How it works
Photography requests come from people planning events, growing families, or needing professional images. First responders with portfolios and availability usually book the session.
Pick your local Facebook groups. Share the URLs for neighborhood groups, parent groups, wedding planning groups, and community boards where people ask for photography. We monitor both public and private groups.
Set your keywords. We watch for terms like 'photographer,' 'family photos,' 'wedding photographer,' 'newborn photos,' 'headshots,' 'photography,' and phrases that signal someone needs a photographer.
Get alerts within 60 seconds. When someone posts about needing a photographer, you get an alert in Slack, email, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, or through a webhook to Zapier, Make, or n8n.
Reply first with your portfolio. Click the link, read what type of session they need, and leave a comment with your experience and a link to your work.

Frequently asked questions
How many Facebook groups should a photographer monitor?
Most photographers do well with 15 to 25 local groups. Photography requests come steadily from neighborhoods and special interest groups. Groups Watcher includes 25 groups for $99 per month.
Can I focus on weddings and skip family or newborn sessions?
Yes. You can set keywords to focus on wedding terms and adjust the AI intent score to filter out other types of sessions. Every post gets a 0 to 100 score, so you can keep only the leads that match your specialty.
Do I need to be a member of the Facebook groups?
No. Groups Watcher monitors groups without using your Facebook account. We handle the monitoring, and you just get the alerts.
What if I want to add parent groups or wedding planning groups?
You can add extra groups for $4 per month each. Special interest groups often produce more photography leads than general neighborhood groups.
