A smooth workflow is what lets you take on more work. Here is the path from shoot to final delivery./blog/photographer-workflow-shoot-to-delivery/How long should a photographer keep a client proofing gallery open?
Galleries that never close create stalled decisions and storage costs, while galleries that close too fast create angry emails. Here is how to set a window that fits the job./blog/proofing-gallery-open-window/When should a photographer password-protect a proofing gallery instead of using a private link?
Both options keep a gallery off the public web, but they solve different problems. This guide explains which one fits each client and how to avoid the support headaches passwords can create./blog/password-or-private-link/How much should a photographer mark up prints ordered through a proofing gallery?

A print that comes back darker than expected is one of the most common print complaints in proofing, and it is rarely the lab's fault. Here is what causes it and how to stop it before the order ships./blog/print-darker-than-screen/Should a headshot photographer let clients choose their final image right after the session?
