This often takes time away from their creative work and, for some, even makes them quit their dream career.That is why we build simple, time-saving software that helps photographers run their businesses more easily. Our goal is to give them more time to focus on creating art.We started the company in 2010, founded by two wedding photographers who understood these problems first-hand. They wanted to save time, earn better income, and have a better life. Technology became the answer.We believe that by building a great product and offering honest service, we can create a business that helps people and grows successfully at the same time.Our long-term vision is to support over one million photography businesses. We want photographers to simply upload their photos, while we take care of the rest. We believe in autonomous teams, meaningful work, and a healthy work-life balance.
