Step 1: Setting Up Capture Collab
To begin organizing your church's photography, the first step is setting up Capture Collab. After creating your account, you will encounter the default view, which may include a campus if you have already added one.
Next, create a new collection. Name this collection after your campus, even if you have only one. For example, "West Campus." This naming convention helps keep photos organized by location and manageable as your church grows.
Step 2: Creating a Photo Shoot
Once the campus is created, you will be prompted to create a photo shoot. This is the uploading process. Click the upload button, select your campus, and name the photo shoot. For instance, "Sunday Morning Photos, April 1st."
Specify the location, which can be the same as your campus. This keeps things searchable. You can also tag people in the photos, like tagging your pastor if it’s a dedicated photo shoot of them. For generic Sunday photos, skip this step.
Step 3: Adding Tags to Your Photos
Tags are crucial for making your photos searchable later. Add tags that describe the occasion, like "Sunday Service," "Worship," or specific details like "Drums" or "Foyer." These tags will be applied to all the photos you are about to upload.
Step 4: Uploading Photos
Select the photos to upload. This process is quick and efficient. You can walk away while the upload completes. Think about how you will search for these photos in the future and add relevant tags accordingly.
Step 5: Batch Editing and Tagging
After uploading, view your assets. Enter batch edit mode to tag specific photos for easier searching later. For example, select photos of drums and tag them with "drums." Repeat this process for other categories like "guitar," "congregation," and "stage."
Step 6: Searching and Filtering Photos
Use the search function to quickly find specific photos. Instead of navigating through campuses and photo shoots, go directly to the latest uploads and filter by tags like "drums," "guitar," or "worship."
Step 7: Sharing Photos with Teams
Grant access to specific groups, like the worship team, by creating a shareable view. Invite team members so they can see all photos tagged with relevant tags, such as "stage" and "worship."
