PipeflowYour pictures, finally shown regularly.
Pipeflow reads your photo studio's website, uses your own photos and plans posts for Instagram and LinkedIn every week with matching captions.
Last updated:
For portraits, plain-coloured clothes without big patterns or logos work best. Feel free to bring two outfits, and we will decide together on the day.
Example of a text tileWhy it usually gets left undone.
Thousands of pictures, no captions
The photos are there, but after shoots and editing there is no energy left for writing and planning.
Keeping track of consent
Not every client wants to appear online. Keeping track of it all is tiring.
Only a portfolio, no story
Galleries alone show your skill, but not what it is like to work with you.
Where the topics come from.
From your shoots
Application photos, families, weddings, products and portraits for businesses.
From the studio
Lighting set-ups, backgrounds, camera gear, editing and preparation.
From client questions
What to wear, how long it takes, how the picture selection works, who may use the pictures and how.
An example week.
How Pipeflow could plan a week for you.
Monday: One picture and its story
A favourite image from an approved shoot with three sentences about the situation: light, moment, why exactly this picture. It shows not just results but also how you see.
Wednesday: A location in the region
A photo of a place near you that you like for couple or family shoots, such as the edge of a forest or a courtyard. Clients get ideas, and you become linked with the area you work in.
Friday: The album after the wedding
A photo of a printed album or prints on a table. It is a reminder that pictures shouldn't only live on a phone, and shows an offer many people don't think of.
Three ideas for photographers.
- 01
Application photo
An application photo with consent and a short explanation.
Example A good application photo looks friendly and natural. We take our time until you feel comfortable in front of the camera. #headshot #portrait
- 02
Behind the scenes
Photo of you at work, taken by someone else.
Example This is what it looks like when I'm out at a wedding: lots of movement, lots of waiting for the right moment. 📸

Product photos for businesses
A product photo with a note about the offer for companies.
Example We shoot product photos for your website or online shop in the studio, with a calm background and clean light. Just ask us for an appointment.
Tips for photographers.
Check the crop before approving
Instagram crops images differently in the profile grid than in the post. Before approving, check that heads or important details don't disappear at the edge, especially in landscape format.
Permission for each purpose
Permission for your website isn't automatically permission for Instagram. Record in the contract or in writing where you may show pictures, and always ask parents when children are involved.
Say what you photograph
A beautiful feed doesn't yet say whether you shoot weddings, businesses or newborns. Mention the occasion casually in every post, so prospective clients know whether they have come to the right place.
Subtle watermarks or none at all
Large watermarks spoil the picture and still hardly stop anyone from copying. A small name in the corner, or none at all, looks more professional.
How Pipeflow helps.
From your website
Pipeflow reads what you offer and plans posts from it. No website? A few sentences about your business are enough.
With images
Photos from your website, your own photos, AI images or text tiles in your colours.
You approve
Nothing goes out until you approve it. You can edit, ask for a rewrite or pause at any time.
FAQ.
Can Pipeflow use my photos from the website?
Yes. Pipeflow uses photos from your website or your own uploads. For photos showing people, Pipeflow asks about consent.
Will my visual style be kept?
You choose the pictures and can place your own photo in any post. The caption is planned around it, and the picture stays yours.
Does Pipeflow also make Reels from my videos?
No. Pipeflow plans posts with an image and text, not videos, Reels or Stories.
How many pictures from a shoot should I show?
Better one strong picture than ten similar ones. If a shoot has several sides to it, spread them over different posts across a few weeks. That keeps the feed varied and gives each picture its moment.
Isn't it strange for a photographer to post AI images?
For your actual work you should always use your own photos, anything else would be dishonest. With Pipeflow you can put your own photo into any post, and through your ratings Pipeflow learns what you want to avoid. For notices such as available dates, text tiles are enough.
How do I reach business clients through social media?
Show work for businesses where decision makers spend their time, which means LinkedIn. A team photo, a portrait for a website or product shots with the business named, if they agree, say more than any list of services.
