The Manifesto

The Problem We Lived

Eight hours a week.

That's how much time we lost. Not shooting, not editing, not with our families, but drowning in admin chaos.

Chasing invoices in email threads. Printing contracts, scanning signatures, renaming files for the third time. Switching between seven different apps just to send a client a simple timeline. Forgetting to follow up on that inquiry from two weeks ago, the one that could've been a $6,000 booking.

We looked for a solution. A real one.

We found bloated CRMs designed for sales teams, not creatives.

We found accounting software that required a finance degree.

We found "all-in-one" platforms that did everything poorly.

So we did what photographers do best: we built it ourselves.

What We Believe

Software should fit your workflow, not force you into theirs.

You're not a sales rep closing deals on a phone. You're not an accountant staring at spreadsheets all day. You're a photographer. Your business runs on projects, timelines, creative collaboration, and trust.

The tools you use should understand that.

Admin work shouldn't steal your weekends.

Every hour spent chasing payments or organizing contracts is an hour you're not shooting. Not creating. Not living. We believe your business should work for you, not demand you work for it.

Photographers shouldn't have to compromise.

You shouldn't have to choose between a tool that handles contracts or invoices or client portals. You shouldn't need to glue together five apps with duct tape and hope they sync. You deserve a system that does it all — and does it right.

Great tools are built by the people who use them.

We're not a tech company trying to "disrupt" photography. We're photographers who wanted something better. We lived the pain. We know the workflow. We understand what matters when you're juggling three weddings, two mini-sessions, and a corporate gig, all while trying to remember which client still owes you money.

This isn't software built for photographers.

It's software built by photographers.

What We're Building

We're creating a suite, a complete system, where everything a photography business needs lives in one place.

No more app juggling.

No more data scattered across tools that don't talk to each other.

No more "we'll add that feature in the next update" promises that never come.

Here's what we've built so far:

• • Projects that make sense. Timelines, tasks, notes — everything organized the way you actually work.
• • Contracts people sign. Digital, fast, no printing required. Client signs from their phone. You get a notification. Done.
• • Invoices that get paid. Stripe integration, automatic reminders, payment tracking. Less chasing, more shooting.
• • Client portals that work. Each client gets a private page: contracts, invoices, questionnaires, galleries (coming soon). They stop emailing you questions because it's all right there.
• • Moodboards you collaborate on. Drag, drop, annotate. Share with clients. Iterate together. No more attachment hell.

How This Gets Built

Here's the part that matters:

You shape this.

Every feature we build, every decision we make, it's guided by real photographers using the tool every day. We're not locking ourselves in a room, coding in the dark, and hoping it's what you need.

We're listening. We're iterating. We're building in public.

You tell us what's broken. You tell us what's missing. You tell us what would save you five hours next week. And we build it.

This isn't a "set it and forget it" product. It's a living, breathing system that evolves because your feedback is the roadmap.

Who This Is For

If you're a photographer who:

• • Spends more time on admin than you'd like to admit,
• • Loses sleep over forgotten invoices or unsigned contracts,
• • Wishes your business ran smoother so you could focus on what you love,
• • Wants tools that respect your time and your craft —

This is for you.

Wedding photographers juggling ten bookings at once.

Portrait photographers managing mini-sessions and client galleries.

Commercial photographers navigating complex projects and deliverables.

If you're tired of compromising, this is the system we wish we'd had five years ago.

Why Now

Because we're done waiting for someone else to build it.

We're done with "good enough." We're done with tools that almost work but require workarounds. We're done with platforms that treat photographers like an afterthought.

The industry deserves better.

You deserve better.

So we built it. And now we're inviting you to be part of it.
