“We’re absolutely in love with the Studio Manager! Since launching it in 2021, we honestly can’t imagine how we managed without it. Having all our clients, invoices, contracts, and information in one place has streamlined our workflow, making the client experience easier, faster, and more professional.”

“I book on average 100 senior photo sessions between June-November each year…it’s exhausting doing all of the scheduling myself. Then I discovered Pixieset’s booking site. I LOVE it!! It’s already made my new bookings so much easier. I just send clients to my booking site, they pick a package and date, I approve it, and we’re set.”

From the booking site to the invoice system, having a calendar with all of your bookings, and a gallery system all in one. Pixieset makes it so easy for me to use. I have never been more organized with my bookings.”
