After the booking

The whole thing, in order.

One booking, from the moment they commit to the moment they have the photos. Every step in one place for you, and in one app for them.

01

The invoice goes out

Send a branded invoice with the shoot date on it. Your clients can pay it by card in the app.

How invoicing works
02

The contract gets signed

Send it for signature and watch it come back. Everyone gets the signed PDF, and it files itself with the client.

How contracts work
03

The details come back filled in

Send a questionnaire for the timeline, the addresses, the family list. It reminds them so you do not have to.

How forms work
04

The date is already on your calendar

The shoot date on that invoice is what put the session there. Nothing to enter twice.

How scheduling works
05

One conversation, not five

Every question about the shoot in one thread, beside the work it is about.

How messaging works
06

The gallery lands in their app

They get a notification, browse on the web or the app, heart their favorites, and save the full-resolution files.

How the client app works
Deliver beautifully

Delivery that looks as good as the work.

Upload once and every client gets a private, on-brand gallery. Full resolution, watermark protection while they preview, and downloads that simply work.

  • Private per-client galleries, opened with a sign-in link their email and shoot date bring to their inbox.
  • Full-resolution downloads, one photo or the whole gallery at once.
  • Built-in watermark protection on previews; clean originals on download.
  • Fast-loading images that open in a snap on any connection.

One app for them

Give them an app, not a folder of links.

ApertureBook puts your photos in a real native app on iPhone and Android. Clients browse, heart the ones they love, and save straight to their camera roll, then get a notification the moment you share a gallery.

  • Native iOS and Android apps, free for your clients to download.
  • Save to camera roll into a gallery-named album, in full resolution.
  • Favorites that sync back to you, so you know exactly which shots they love.
  • Push notifications when you share a gallery. No more chasing emails.

One conversation

Talk to clients where the work is.

Every question about a shoot ends up scattered across texts, DMs, and your personal inbox. ApertureBook keeps it where the work is: one conversation per client, in your studio inbox and in their app.

  • One thread per client, sitting right beside their galleries, invoices, and contracts.
  • They reply from the app, you reply from your inbox on the web.
  • A push the moment you send, so it does not sit unread for a week.
  • An email catches what they miss, and they can reply straight to it, back into the conversation.

The invoice already scheduled it.

Write an invoice with a shoot date and it is already on your calendar. Nothing to enter twice. Block out the days you are not working and they come off the board the same way a session would.

  • One calendar for every session, whatever else is already on your plate that day.
  • Block time right from the calendar, in a couple of clicks.
  • One invoice does it. Its shoot date is what puts the session on the calendar.

Nothing falls through

The follow-up happens without you.

The part you forget on a busy week is the part your client notices. These keep going when you are shooting.

  • Forms remind themselves. Up to two nudges go out on their own, and stop the moment the form comes back.
  • Sharing a gallery sends a push. Your client knows it is there without an email they might miss.
  • Unread messages turn into an email. With a button that opens the conversation.
  • Overdue invoices say so. You see who still owes you and for how long.

Your studio, not ours

It should look like your work, not our software.

Your clients see your name on everything they open. The software stays out of the way.

  • Your name and logo on every gallery, invoice and client email.
  • Your accent color on the pages clients open.
  • A public portfolio at your own link.
  • Emails sent for you, carrying your studio's details.
