Why not just use…
- Honeybook
- Broader CRM for contracts, payments, and workflows. Great if you need it; heavier than quote-only workflows for many solo photographers.
- Notion templates
- No math, no branded PDF, no client view. Quotably does all three.
“Cut my inquiry-to-quote time from 2 days to 10 minutes. Being first with a clean PDF made it much easier to win warm leads.”

Frequently asked
How much should a wedding photographer charge per hour?
US 2026 average: $300–$500/hr solo, $450–$700/hr with a second shooter. Coastal cities run roughly 30% higher.
Do I charge for travel time or just mileage?
Both. Standard: free within 30 miles, then $0.85/mile plus a $50 dispatch fee. Overnight = lodging plus a per diem.
Should I bundle the engagement session?
No. Itemize and offer it opt-in. Clients who see it as a clear choice are more likely to add it without dragging down your base package margin.
How do I price second-shooter coverage?
$80–$120/hr on top of your solo rate. Do not flat-fee it — hours scale.
Albums: bundle or upsell?
Upsell. Bundling tanks your margin on price-shoppers who do not want one.
Honeybook vs Quotably for a solo wedding photographer?
HoneyBook is a broader CRM with contracts, payments, scheduling, and automation. Quotably Pro is $19/mo and stays focused on fast branded quotes when you already have a contract and payment flow.
Do I show prices on my website?
Yes for a starting-at price. Full breakdown stays behind your inquiry form so you can quote tailored.
Sales tax on photography services?
Varies by state and delivery format. Some states tax photography when prints, albums, USBs, or digital deliverables are included; others treat digital-only delivery differently. Confirm with your state revenue department or CPA before collecting tax.
