Here are a few thoughts on tablet computers in your photography business workflow.
I'm John Harrington.
iPads and tablets are great because they allow the client
to see the images you're shooting when you're shooting, whether you're transferring
images wirelessly from your camera straight over to the tablet
or whether you're shooting tethered from the camera
in the tablet,
especially when you don't have
a full-blown digital workstation setup for the client to see.
Sometimes when you're working on the fly or working in a tight
environment, you don't actually have the ability to set up a complete digital
workstation
so a tablet is great. In addition, especially if you're shooting wirelessly
as you're shooting, as you're working, it gives the client the opportunity to
review the images you're shooting, make certain that you're delivering exactly
what they need, what they want, and give you requests or say, "Hey, I this is a great,
but I need you to shoot this as well." Having a tablet, having an iPad for
client review
is really a great tool
to make certain that the clients happy with everything you're delivering.
