FOR WEDDING & PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHERS

Wedding photographers, galleries clients open instead of lose

Your gallery emails get buried in inboxes, clients forget, and you're left resending for days. Photo AI culls and delivers galleries in hours, so clients see them before they move on.

Photography Studio Automation

The studio assistant that runs while you shoot

Stop losing bookings to slow follow-up. Photo AI handles every client touchpoint -- intake, prep emails, gallery delivery, print upsells -- automatically. You focus on the frame. We handle the inbox.

What Photo AI does

Every touchpoint, handled with care

From the first inquiry to the final print order, Photo AI keeps your clients informed, prepared, and delighted -- without you writing a single follow-up email.

📷

Smart Booking Intake

Customizable questionnaires fire the moment a booking lands. Capture session type, inspiration references, location preferences, and family details before the first call. Arrive prepared, not scrambling through old emails the morning of.

📅

Pre-Shoot Prep Sequences

Automatically send what-to-wear guides, shot list previews, and location details at the right intervals. Clients show up confident. You spend session time creating, not answering the same questions you answered last month for a different family.

🖼

Gallery Delivery Automation

Personalized gallery reveal emails with access codes, download instructions, and a curated selection preview. Timed to maximize first-open excitement and immediate print selections. Nothing generic, nothing forgotten.

💰

Print and Product Upsells

Follow-up sequences at 3, 7, and 14 days after gallery delivery highlight albums, wall art, and heirloom prints at exactly the right moment. Revenue from products averages 60% higher with timed reminders over one-time email blasts.

⭐

Review Requests

Automatically prompt clients for a Google or Yelp review after they open their gallery and download their favorites. Timing matters -- Photo AI fires the request at the peak of their excitement, not two weeks later when the feeling has faded.

🗡

Rebooking Campaigns

Anniversary reminders, seasonal mini-session invitations, and family portrait update nudges go out automatically based on each client's session history. Your past clients become your most reliable source of future bookings without a single cold call.

Getting started

Live in under an hour

No developer needed. No complicated setup. Photo AI connects to the tools you already use and handles the rest from the first booking forward.

01

Connect your booking system

Works with HoneyBook, Dubsado, 17hats, Calendly, Acuity, and manual bookings via email. If a client books you, Photo AI knows about it and starts the right sequence immediately.

02

Pick your session types

Wedding, portrait, newborn, commercial -- each gets its own intake questionnaire and prep sequence. Start with our ready-made templates and customize them until they sound exactly like you.

03

Set your delivery workflow

Tell Photo AI how you deliver galleries -- Pic-Time, ShootProof, SmugMug, Pixieset, or a direct link -- and it handles every follow-up touchpoint from reveal to final download confirmation.

04

Watch the inbox quiet down

Clients get timely, personal-feeling messages at every step. You get your evenings back. Every sent message is logged so you always know exactly what a client received and when they opened it.

Built for photographers, not marketers

Automation that sounds like you wrote it

Every message Photo AI sends is fully editable and written in your voice. We start with templates built from how top photographers actually communicate with clients, then you tune them until they feel right.

Clients will not know the email was automated. They will notice that you are thorough, warm, and prepared. That is what earns the five-star review and the referral call six months later.

  • +Edit any template at any time -- live changes apply to all future sends immediately
  • +Per-session overrides for clients who need a different approach
  • +Pause automation for any booking with a single click, no disruption to other clients
  • +Full send history visible at a glance for every client in your roster
  • +White-label on Studio plan -- your domain, your branding, your name in every send

Photographers using Photo AI

What changes after the first month

"I used to spend Sunday evenings catching up on client emails. Now I spend them editing. My upsell response rate went from almost nothing to covering my Photo AI subscription cost five times over in the first 90 days."

Mara Lindquist Wedding photographer, Minneapolis, MN

"The pre-shoot prep sequence alone was worth the price. Clients show up knowing exactly what to wear and what to expect. My session days feel completely different now. Calmer. More focused. I am actually present."

Derek Osei-Bonsu Portrait studio owner, Atlanta, GA

"I booked three anniversary sessions just from the rebooking sequence I set up on the first day. It runs completely on its own. I had genuinely forgotten it was running until the booking notifications started coming in."

Questions

Things photographers ask before signing up

Which booking and gallery tools does it connect to?

Photo AI connects to HoneyBook, Dubsado, 17hats, Calendly, and Acuity for bookings. For gallery delivery: Pic-Time, ShootProof, SmugMug, and Pixieset. More integrations are added monthly based on requests.

Can I control which clients receive automation?

Yes. You can pause automation per booking with one click. You can also exclude specific clients from specific sequences, which is useful for corporate accounts or longtime clients who prefer direct communication.

Will my clients know they are getting automated messages?

No, not unless you tell them. Messages go from your email address, use your name, and match your voice once you tune the templates. They read like personal messages because you wrote the originals.

What happens if I need to cancel?

Your account is downgraded to read-only. All your historical logs, client records, and templates are preserved for 12 months. If you reactivate, everything is right where you left it with no data loss.

Is there a contract or annual commitment?

No contracts. Month to month on all plans. An annual option is available at a 20% discount if you want to lock in the rate, but it is never required to get started or stay on the platform.

How long does setup actually take?

Most photographers are fully live within 45 minutes. The onboarding wizard walks you through connecting your tools, choosing your session types, and reviewing your first template set. We timed this with 200 studios during beta.

Your inbox should not run your business

14 days free, no credit card required. Connect your booking tool and see your first automation sequence live in under an hour. Cancel any time, keep your templates.
