Bookkeeping Software for Photographers

You didn't become a photographer to do bookkeeping. AI handles the financial admin — tracking session fees, equipment costs, print sales, and client invoices — while you edit and shoot.

Challenges We Solve

Problem

Income comes from everywhere — session fees, print sales, albums, digital downloads, workshops, licensing — each with different pricing and timing

Solution

Every income stream tracked in one place. AI categorizes revenue by type — sessions, prints, products, workshops. See which revenue streams actually make you money.

Problem

Equipment is your #1 expense — camera bodies, lenses, lighting, memory cards, insurance — and tracking what's a business deduction vs personal is confusing

Solution

AI auto-categorizes equipment purchases, insurance, studio rent, and software subscriptions. Every expense tagged and ready for tax deductions. Receipt photos attached as documentation.

Problem

Clients pay in installments — deposit, balance, print orders — and tracking who's paid what across 20 active weddings is chaos

Solution

AI invoice generator with payment tracking. Send deposit invoices, balance invoices, and print order invoices. Each invoice tracks payment status automatically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I track client payment schedules for wedding packages?

Yes. Create separate invoices for deposits, balance payments, and add-ons (prints, albums). Each invoice tracks its own payment status. The client dashboard shows total paid, outstanding, and payment history per client.

Can I track expenses per wedding or per client session?

Yes. Tag expenses (second shooter fees, travel, album costs, prints) with the client name or event. Your dashboard shows total revenue and total costs per wedding — so you know exactly how profitable each booking was.

How do I handle equipment depreciation for taxes?

Tally Assistant tracks equipment purchases with date, amount, and category. At year-end, export all equipment expenses as CSV for your accountant. They'll handle depreciation calculations (Section 179, bonus depreciation, or multi-year schedules depending on your jurisdiction). The key is having every purchase documented with the receipt attached.

Can I invoice clients for prints and albums separately from the session fee?

Yes. Create separate invoices for the session deposit, balance payment, and any add-on orders (prints, albums, digital files). Each invoice tracks its own payment status. The client dashboard shows everything in one place — what's been paid, what's outstanding, and order details.
