Booking software / Photographers
Booking software for photographers.
Clients pick a session, pay the retainer, and tell you about the shoot, all in one booking. Run mini-session days with fixed time slots, and stop holding dates for people who never send the deposit.
Free plan · No credit card required · No per-seat fees
Problems BookingAide solves for photographers.
01
Holding dates without a retainer
The session isn't confirmed until the deposit is paid, so you never hold a date for someone who disappears.
02
Mini-session scheduling
Publish a block of short slots and let families claim them first-come, first-served.
03
Missing shoot details
Ask about location, outfits, group size, and must-have shots when they book.
Everything your photographer needs to take bookings.

Questions from photographers
Can I require a retainer to book a session?
Yes. Require a deposit on any session type and the booking is confirmed only after it's paid.
Can I run mini sessions?
Yes. Create a set of fixed time slots for the day and clients book one slot each.
Can I ask clients questions before the shoot?
Yes. Intake questions collect location, outfits, group size, and anything else you need.
Is there a monthly fee?
Not on the Free plan. You pay a small platform fee only on paid bookings.
