SimplePhoto Introduces Custom Digital Delivery

By Nicole Cook

The life of a professional photographer has drastically changed in the last couple of months and everyone has been affected by the spread of the coronavirus. We’ve seen schools closed, sports canceled, students learning from home, graduations and events being held virtually, and photographers and photo labs making the shift to working remotely or even halting operations altogether.

With people practicing social distancing, digital products and online shopping have become more in demand, from streaming movies in unison, video chats with friends and loved ones, or sharing images to create a united experience even when we’re far apart. Finding creative ways to stay in touch and make connections while remaining apart has become a focus and priority. 

So what can you do to help your customers connect and provide a meaningful product that can be delivered virtually? SimplePhoto now offers an efficient and simple solution for instantly delivering custom digital products to your customers. Revamp past photos using a stylized templated product or apply professional retouching. After finalizing work in Photoshop or your tool of choice, use SimplePhoto’s Custom Digital Delivery to upload and send the digital download via text and email. Click Here to learn more.

Here are some more great ideas for digital products that can be instantly delivered:

  • Offer graduates a digital montage that celebrates their important milestone. 

  • Dress up past photos with new backgrounds, foregrounds, and personalization.

  • Add a student’s school/team mascot and name to produce sport-themed images.

Working Remotely: Advice from a Remote-first Company
