Wedding season, in order.

SnapBiz is web-based studio management software for wedding photographers and videographers. It handles inquiries, quotes, contracts with online signature, team calendar and availability, albums, payments and statistics, with an iPhone app for the wedding day.

Photography studios and freelancers who mostly shoot weddings, alone or with a team of photographers, videographers and second shooters.

During the beta it's free, with every feature, until 30 September 2027. After that you choose a monthly or yearly plan: prices will be on the Pricing page before the beta ends. Beta testers keep the launch price for 12 months.

The beta ends on 30 September 2027, but nobody is locked out mid-season: you keep working with every feature until 31 October. From 1 November, if you haven't chosen a plan, the account stays read-only: you see all your data and can download payments and calendar. Nothing is charged unless you choose a plan.

Yes. Couples' personal data is encrypted in the database, studio sign-in uses two-step verification and each role only sees what it needs.

It's a simple electronic signature. For every signature SnapBiz keeps the date and time, certified by an outside authority with a timestamp (RFC 3161) when that service answers, the signer's IP address and browser, and a fingerprint of the document that shows any later change. If the signature is ever disputed, a court weighs this evidence freely. It is not a qualified digital signature, which is needed only where the law requires one.

There's an iPhone app for photographers and operators, in testing and not yet on the App Store. On Android and desktop SnapBiz runs in the browser.

No: SnapBiz keeps the record of payments, and invoices are issued with your own invoicing software. VAT can be removed on each payment and withholding is entered only when it applies; there is no single setting that does it for every payment.

SnapBiz is in Italian and English, and the couple portal follows the language of the couple's browser. You write the text of quotes and contracts yourself, so you can prepare an English template; there is no language to pick per wedding, and the portal's privacy notice is in Italian only.

SnapBiz is built for weddings. Inquiries for christenings, corporate shoots or newborns are kept with your inquiries, but only weddings become records with a team, contracts, albums and payments.

On Amazon Web Services in Milan: the data stays in Italy (region eu-south-1). That covers the database, uploaded files and outgoing email. The couples' personal data is also encrypted in the database.

We are building import from Excel files: it's coming soon. Meanwhile you can upload contracts as PDF and let the AI read couple, date and venue. Export is already there: the payment ledger as CSV (opens in Excel), the calendar as ICS (Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook) and your profile data as JSON, a format other software can read.

If SnapBiz ever had to close, we would announce it 6 months in advance and, before closing, give you a complete export of all your data.

It depends on who they are. Internal staff take a seat on the studio's plan; external collaborators count towards the number of externals the plan allows. A freelancer who also works for other studios has a plan of their own and sees, in one calendar, the confirmed weddings of every studio that hires them. During the beta access is free.

Yes, one way: your SnapBiz weddings appear in your Google Calendar and stay up to date. Events created directly in Google don't come back into SnapBiz.
