Sessions, shoots and wedding dates

Photography scheduling software

Photography scheduling software for portrait sessions and weddings. Families book a mini or full session online for exactly its length, a wedding date is held the moment the couple signs and pays the retainer, and location, timeline and shot notes ride along on every shoot.

Sessions booked online

A 20-minute mini session and a 90-minute family session carry their own lengths, so the booking page fills a Saturday of minis without overlap. Number of people and location preference are booking questions.

Online booking

Wedding dates held by contract

Weddings are not booked from a slot. The couple signs the package with your terms and pays the retainer, and the date is on the calendar from then on.

Estimates and e-signatures

Locations and timelines

The venue, the first-look spot and the family shot list go on the shoot, and second shooters see them on their phones on the day.

Job management

Golden hour reschedules

When rain rules out an outdoor session, drag it to another evening, and the family gets the new time by text.

Calendar scheduling

Session reminders

Clients are reminded the day before with outfit and location tips, and again on the morning of the shoot.
