Record What You Photograph, While You Photograph

Take notes and record information about your photographs directly from your phone after taking each shot.
The companion app for the plugin lets you create records quickly and easily, including
text, voice notes, keywords, and GPS coordinates.

Then, in Lightroom Classic, the plugin identifies which record corresponds to each photograph
and transfers that information to its metadata.

You will no longer need to carry a notebook, write down information during a photography session, and later
manually transfer each note to your photographs.
Record the information as you go and let the plugin do the work of matching it to your photos and transferring it to Lightroom Classic.

Works with any camera

As the records are created on your phone,
they do not depend on your camera model or its features.

  • Voice notes: record information by speaking, even if your camera does not have a voice note feature.
  • GPS Coordinates: record the location of each shot even if your camera does not have GPS
    or cannot accurately determine the location at the time the photograph is taken.
  • Keywords: add keywords in a format compatible with Lightroom Classic's keyword system.
    The app will show you the most recently used keywords for quick selection, and you can also enter
    the name of previously used keywords or add new ones manually.
  • Offline: the app does not require an Internet connection to work.
    You can use it normally in places where there is no cellular signal and sync the records later.
    It offers two voice-to-text transcription options: Google's engine, which is highly accurate but requires an Internet connection,
    or a built-in engine, which is less accurate but does not require a data connection.

Ideal for photography trips and photojournalism assignments

The combination of App + Plugin for Lightroom Classic is especially useful when taking
many photographs and wanting to preserve information about each one for later cataloging.

Nature Photography: while photographing hundreds of birds, you can record the species you
encounter and save their names as keywords.

Events and Portraits: when photographing many people, you can record their names as you
photograph them, without having to remember them or write them down in a notebook.

Travel and Landscapes: when photographing different locations, you can record the name of each place
and its location using GPS coordinates.

When you return, the plugin takes care of
identifying the photographs corresponding to each record and applying the information to their metadata in Lightroom Classic,
saving you time and effort while leaving your photographs better documented and organized.

The plugin will show you each photograph for which it found a record, allowing you to decide how to apply it.
You can choose whether to copy the keywords, GPS coordinates, and
notes to the photograph's title or caption.
You can apply the information directly or edit it manually before adding it.
