Self-Registration
Self-Registration within Workflow helps studios gather subject data ahead of shoots and gather important contact information like email addresses and phone numbers without slowing down picture day. This is especially helpful for jobs where subject data is not available ahead of time or when working with walk-up registrations.
Studios can also attach custom forms to collect additional information that helps organize and identify subjects on picture day.
Why Studios Use This Feature
Make registration faster and easier for subjects for picture days where data is not provided by the organization
Collect more emails and phone numbers for communication and ordering
Support walk-up or unknown-subject workflows
Capture additional custom information through forms
This feature helps studios make more by reducing friction during registration while increasing opportunities for communication and future sales.
Enable Self-Registration
To enable Self-Registration:
Open the job in Captura Workflow

What Happens Next
After enabling Self-Registration, you can:
View the registration link
Copy and share the link with subjects
Each job receives a unique registration link for subject registration. Subjects use the registration link to register themselves for the job, if a custom form is attached in the self registration setting the subject will be asked to fill in those fields at the time of registering.
If a user wants to register another subject immediately after completing registration, they can click the register another subject button after completing their first form.
Registration Form Fields
Default Fields
The registration page includes the following default fields:
Field | Required |
|---|---|
First Name | Yes |
Last Name | Yes |
Email Address | Yes |
Phone Number | No |
Custom Forms (Optional)
Studios can attach a custom form n the self registration settings to collect additional information. This custom form functions separately then the custom form attached in the general job settings.
When a self registration custom form is attached:
Custom fields appear after the default fields
Each field follows its configured required or optional setting
This is useful for collecting information like:
Team names
Grade levels
Teacher names
Jersey numbers
Any studio-specific identifiers
Field Mapping & Value Precedence
If a custom form field maps to the same subject field as a default field:
Both fields may appear on the registration form
If both fields are completed, the custom form value takes precedence
Subject Registration Flow
Subject opens the registration link
Subject completes the required fields
Subject clicks Register
Result
A subject record is immediately created in the job.

Note: If the job is currently open in Workflow, you may need to leave the job and reopen it to see newly registered subjects.
