Format announces Workflow, a service to help photographers manage their business

Format, a leading website-building platform for photographers, has announced a new feature, Workflow. Designed to help photographers streamline their business operations, Workflow offers features such as password-protected client galleries, branded file transfers and more.

New branded, password-protected Client Galleries make it easy to showcase your images and collaborate with clients. Clients can then select their favorite images directly in the gallery or share them with others. With Workflow, photographers can also share a branded zip file of images directly with clients. You can securely transfer up to 10GB of photos using Workflow’s Branded File Delivery option.

Workflow’s primary features are client galleries, file transfers and organization tools. Click to enlarge.

For photographers trying to keep track of their work for many clients at once, Workflow’s Client Overviews are designed to organize important details in a single location. Here you can find your contacts, project notes, file transfers and Client Galleries. Speaking of contacts, you also label, tag and sort your clients by different parameters.

Professional photographer Josh Fechter writes, ‘Workflow has given me time to provide a better level of service to my clients.’ Ultimately, this is what Format hopes to achieve with Workflow. The goal of Workflow is to provide the tools to help working photographers stay organized and manage their business more efficiently.

To support creative professionals in an industry that the COVID-19 pandemic has acutely impacted, Format is offering one year of its Workflow Pro membership for free to all those who register before March 31. Outside of this limited-time offer, Workflow Pro will be $15 per month. The Pro level membership allows for 50 client galleries, 5GB of transfers and a free domain name for a year.

There is also a free level, which will be free beyond this month. This Workflow option provides 10 client galleries and 2GB of transfers. All levels include Lightroom and Capture One integration and 24/7 support. However, Pro Plus and Unlimited options are also available for $25/month and $40/month, respectively, when billed annually. If you pay month-by-month, these options are instead $35 and $56 per month. Pro Plus comes with 100 client galleries, 10GB of transfers, a professional email address from Google, and priority support for its higher fee. The Unlimited tier increases the number of client galleries up to 250.
