You can **keep photos organized by project and phase** by uploading every site photo directly to a record linked to the project, phase and date, adding a short description and using filtered views to find photos when you need them.

In **Jestor**, photos live with daily reports, inspections and tasks, so they always have context.

## Why do construction photos get lost?

Teams take hundreds of photos on their phones and share them in chat groups. After a few weeks, nobody can find the right one.

Photos needed for disputes, warranty claims or client updates are buried in personal galleries.

When a worker leaves the company, their photos leave with them.

## What problems does photo organization solve?

- Photos scattered across phones and chats
- No context about where and when photos were taken
- Hours spent searching for evidence
- Photos lost when staff leave
- Weak documentation for disputes

## How do I organize photos in Jestor?

1. **Add photo fields** to daily reports, inspections and tasks.
2. **Link every photo record** to project, phase and area.
3. **Add a short description** and date automatically.
4. **Create filtered views** by project, phase and date.
5. **Share selected photos** with clients in progress updates.

| Photo type      | Attached to            |
| --------------- | ---------------------- |
| Daily progress  | Daily site report      |
| Before covering | Phase or task          |
| Issue evidence  | Punch list or incident |
| Handover        | Final checklist        |

## Why take photos before covering work?

Photos of pipes, wiring and structure before walls and floors are closed are valuable for future repairs and warranty claims.

Making them a required step in the checklist ensures they are taken.

## Why use Jestor for construction photos?

- **Photos with context**: linked to project, phase and area.
- **Mobile uploads**: taken and stored in one step.
- **Searchable records**: photos found by filters.
- **Company ownership**: photos stay with the company.

Photo records also improve client communication. Selecting a few photos per week for the client shows progress without extra work.

Naming conventions help too, since a short description with area and subject makes photos easy to search later.

This is how you keep photos organized by project and phase and find them when they matter.
