What is a project milestone in a photography workflow?
Short answer
A dated step in a project timeline that triggers reminders and auto-tasks.
Full definition
A milestone is a date-bound checkpoint in the photographer-client project — booking confirmed, deposit paid, engagement session shot, balance due, gallery delivered, review request sent. Milestones drive automated reminders (email or in-portal) so neither party has to remember next steps. 12img Automated Workflows tie email sequences and tasks to milestone events.
