photos? We strictly do not allow it for privacy purposes, but I would like to know what other studios do. For any studios that do allow it, what is your price point compared to individual downloads, and what do you do about the privacy of the students?

Captura's own Capture Software?
This is a wild question but I have to ask. Is there anything in the making for Captura to come out with their own PHOTOMATCH type of capture system? (Those that have used Candid Colors know) Currently I shoot with Candids' PHOTOMATCH because it is flawless. The app itself takes the photos and it directly uploads to my Account and Job. Imagine if EVOTO had an integration with Captura. My login for EVOTO would be my Captura Acct # and then with EVOTO i see my Roster and can take photos there. I am asking because If I shoot the Captura's Capture, I used CaptureOne to tether, however the timing is spotty. Sometime the photo shows and sometimes it doesn't. Again, Currently I shoot with Photomatch and then tranfer over to Capture, but that is very time consuming.

Tethering - Microsoft Surface Pro vs iPad Pro
Hello, I am a Captura newbie, gearing up to tether for my sports and schools this fall. I would like to purchase a device to designate purely to tethering on shoots. I'd love to hear your experiences on what you use and if you like it or not. I am not sure if I am able to use an iPad with Captura's software to tether? I shoot with a Sony and have used Evoto to tether to my laptop in the past. Thanks! Jessica

🎤🔥 Hot Takes from MVP: What's Your Photography Hill to Die On?
We asked attendees at MVP one simple question: What's your biggest photography hot take? Or, what's a hill you're willing to die on? The answers? 😂 Passionate, controversial, hilarious... and honestly, a few of them might start a debate. From opinions on gear and editing to client expectations and business practices, our community didn't hold back. 🎥 Watch the video and let us know: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/narJu7nUjhs What's YOUR photography hot take? What's an unpopular opinion you stand by, no matter what? Drop it in the comments below. 👇 Bonus points if you're brave enough to defend it. And if one of the hot takes from the video made you laugh (or completely disagree), tell us which one!

Tying ID card printing to Groups
Back-to-SchoolOperational Efficiency
Is there any way to tie the ID card printed for a subject to the group they're in, without having to select the specific ID? This is for photographing and printing on site. Some of our schools are implementing more and more ID options for students (depending on their student status), so for our new photographers, we're trying to think of ways to make it easier for them and avoid any mistakes.

Wording for a sign
Studio OperationsClient ExperienceCustomer SupportBest PracticesTips and TricksPain Points
Get your creative juices flowing this holiday weekend! I need some help for wording on a sign in our studio. We've had an uptick in issues with parents taking pictures of their child - and of the Workflow screen during Capture - when they accompany their seniors to the senior photo session. Part of it is probably our fault, since we've really encouraged parents to attend as part of capturing the memories of the senior year. Sessions are scheduled, and roughly a quarter to a third have a parent along. We have one that says: "Please: No cell phones during Senior Yearbook Session." Obviously that isn't working. In my mind I'd like for the sign to say: "Respect that this is an art form, stop stealing photos, and put your #$*% cell phone away!" So probably somewhere in between - thoughts?!

Alternative's to Flow's "Mr. Gray"
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!

What tethering software do you use?
We shoot tethered with Nikon camera. In years past we used the software "Control My Nikon" to send images from camera to the Hotfolder. We switched from that a year or so ago due to white balance/coloring issues we couldn't solve. The software we use now is "NX Tether" by Nikon. This works great except when it unexpectedly just shuts down or disconnects from the camera. I haven't been able to figure out why this happens. I cannot detect a pattern to when this happens. Sometimes it works great for a whole shoot....and sometimes it will shut down multiple times during a shoot. When it shuts down and is then restarted it adds corrupted images to Workflow which have to be removed or Workflow will not sync. Has anyone else encountered this with NX Tether? Does anyone else use Nikon? If so, what software do you use?

MacBook Neo , anyone using it to tether to?
I just got one and it worked great for us, just wondering if anyone else has used one and your experiences before I buy four more. What is your preferred shooting method?

Sports Background Extractions
Sports Photography
We are thinking of knocking out the sports individual photos next year and offering different background options. What have other studios done for this? Any insight would be helpful. I'm currently trying to evaluate these things: Full body extractions looking weird Making new memory mates with knocked out photo and normal team photo Reteaching photographers how to shoot sports photos
