Invoicing

Send it, get paid, know what you kept.

A branded invoice with the shoot date on it. Your clients can pay it by card in the app. The cash and checks you take get logged, so your totals stay honest, and the shoot date puts the session on your calendar at the same time.

An invoice that looks like your studio.

Every invoice carries your logo and your studio details, from an early draft to the moment it is paid. Add the line items a session needs, and a discount or tax when the job calls for one.

  • Draft to paid, with every status in between
  • Your logo and studio details on every invoice
  • Line items, discounts and tax, added as the job needs them

Paid in the app

They can pay without chasing a link.

Your clients can pay an invoice by card in the ApertureBook app, and it updates itself the moment they do. After your studio is approved for online payments, you connect a Stripe account a single time, and there is no separate bill for either of you to chase down.

  • Pay by card right in the ApertureBook app
  • The invoice updates itself when they do
  • One Stripe connection; no separate bill to chase

On the record

Cash and checks count too.

Log the cash and checks you take by hand against the invoice they belong to, so your totals reflect the money that actually arrived rather than what you billed.

  • Log a cash or check payment against any invoice
  • Partial payments update the balance due
  • Every report is built from what actually arrived

Common questions

Can my clients pay an invoice by card?

Yes. Your clients can pay by card in the ApertureBook app, and the invoice updates itself when they do. You apply for online payments once, and after approval you connect a Stripe account.

Can I record a payment someone made in cash?

Yes. Log the cash and checks you take against the invoice they belong to. Every report is built from the payments you have actually recorded, so your totals reflect real money in rather than what you billed.

Is invoicing included on the free plan?

Yes. Invoicing is on every plan, including the free one, along with contracts, forms and scheduling, and any plan can apply for online card payments. Client messaging is the one feature that needs a paid plan.

Does an invoice schedule the session too?

Yes. The shoot date you put on an invoice is what puts the session on your calendar. There is no second place to enter it.
