Lumara for photographers

Organising photography job files and gallery delivery

Use the job delivery area to hold relevant files, create or connect the gallery and open the final client experience. Confirm access and the delivered status only after checking the public route.

What this workflow needs

The delivery record should show what the studio prepared, what the client can access and where the gallery belongs. Internal working files, public portfolio work and the client’s complete delivery may require different visibility and retention decisions.

A useful workflow should reduce uncertainty for the photographer and the client. Keep the record specific, make the next action obvious and avoid collecting information that nobody will use. The aim is a calmer handover, not a larger collection of fields.

Set it up step by step

  1. Prepare the deliverablesIdentify the final files and the gallery that belong to this job.
  2. Connect the galleryCreate or attach it from the correct job and client context.
  3. Test the client routeOpen the gallery without the photographer session and check access and downloads.
  4. Record completionUpdate delivery status and set the appropriate client follow-up.

How this maps to Lumara

Lumara jobs include a Delivery workspace for files and connected galleries, with a route to open the gallery directly. Gallery access, visibility, favourites and downloads remain controlled in the gallery itself.

Use the dashboard as the working record, then confirm the client-facing result separately. A saved setting or status is useful evidence of progress, but it does not replace checking the public gallery, request link or portfolio preview as the client will receive it.

  • Keep internal and client files distinct.
  • Connect delivery to the correct job.
  • Test the signed-out gallery.
  • Follow up after confirmed access.

Linking a client gallery to the right client and job

A connected gallery carries useful context beyond the delivery link and reduces duplicated client records.

Planning a clear client gallery download experience

Clients need to know what they can download, where to keep it and who to contact if access does not work.
