QR Code for Photographers
Hand clients their gallery, or your portfolio, with a single scan.
A photographer's work belongs on screen, not squeezed onto a business card, and clients lose the download link you emailed weeks ago. A QR code sends people straight to your portfolio or a client's private gallery, from a card, a print sleeve, or a thank-you note. Because the code is dynamic, you can point one printed card at your latest portfolio, or repoint a delivery card to each new client's gallery, without reordering prints, and scan data shows when clients actually open their photos.
Why use a dynamic QR code for this
Deliver galleries instantly
Clients scan a print sleeve or card and land on their gallery, no lost email link to hunt for.
Keep your portfolio current
Repoint a printed card to your newest work so business cards never show old images.
Know when they view
Scan timing tells you when a client opened their gallery, a cue for the follow-up.

Before you print it
If your photographers code may ever need to point somewhere else, create it as a dynamic QR code you can edit after printing. The printed pattern never changes; only the destination behind it does. It also means you can track every scan by day, device, and location and see which placement actually worked.
Photographers FAQ
Can I use one card for different clients?
Yes. Repoint the dynamic code to each new client's gallery, or use a fresh code per client to track them separately.
Can I update my portfolio link later?
Yes. Edit the destination anytime and every printed card instantly points to your current portfolio.
Can I put a code on the back of prints and album packaging?
Yes, and a dynamic one is worth it because a print outlives any single gallery link. Print from the SVG so the code stays clean on textured or matte stock, keep it around 2 x 2 cm, and leave a white margin rather than bleeding it into a dark border. Then repoint it when the gallery moves or your portfolio changes.
Do clients need an account or password to open their gallery?
That is set by whatever gallery service you use, not by the code. The code simply opens the link you give it, so if your gallery is password protected the client still enters the password. We do not host galleries ourselves, so the delivery experience stays entirely yours.
What file formats can I download?
PNG for screens and SVG for print, on every plan including the free one. SVG stays sharp at any size, so it's the one to hand a printer.
