How to Customize Your Scale Studio

Change Scale Studio settings like Branding, Settings & Guidelines, Access and Review functionality, Form Fields, and More.

Branding

Settings on the Branding tab affect what your users will see when they go to take and submit a headshot. The title, logo, background, and colors are all applied to the user interface. Make any changes here and click save in the top right corner. You can also preview your studio at any time.

Emails

Settings on the Emails tab let you customize the styling of the emails sent to your contacts -- invitations, reminders, approval notifications, and download links. The default styling is monochrome and matches the platform UI.

Logo
Upload a logo to display in the body of contact-facing emails. This is separate from the logo on your Branding tab, so you can use a different image here if you'd like.

Colors
Adjust the accent colors used in email body content to match your brand.

Custom Email Sender
By default, emails are sent from noreply@scaleheadshots.com. If you'd like to configure a custom "From" email address for transactional emails, please contact support. We'll set up the required DNS and sender configuration on your behalf.

Settings & Guidelines

On the Settings & Guideline tab, you can customize the instructions shown to your user, optionally add a disclaimer, and finally customize image settings like background removal, AI enhancement, and Framing.

Guidelines
Instructions for users to follow when posing for their photo.

Disclaimer
Optionally, show a disclaimer before a user proceeds with photo submissions.

Outline
How users are guided to frame themselves in the photo.

Remove Background
Automatically remove the background of submitted photos

Enhance with AI
Automatically enhance original photos using AI. Correction includes lighting, color, and upscaling when needed

Access & Review

Under Access and Review, you can customize settings around photo reviewing for you as an admin and overall Studio access. Alternate between auto accepting submissions or requiring reviews should you show the images to the user at the end and also is your Studio public.

Require Submission Review
All submissions for this studio must be accepted or rejected by an Admin.

Auto-Accept Submissions
All submissions for this Studio are automatically accepted.

Show Gallery
Display a gallery screen to contacts once their submission is accepted. This will show the final transformed image to your users.

Suggest Mobile Device
If the user is on a non-mobile device, show a message suggesting they use their phone. Mobile devices have better cameras and image quality is important for headshots.

Require Email Verification
Require contacts to verify their email address before submitting photos.

Access

  • Private - only users with an invitation can submit

  • Public - anyone with the Studio link can submit

Invite Reminders
Automatically send reminder emails to contacts who have been invited and have yet to submit.

Form Fields

Use form fields to collect information while someone is taking their photo. Adding a form field will show the user a new field for them to fill out while taking their headshot. It will then get saved to their contact information. Use this to collect information like employee Badge #, birthday, office, department, or branch.

Contact Attributes

Use custom attributes to validate contact information. For example, you may have a custom employee ID # that you want shown for every contact or you may wish to import and sort by an "Employee start date".
