The photographer’s operating system
Everything a photographer needs.From contract to delivery.
Hotshoe brings contracts, cloud storage, AI culling, client galleries, scheduling and invoicing into one platform built for professional photographers — from the first signed contract to the delivered gallery.
Built for studios across every genre
How it flows
One client.Seven quiet steps.
01
/ 07The contract signs itself
A client says yes, and Hotshoe takes it from there — your contract template, their details, and a legally binding e-signature with a full audit trail. The deposit is set on signing, ready for Stripe checkout.
The platform
Every tool. One workflow.
Five pillars replace the patchwork of single-purpose subscriptions — each one designed around how photographers actually work.

Representative studio workflows — illustrative, not customer quotes
Contract, deposit, shoot, cull, gallery — a wedding studio runs the whole job in one place that looks like their brand, not a patchwork of logins.
Wedding & elopement studiosrepresentative workflowPortrait and family shooters send a contract, schedule the session, and deliver a guestbook gallery — fewer email threads, more sessions on the calendar.
Portrait & family studiosrepresentative workflowCommercial teams keep the brief, the edit and the delivery gallery in one project, so the agency, the client and the retoucher are always looking at the same frames.
Commercial & brand teamsrepresentative workflowEvent and conference photographers cull thousands of frames with the wizard and ship a highlight gallery the same day — the pipeline does the busywork.
