Streamline Your Shoot Booking & Final Gallery Billing
- Send an initial 'Quotation' PDF to confirm package pricing, shoot date, and usage license scope.
- Switch to 'Invoice' mode to collect your 50% non-refundable booking retainer.
- Before releasing high-res download galleries, enter the paid retainer in 'Deposit / Paid Deducted' to send a crystal-clear final Balance Due invoice.
- Unlock Pro ($9 one-time) to add your photography wordmark logo and a scannable Venmo Business / Stripe / PayPal QR code right on the PDF.
Don't Forget Usage Rights on Commercial Shoots
- Leaving licensing undefined: Always note whether the invoice grants personal print rights, non-exclusive editorial/social rights, or paid ad buyout usage.
- Forgetting local state sales tax rules on tangible prints/packages: Customize the Tax Label and exact percentage (e.g. 8.25%) in one click.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I show a 50% booking retainer already paid and only bill the remaining half?
Yes! Enter the full package items so the client sees the complete shoot breakdown, then type the paid retainer into 'Deposit / Paid Deducted' to highlight the exact remaining Balance Due.
Can I customize sales tax to decimal rates like 8.25% or 8.875%?
Yes — the Tax Rate field supports any exact decimal percentage and custom label (e.g., 'NY Sales Tax', 'GST', 'HST').
Can I save wedding and corporate photography packages to reuse later?
Yes! Invoice Studio Pro's Item Catalog lets you save your standard shoot packages locally and insert them into new client invoices in one click.
