Import and source control

Bring shoots in cleanly before the work starts.

Photonfolio import workflows help photographers bring shoots into one workspace with batch uploads, folder import, RAW/JPEG pairing, and metadata matching.

Short answer

Photonfolio helps photographers import full shoots while preserving folder context, RAW/JPEG pairs, metadata, and the relationships needed for review, edit, and delivery.

Why it matters

Built around the moment the studio needs this feature.

Photographers and studios that want cleaner intake before culling, editing, search, and gallery delivery. Use it when a new shoot arrives and the studio needs a trustworthy foundation before edits or sharing begin.

Batch upload and folder import preserve how the shoot arrived.

RAW/JPEG pairing keeps source files and delivery candidates connected.

Lightroom and Capture One metadata matching helps existing work move forward.
