This month, we’re launching our first ever Sawyer Creative Series, and the topic is a popular one: photography! Discover our creative team’s best tips and tricks to refresh your photos for the years to come. 

Think about your favorite photo — is it from a memorable trip? Or a snapshot of the people that you love? Maybe, your favorite photo is a dreamy landscape or something that makes you belly laugh. Photography connects us to experiences and feelings. As you curate images for your business, it is important to showcase what makes your business unique and gives customers a glimpse into their child’s experience. 

In this blog post, you’ll learn how you can take advantage of photography tools in Sawyer. In the upcoming weeks, we’ll share articles on creating stronger photography, our favorite editing advice, building your photo library, and even guides to experimenting with video. 

To accompany our Creative Series, we’ve made some big improvements to the way business owners upload photos to Sawyer. It’s even easier to add your photos to activities and your Sawyer Marketplace business page, whether you’re on-the-go or in the office. 

Easily upload photos from any device

When you add photos to your activities and business profile, you can do so from your phone, tablet, or computer. If you’re adding photos from a desktop, you can easily drag and drop them into the editor as well. 

Connect photos from Google Drive, Facebook, and Instagram

Do you have carefully curated photos on social media that would look perfect on your Sawyer account? Now, you can add photos from Facebook and Instagram in just a few clicks. Does your business store images in Google Drive for easy access? If so, you can use your drive to add photos to your activities and business profile. Adding photography from your social channels and fire storage system only takes a few clicks and is easy for every member of your team.

Upload and edit all in one place 

If you want to make slight adjustments to the imagery you select, you can do so in the photo uploader! Simply crop photos — and use our preset image size to keep images perfect for your listings and business profile. You can also rotate images within the uploader. 

Stay tuned for more photo updates — like filters and image adjustment tools coming soon in the future. To discover what else is new in Sawyer, check out our product updates page.
