How to Share QR Codes and Links to the Digital Consent with a Photographer

Photographers often collect signatures on-site, making it important for them to access the Digital Consent quickly and easily. Skyfish provides several tools that allow you to share the consent with photographers so they can distribute it directly to signers during photo shoots or events.

Sharing the Digital Consent Link

Each Digital Consent includes a unique URL. You can share this link with the photographer so they can send it directly to signers.

  How to share the link:  

  1. Open the Digital Consent you created
  2. Copy the Consent URL displayed at the top
  3. Send it to the photographer via email, SMS, chat, or any internal communication tool
 
The photographer can then forward the link to individuals appearing in the photos.

Sharing the QR Code

Skyfish displays a QR code for every Digital Consent. This is ideal for photo shoots where people can scan and sign on the spot.

How photographers use the QR code:

  • Print it for placement at the shoot
  • Display it on a phone or tablet
  • Add it to signage or clipboards

Scanning the code opens the consent page on the signer’s device.

Using the QR Kit for On-Site Signature Collection

Skyfish also provides a downloadable QR Kit designed specifically for photographers and teams collecting many signatures in the field.

The QR Kit includes:

    • A print-ready PDF containing the QR code for on-site or field use
    • A sheet of QR codes ready to print as badges (ideal for large shoots, events, or group environments)

This makes it simple for photographers to set up a consistent, professional signing station.

 

When to use the QR Kit​

 

The QR Kit is especially useful when:

  • Many people need to complete the consent quickly
  • Individual link-sharing is impractical
  • You want scannable badges for photographers, assistants, or participants
  • You need an easy, reusable setup for recurring locations or events

What the Photographer Needs to Know

When you share the QR code, QR Kit, or link with a photographer, make sure they understand:

How signers complete the consent

  • Signers open the link or scan the QR code
  • They fill in required fields (name, email, and any additional fields you enabled)
  • They review and accept your privacy policy (if included)
  • They sign digitally on their device

What happens after signing

  • The signed consent is automatically returned to Skyfish
  • No action is required from the photographer
  • You can view the consent immediately in “All Digital Consents”

The photographer never handles personal data. They only facilitate access to the consent form.

Best Practices for Photographers

To ensure smooth signature collection on-site:

  • Place the QR Kit clearly where signers can easily see it
  • Print and wear QR code badges for fast access
  • Keep the link saved on a phone as backup
  • Encourage signers to complete the consent before participating in photos
  • Ensure every identifiable person in the shoot has signed
