← All ten editions
You are good behind the camera. What nobody prepared you for is the inquiry that goes quiet after you send your rates, the client who has not paid the balance and is asking where the gallery is, and the fact that you have no idea whether you actually made money this year.
The shooting was never the hard part.
What you get
Three files. Set your session prices and deposit once and everything else follows.
- A ten tab workbook built for photography. Inquiries, held dates, bookings, deposits, and a shoots tab that tracks a session from date held through editing to gallery sent. Deposit math handled for you.
- Eighteen prompts for a free AI tool. Working out what a session actually earns you per hour once editing is counted, writing a deposit and cancellation policy, handling the request for all the unedited files, and filling a dead January.
- Ten messages ready to send. Including the pre shoot message that means nobody arrives confused, and the balance request that gets paid the same day without you ever having to sound like a collections notice.
Built for this trade
The dropdowns are already filled in with the work you actually do, so you are picking from a list instead of typing the same thing over and over.

This is for you if
- You shoot portraits, families, events, or weddings on your own
- Most inquiries come through Instagram
- You have delivered a gallery before collecting the balance and regretted it
This is not for you if
- You have a studio manager and a booking system
- You want an app. This is a spreadsheet that opens in Google Sheets or Excel
You did not get into this to run a business. You still have to. This makes that part take twenty minutes a week instead of ruining your Sundays.
