What are Project Albums?
Project Albums are the core of TimeFotos for service field pros: contractors, roofers, plumbers, painters, HVAC technicians, and anyone who works job-by-job. Each project is tied to a job address, so all your photos, documents, estimates, work orders, and invoices for that job stay in one place.
Why use Project Albums?
- One place per job — Every job starts with a street address. Photos, documents, notes, estimates, work orders, and invoices are all linked to that project.
- Timestamped jobsite photos — Capture photos with date, time, GPS, and weather. Ideal for inspections, insurance, QA, and disputes.
- Client share links — Send your client a read-only link to their job. They see photos, progress, and documents without logging in or downloading an app.
- Portfolio and leads — Turn completed work into a public project album. Before-and-after photos and project updates build trust and generate leads.
What can you do inside a project?
From the Project Albums list (in the CRM or business area), you open a project to access:
- Photos — Upload and organize jobsite photos. Mark which are public (for client or portfolio) and which are private. Add annotations (draw, highlight, label) directly on photos.
- Documents — Attach plans, permits, specs, proposals, and other files to the job.
- Notes — Keep notes and decisions tied to the job address.
- Estimates — Create branded estimates, send by email, get approvals and e-sign.
- Work orders — Convert approved estimates into work orders with one tap.
- Invoices — Generate invoices, send payment reminders, track payments, export PDFs.
- Workboard — Tasks and to-dos for this job in one view.
- Team chat — Messages and updates stay tied to the job — no lost group texts.
