Iris Works | an all in one business solution for photographers

Mar

26

I can not even begin to tell you how excited I am about the new Iris Works program that was developed BY a photographer  (Meredith Gradle) FOR photographers (eh hem, ME).

Before this program I spent hours. I mean HOURS on the back and forth about information, contracts, invoices, reminders, thank yous, etc. I have been using Iris for a few months now. It. Is. Amazing. When you log on to your Iris account, you will see all of your to dos for the day. You see recent client activity (aka, what you set up for each client to happen, and you didnt touch a thing, Iris did it all for you). You see your calendar. You see the WEATHER. I kid you not. What you also see is how you are doing in terms of your goals. This program is amazing. It will send invoices for you. Note: it is NOT an accounting program, but it will invoice and keep track of payments for those invoices you choose to send. You know what ELSE is amazing?!!  For each client, there is a to-do section. Such as “cull images”, “send link”, “call my client to wish her a happy bday.” I mean  HELLO. Virtual assistant. SO. Amazing.  For the FIRST time in my life, I may actually have my deadlines and tasks under control. Crazy. It even has a location map! You can store all of your locations you love in here. I am not even kidding. Also, if other photographers add their spots, you can see those too! Want to keep your locations private? No problem. You can set it that way too 🙂

In phase 2, there will be even more things added. The ability for clients to view galleries. Purchase products. The list goes on and on.

I could write about this forever, but instead how about I show you some goodies 🙂

GAH. How is Eva old enough to graduate. She will be graduating this Spring of 2026 from Saint Joseph’s Academy (Saint Joe). This hurts my brain. I have known and photographed her since she was little as I’ve known her mom a long time! I love this season I am in with who I’m photographing. […]

I discovered a hidden spot during my son’s soccer practice that would ONLY work for about 15-20 minutes AT sunset, and ONLY if there was sun. I mean…. I GUESS we could do NO sun too…. but the sunset was epic here. Actually, this was late in the season and we had to move spots, […]

This baby needs no introduction. Clearly his hair speaks for itself. 🙂 I LOVE simple newborn sessions. Each one will go totally differently depending on how sleepy they are, when they arrived, etc etc.  When photographing newborns we will do so about day 10 through about day 21 (ish).  We have many come early and […]

I have been photographing Hadley and her family since they were all babies! Seeing all of my clients grow up is such a gift! She chose to do a session in a field as well as a session in the studio. I will share some highlights from both sessions below. Lots of girls like to […]
