# The CRM for photographers and studios.

From the first WhatsApp enquiry to the last album page, built for how studios in India work.

## What it does

- [Client galleries and proofing](https://isodesk.io/features/client-galleries): Share a shoot with one link. Clients heart photos, comment and send picks up to a limit you set. Sets for each event, private sets, PIN and download control.
- [Album picker](https://isodesk.io/features/album-picker): Clients pick photos for the printed album from the gallery, place them on spreads and send them. You design, send it back for review and print.
- [Selling prints and photos](https://isodesk.io/features/selling-prints-and-photos): Give some photos free and sell the rest as premium, watermarked until bought. Your own price sheet on every gallery: photos, prints, canvases and albums. Buyers pay by UPI, or online through Razorpay.
- [Selfie search](https://isodesk.io/features/selfie-search): Guests take a selfie and see only the photos they are in. They are told what happens first, and the selfie is deleted right after the match.
- [WhatsApp delivery](https://isodesk.io/features/whatsapp-delivery): Gallery links, album links, quotes, invoices and receipts go to clients on WhatsApp from your studio's own number, with a monthly allowance on each plan.
- [Projects and CRM](https://isodesk.io/features/projects-and-crm): Every enquiry in one pipeline with follow-ups. Bookings become projects with their events and crew, on one calendar, with clash warnings and a Today page.
- [Quotes and GST invoices](https://isodesk.io/features/quotes-and-gst-invoices): Make a quote from a template and the client accepts it online. Tax invoices with SAC, CGST and SGST or IGST, numbered by financial year, with a UPI QR.
- [Automatic culling](https://isodesk.io/features/ai-culling): Sort a shoot into picks, maybes and rejects. Blurred, dark, blown-out and duplicate frames are flagged and the best frame of each burst is picked. Runs on our servers.
- [Studio homepage](https://isodesk.io/features/studio-homepage): A public page for your studio with your about, contact details, Instagram, a WhatsApp button and an enquiry form that lands in your CRM.

## Enquiries

They arrive on WhatsApp, Instagram and through your cousin. They all land in one place.

- Can I take this date?: Check a date and see who else wants it or holds it, before you say yes.
- Every enquiry on one board: A board or a table, filtered by type, source, owner and follow-up due.
- Who needs you first: A card says which enquiry to answer next.
- A form on your page and on your site: Name and phone are enough. It works on your studio page, and it embeds on your own website.
- A Get a quote page: A longer form with up to six dates and a budget range, which makes an enquiry by itself.
- Add one from a call: Add an enquiry from Instagram, WhatsApp or a call. The phone number is tidied to +91.
- Follow-ups suggested, never sent for you: It says when to follow up. One tap opens your own WhatsApp or email and logs it.
- Where your bookings come from: Enquiries and rupees by source, with a link for your Instagram bio and tracked links for the rest.
- A reason for every lost enquiry: Marking one lost asks why. Won or lost, you can open it again.

## Quotes

The quote is often the first thing a family sees of your studio, so it should look like your studio.

- A quote that reads like a proposal: Your note, your work, your reviews and your extras, then accept and pay on one page.
- Accepted by typing a name: The client types their name on the quote page, and you have your yes.
- Extras they add themselves: A client chooses an extra, and it becomes a line on the quote.
- A price check from your own history: Compare with your own accepted and declined quotes of the same type, and see what is left after crew and expenses.
- Revise without the confusion: A new version marks the older one superseded, and shows the original and the agreed price.
- GST on each line: SAC, quantity, discount and GST rate per line, with prices with or without GST, and live totals.
- Round to the figure you agreed: A discount in rupees or percent with a round-to figure. GST is worked after it.
- Quote to invoice in one press: A sent or accepted quote copies into a draft invoice.
- AI suggests the lines: It drafts line items into the editor. Nothing is saved until you keep it.

## Getting paid

Advance, part payment, cash at the venue, a bank transfer from the uncle. All of it counts.

- Book it: An enquiry becomes a client and a project, tentative until the first payment comes in.
- A UPI QR with the amount in it: The client scans and pays you directly, then sends the UTR or a screenshot for you to confirm.
- Online on your own Razorpay: Add your own keys, and clients pay invoices online with no platform fee.
- Payment schedules in parts: Your own template for booking, before the first event and on delivery, changed for each project when it needs to be.
- Cash in one tap: Record it at the venue. You get a warning, never a block, when one person's cash nears your limit.
- Numbered receipts: A client opens the receipt with no account. It says plainly that it is not a tax invoice.
- A receipt voucher for an advance: With a GSTIN and no invoice yet, an advance gets a voucher with the GST split out.
- Overdue, grouped by project: Reminders open on your own phone with the words filled in.
- Weddings abroad, in their money (New): Rupees by default, or USD, GBP, AED, CAD, AUD, EUR or SGD on a project.

## GST and your books

Your CA should be able to read what you send. Nobody should have to fix the numbering in March.

- GST invoices with gap-free numbers: SAC lines, CGST and SGST or IGST by place of supply, numbered by financial year, with the total in words.
- Not registered? A plain invoice: No GST charged, with the line that says so.
- Credit notes in their own series: A note lowers the invoice balance. Numbers never get reused.
- Settle a balance honestly: A no-GST commercial note, or a write-off line, with who chose it on record.
- Void with a reason: The reason stays in the history.
- A money book, kept for you: Cash, bank and UPI accounts. Payments in are recorded by themselves, and you add payments out by category. It holds no money.
- Bills on every entry: Attach the bill to the entry it belongs to.
- Tally export: Vouchers and ledgers, ready to import into Tally. The money book also exports as CSV.
- TDS on crew payments: Pick the rate when you pay, then see totals per person and mark it deposited.

## Dates

The date decides everything, so a clash should reach you long before the morning of the shoot.

- Your month at a glance: Projects, events with crew initials, payments and deliverables due, on a grid or as a list on a phone.
- Clashes warned, never blocked: The same person on two events gets a warning. You still decide.
- Busy elsewhere: Clash checks see a person's bookings in other studios, shown only as busy.
- Crew by days of the month: See who is free across the month at once.
- Google Calendar: Each teammate connects their own, and the owner or manager connects the studio's.
- Private calendar links: One link per teammate, one for the studio, one per invited client. A new link stops the old one.
- Crew reminders: A day before and three hours before by default, and you can change them per event.
- Every event in its own time zone: A destination wedding shows both local time and IST to you, and local time to the client.
- Venue search: Pick the place, and the address, city and zone fill themselves.

## Weddings with many days

A wedding is not one event. Here it is the haldi, the mehendi, the muhurtham and the reception, each with its own plan.

- One project, every function: Haldi, mehendi, sangeet, muhurtham, nikah, reception, seemantham or your own, each with date, times, crew call, venue and side.
- Not only weddings: Half-saree, annaprasana, upanayanam, naming ceremony, house warming, maternity, corporate, product and more.
- Today: Today's events with crew, and what is due, what to follow up and what is yours to do.
- The next step, always named: Enquiry to close on one rail. It guides and never blocks.
- Your own way of working: Switch steps off, reorder them or add your own, for each type of project.
- Event tasks that count from the event: Due times from the start or crew call, with holders by person or role. AI can draft the list.
- Who to call on the day: Family and coordinators, with their side, for the crew to reach.
- A shot list the client never sees: Team instructions and shot list stay yours. Dress code, parking and the on-site contact can be shared.
- Deliverables you cannot forget: A checklist with due days, linked to the gallery or album. Add the usual items in one press.
- Project chat: A conversation on each project, with the people on it.

## Crew and pay

Who is shooting, who is free, and who is still owed for the last wedding.

- A crew plan for each event: What each event needs, who fills it, who to ask next, and the cost against the quote.
- Who to ask next: Ranked by free on the date, role, nearness, favourites, past work with you and rate against budget.
- Tell the crew once: Each person gets their event, date, time and venue. Pressing again tells only people whose details changed.
- Find a photographer: A directory by place, skill, language, day rate and free dates. Send a request, and they accept, decline or counter.
- Rates stay private: Only the owner, admin, manager and the person can see a rate.
- Agreements to pay run: Agreement, advance, expense claims, statements, a pay run and a bank file. The platform never holds or pays money.
- Earnings the crew can see: Agreed, paid and owed per booking, and a tap for I received it.
- Did this project make money? (New): Today's profit and a forecast, and a card at close that compares similar projects.
- A page of your own (New): A freelancer gets a profile, a portfolio and a public page, with no studio needed.
- Roles that fit a studio: Owner, admin, manager, photographer, editor and viewer. Photographers and editors see only their projects.

## Gear inventory

Know what you own, who has it, and what you are short of for Saturday.

- Everything you own, in one list: Cameras, lenses, lights, gimbals, drones, audio, cards and drives, with kits, condition and owner.
- Short on a date? You see it: Give gear to events, and it warns when cameras or drones are short or clash.
- Check out and check in: A record of who holds what, and since when.
- QR labels: A label opens the item's page for your team. A stranger who scans it learns nothing.
- Service, damage and loss: Costs, bills and photos on the item, with insurance details beside them.
- A record of every data copy: Note where each shoot is copied, and how many copies are checked. It records what you tell it.
- Rental kits priced for your shoot (Coming soon): Kits and prices from CineRentals for the shoot's dates and city, on the shoot itself.

## Camera exchange

- Lend your gear in your city (Coming soon): Lend a camera or lens to other photographers near you on the days you are not using it, for extra cash. It is not open yet.

## Culling

Thousands of frames, and a family waiting. Get through the first pass faster, and keep the final say.

- Automatic culling that leaves you the call: Picks, maybes and rejects, sorted by sharpness, exposure and near-duplicate bursts. Your choice always wins.
- Strict, balanced or lenient: Choose for each run. The same photos give the same result.
- Keyboard first: P to pick, M for maybe, X to reject, 1 to 5 for stars, Space to compare.
- Hide rejects in one step: They leave the client gallery, and Show all again brings them back.
- Picks for Lightroom: Copy the file names as one line and paste it into Lightroom's filename filter.
- Your photos stay with us: No photo goes to an outside AI company for culling or selfie search.

## Galleries

One link, no account for the family, and your work at its full size on their phone.

- One link for the whole family: No account. A full-screen viewer that swipes, with a set for each function.
- Everyone, Family or Just us: Each set has its own level, with the bride's side and the groom's side, and their own PIN.
- Selfie search for guests (Pro and Studio): Guests see the photos they are in. The selfie is deleted after the search.
- Hearts, print lists, comments, ratings: Clients heart, rate, comment and flag. You resolve and reply.

- Uploads that survive bad internet: Large files go in parts and resume. iPhone HEIC turns into JPEG in the browser.
- See who opened it: Opens, visitors, photos viewed and downloads.

## Photos by email

Your studio gets its own address. Clients and guests email their photos to it, and you choose what reaches the gallery.

- An address in your studio's name (New): Such as lensandlight@isodesk.io. It matches your studio's name or yours, and some names wait for a person to check them.
- An upload page for big files: Files too large to email go through your address's own upload page.
- Nothing kept until you say so: Photos from a client or a sender you allowed, when we can confirm it is really them, go to your folder. Everything else waits in Review for 30 days.
- Waiting photos use no storage: Photos in Review don't count towards your plan.
- Accept, block or delete: Choose photos, then Accept, Always accept this sender, Block or Delete.
- Into the gallery, hidden first: Press Add to gallery. The photos stay hidden until you choose Show.
- A link for one client: Make a link on a client's page so that client skips Review. It is shown once.

## Albums

Choosing album photos is where weeks disappear. This is the part clients can finish themselves.

- Clients pick spread by spread: Pick, arrange and send. It saves by itself.
- Place the rest for me: One press fills the remaining spreads, for the client to change.
- Your sizes, your limits: 12x36, 12x30, 10x30, 12x24, 10x24, 8x24 or your own, with up to 200 spreads and a least and most for photos.
- Approved by the right person: A one-time code or the client's page. Everyone else sees only the status and the count.
- Every state in the open: Submitted, designing, client review, approved or changes asked for, printing, delivered.
- File names for your designer: One line per photo, with its spread number.
- Pick for them, when you have to: A client with no way to get a code? You pick, or mark it approved.

## Your store

Prints and downloads, sold inside the gallery, under your name.

- A shop inside the gallery: Cart and checkout, with a numbered order. Address and PIN are asked only when something ships.

- Team chat: Direct and project channels, with files, mentions and unread counts.

## Free RSVP for event managers, hosts and guests

Start an event from your phone. Guests RSVP for each function. Hosts and guests pay nothing, and guests need no app and no sign-up.

## RSVP for every function

Guests RSVP for each function from one link, and the caterer gets a real number, not one big maybe.

- An RSVP for each function: Yes, no or maybe, with how many people, function by function.
- No account to RSVP: A name, a phone or email, and how many people. No app and no password.
- Your headcount, worked out: One total, with each guest counted once at the most people they said yes for.
- The guest list as a spreadsheet: Download it as a CSV and hand it to whoever needs it.
- Directions and a calendar file: Each function shows its time and place, a map link, and a file that adds it to the guest's calendar.
- Change my RSVP: Plans change. A signed-in guest opens their RSVP again and updates it, and your count stays right.
- Reminders only for those who ask (Coming soon): A tick box, never ticked for them. At most two reminders for a function, and unticking stops them.

## Set it up from your phone

No studio needed. Add your functions, and you have two links for the family WhatsApp group by lunchtime.

- Free for you and for every guest (Free): Hosts and guests pay isodesk nothing. There is no plan to choose and no card to add.
- Up to 10 events at a time: One sign-in runs up to 10 open events, each with its own functions, guests and photos. Together they hold up to 75 GB of photos, up to 25 GB for each event, kept for 6 months after its last function.
- Every function on one page: Haldi, sangeet, muhurtham, nikah, reception, or a function we have not named. Up to twelve, each with its own date and place, in any language you type.
- Two links, one event: Everyone gets one link. Family gets another that adds the family functions. There is no PIN to explain.
- Family functions stay family: Tick a function as family only, and the Everyone page shows nothing of it: no name, no place, no date, no map.
- Share it on your own WhatsApp: One press opens WhatsApp with the words and the link filled in. You choose who gets it.

## Every guest brings a camera

One QR code on your poster, and the photos from every phone in the room come to one album, free: up to 25 GB for each event, at up to 25 MB a photo.

- A QR poster, ready to print: Posters, invitations and QR cards in your event's design, with its hashtag. Print one and put it up. A scan opens the upload page.
- Add photos with no app: Guests add photos from the phone in their hand, with no sign-up.
- Nothing shows until you say so: Guest photos arrive hidden. You show them, move them or remove them, many at a time.
- Photos find their function: A photo goes to the function nearest its upload day. If that is wrong, you move it.
- Guests see only their own, if you choose: One setting shows a guest only the photos they are in, in place of the whole gallery.
- A plain warning before the first photo: We tell you first: a forwarded link lets someone else see and save the photos. Then you decide.
- Report this photo: Anyone can report a photo they can see, with no sign-in. You choose to hide it or keep it.

## Find yourself with a selfie

A guest should not have to scroll a whole wedding to find the three photos they are in.

- Selfie search: A guest takes a selfie and sees the photos they are in. On a phone, the front camera opens by itself.
- The selfie is deleted after the search: The page says so before it is taken. The selfie is used once, and a search that fails deletes it too.
- Faces stay inside one event: A face is never matched across events. Face data goes when the gallery closes.
- Save with a heart: One heart on each photo, and nothing else to learn.
- Download what you saved: A signed-in guest downloads their saved photos as one zip.
- Save to Google Drive™ or Google Photos (Coming soon): Guests copy the photos they may download into a new folder or album in their own Google account, free. Google Drive and Google Photos are trademarks of Google LLC. isodesk is not made, sponsored or endorsed by Google.
- Keep my photos: Verify once, and saved photos and selfie matches follow you to any device.
- All your events on one page: A cousin's wedding, a friend's reception, your own studio booking: one sign-in, with no password.
- Were you at these?: After you verify, earlier replies with the same contact are shown by name and date. Yes opens the event, and No is remembered.

## It ends when you can see it end

An event page is not meant to stay online for ever, so we tell you the day it closes.

- A closing day you can see: A gallery closes six months after the last function, and you see the date as soon as photos can come in.
- Closing means deleted: The photos, the face data, the replies and the guest list are deleted on that day.
- Close it early: Delete the event whenever you like. It runs the same closing.
- A small memory stays: Your page keeps the event's name and date, so you can still say you were there.
- See what we hold about you: Your account page counts what is kept about you, from every place it is kept.
- Delete your own account: You do it yourself, and you choose whether the photos you added go too.
