# How to add fields to photos using Advanced Photo Branding

> Learn how to add fields to photos using Advanced Photo Branding in ServiceM8.

Whenever you add a photo to a Job Diary, ServiceM8 automatically records the date it was saved. By default, when you email a photo from the Job Diary to a client, it is branded with your business name, job number, and date saved, providing a helpful, professional record for both you and your client.

You can customise that branding even more using Advanced Photo Branding. This free ServiceM8 add-on gives you access to additional fields that can be added to a photo, helping you meet your specific business or industry requirements.
