Our R&D team has been tirelessly developing new tools for the last year and one of those we're excited to talk about is the new PhotoBiz Scheduler. The PhotoBiz Scheduler is a fully integrated appointment tool built right into your PhotoBiz account.
Soon all your clients will be able to book you for any type of occasion. It's perfect for in-person consultations and studio shoots, wedding and engagement events, and any other portrait sessions. You can see all your bookings on your dashboard.
You'll have more tools available in one place and you get this all for free!

What About Mini-Sessions?

PhotoBiz Growth Hub - Hi John,
The scheduler is a single calendar designed for a single photographer. However, it’s flexible enough that the photographer can set up individual booking services for each staff member and a page to feature all of them so that the client can select who they want to book with. Support can help set this up when the scheduler is released.

PhotoBiz Growth Hub - HiMark, There is no ability to add travel fees by zip code directly in the booking service. However, you can use the scheduler to get their booking fee and then use invoices to get the totals from the entire service and include the travel fees there.
