How a session lands on your calendar

Real Appointments booking page on a phone: picking a time slot

Clients book and pay on your page

From your link, on the dates you opened. No account to create. The slot holds for 10 minutes and confirms when the payment lands.

Shoot day runs without surprises

Email reminders go out ahead of every session. Clients confirm or cancel in one click, so you know before you set up the lights.

Mini sessions shouldn't sell out in your DMs.

You open twenty Saturday slots. Half book through DMs, deposits land on Venmo, and two families want the same 10:40. Appointments puts every slot on one page. Each slot holds for 10 minutes and confirms only when it's paid. A sold-out Saturday means the money is already in your account.

A calendar built around shoot days

Busy season repeats for 52 weeks, editing days stay blocked, and a conflict shows up with a suggested new time.

The session fee, paid up front

Clients pay 100% when they book, through Stripe, straight into your account. We take 0% of it. No payment, and the slot reopens in 10 minutes.

One page that sells out a Saturday

One link for all your mini session slots. Clients pick as guests, with no signup. Two people can't buy the same 10:40.

Regulars on a real series

You set the rhythm for the brand that shoots every month: weekly, every two weeks, or every four weeks. One link collects the whole month's sessions.

Reminders that confirm the lineup

Staged email reminders go out before every session. Clients confirm or cancel in one click. You know before the slot, not while you wait with the lights on.

Your studio team in one account

Owner, manager, and photographer roles. Calendars side by side to see the whole day. Commission per photographer and per service, with a dated history.

Fair price. Real value.

Questions photographers ask

Does Appointments work for photographers and studios?

Yes. Portraits, newborns, mini sessions, branding shoots, and studios rented by the hour all run on booked time. Solo shooters use their own page. Studios with several photographers add roles and per-photographer commissions in one account.

How do clients grab a mini session slot?

You open the slots and share one link. Clients pick a slot as guests, with no account to create. The slot holds for 10 minutes and confirms only when paid. A sold slot can't be sold again.

Can I take a deposit or retainer at booking?

No. Appointments collects the full session fee at booking, through Stripe, straight into your account. The session confirms already paid, so there is no balance to chase before shoot day.

I shoot for the same client every month. How do I bill that?

You set the series: weekly, every two weeks, or every four weeks. The month's booked sessions group into one payment link. Every invoice comes numbered in sequence.
