Encourage local reviews
When growing a photography business, reviews go a long way. Get more testimonials by sending out personalized post-appointment messages asking customers for a glowing Google review.
Clearly communicate your tips and policies
Got a clear policy for no-shows? What about tips for how to dress the kids for a family photoshoot? Put it all on your personalized booking page and make sure clients have direct access to everything they need to know.
Connect all your calendars
Your customers can proactively choose an appointment time that’s most convenient for them. So, sync all of your calendars so your availability is always up-to-date and convenient for you too.
Take control of your schedule
Optimize your day for how you want to work. Keep room in your day for breaks and breathers by setting a maximum number of appointments. You can even block off entire days to clean your lenses, prepare photo galleries and edit, edit, edit.
Add buffer time between appointments
Always rushing from an in-studio headshot session to engagement shoots? And charging camera batteries on the go? Get the 15 or 30 minutes you need to grab some food, check your gear and make it on time to your next session by adding automatic buffer times between bookings.
Make your booking page yours
You know the power of personal and business branding. Easily add your business logo and your unique colors and words to your customizable YouCanBookMe booking page — so that it looks and feels like an extension of your photography brand.
Offer all your session types
Whatever photography services you offer—engagement, wedding, family, editorial, passport, or commercial—offer it all on your customizable booking page. Let your clients choose the style and length of session they want. It’s easy and stress free.
Drive bookings from all your social channels
With a personalized booking link, you’ll make it simple for clients to book directly from your website and your Facebook and Instagram pages. Plus, you can easily add tracking across your most important social platforms to get a better sense of what channels work.
Say goodbye to no-shows
Set up personalized and automated email or SMS notifications to keep clients in the loop of where they need to be and when.
If you’re a wedding photographer, you could even personalize pre-session reminders with a look book, or if you take passport photos, you could send clients a checklist for how to best prepare.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I offer a wide range of photography services. Can I customize my page to let clients book the type of service they’d like?
100% you can. YouCanBookMe is a booking platform for photographers, so whether you offer headshots, wedding photos, editorial photography or commercial sessions, you can customize your booking page so clients will be able to choose exactly what they want (at a time that works for both your schedules). You’re even able to customize the links you share, so clients will be able to book what they need.
Can clients book multiple services at once?
You bet. Your clients will be able to choose multiple services when they book—as long as they’ll be happening during the same session. The length and price of all the services will be automatically added together in YouCanBookMe. If your clients want to book sessions over the span of several days, they’ll need to book those separately.
Can I put clients on a waitlist in case openings pop up from last-minute cancellations?
There’s no waitlist functionality in YouCanBookMe photography booking software, but here’s what you can do: add a link to a web form or a Google Doc on your customizable booking page. Then, you can ask your clients who want to be added to a waiting list to add their names. If a last-minute cancellation happens, you can grab a name from your list to fill the spot.
Here's what the could look like:
Can I send SMS reminders on the free version of YouCanBookMe?
Yes, SMS reminders as a function are a part of the free version of YouCanBookMe. In order to send the reminders, you’ll need to purchase credits. The exact cost will vary depending on your location and your cell phone carrier. Learn more about SMS notifications and how they work.
