What to automate in your photography business
Lauren McConihay • May 6, 2022

Most photographers start their businesses because they want to create beautiful images not because they want to sit behind a desk. Would you agree? Iris Works has many features that help automate your business so you can focus on creating those amazing images for your clients. Everything is centered around the client. Instead of having a job/project in which you attach clients to, you have a client that you book sessions with. All pertinent information about that client is stored in their profile (contracts, questionnaires, past sessions, notes, etc.) Automate your photography business and set yourself up for success with Iris Works!

Emails/Workflows

Do you find that you send the same email over and over again to your clients? First, Iris allows you to create email templates to send directly to your clients automatically. Our email templates allow you to add in images that give your communication a beautiful, branded look. All of your email templates can be automated with the ability to attach questionnaires, contracts, invoice templates and pdfs. 


Next, use the beautifully crafted email templates in your workflows. A workflow is a series of tasks, steps and emails that you create and follow to keep yourself and business organized and efficient. Iris has template workflows to get you started. As an Iris subscriber, you have exclusive access to The Marketplace. Find curated workflows with expert questionnaires and email templates from top photographers. Shop your favorite and we’ll automatically load it into your Iris account.
