Clients

A photography CRM with every booking, invoice and gallery on one page.

Every booking, invoice, gallery and email for a client, in order, on one page. The client record is the centre of Tellisto, and everything else in the app is attached to it.

Only you see this page. Everything your clients see carries your brand.

What's inside

Live now, and included on every plan.

  • The full timeline on one page: bookings, invoices, galleries and every email that went out.
  • Several contacts per client, each with a role, such as the couple, the planner or the mother of the bride. One is marked primary so you always know who to call. One company, many contacts, every round on one timeline
  • Individual and business clients, with invoices to match. A business client's invoice includes the recipient details a proper B2B tax invoice needs.
  • Simple filing into active, past and archived. Use it to tidy your list if you want to. Nothing depends on it.
  • Private notes only you can see, and tags to sort your list however you like.
  • Tellisto records when each client last booked, from their bookings. Clients who haven't booked in a while appear in a rebook list without you labelling anything.
  • You can take your list with you. Download your clients, leads and bookings as a spreadsheet any time from settings.

How it runs your week

What it changes about an ordinary week.

The phone rings, and you already know who it is

Search their name and everything is in front of you before they finish their first sentence: what they booked, what they paid, what was delivered and what was said. You sound like a studio with a back office, because now you have one.

Past clients become future clients

The couple you shot this year are the people most likely to book an anniversary shoot, a maternity session or family portraits. Tellisto tracks when each client last booked, so the ones who've gone quiet appear in a rebook list. They don't get lost in a list of four hundred names. You still choose who to email, which is the part you'd never want automated anyway. When they say yes, the new booking goes on the same record, with their whole history already there.

Everything attaches to the client

A gallery isn't a file in a folder somewhere. It's attached to the client it belongs to, next to their invoices and emails. When a client comes back in two years, everything from last time is still there.

Works with

Each part connects to the next.

Every part of Tellisto passes the job on to the next, from enquiry to delivery, so you never type the same details twice.

Frequently asked questions

Questions photographers ask

Can I bring my existing client list across?

Yes. Add clients as you go, or tell us what you run today and we'll help you move your list across. You don't need to move everything before you start. One client and one shoot is enough.

What's the difference between active, past and archived?

They're filing labels, nothing more. Active is your current clients. Past means the work is done but you expect to work with them again. Archived hides them from view. Nothing automatic depends on the labels. The rebook list is built from actual booking dates whether you use the labels or not, and nothing is deleted either way.

What happens when a past client comes back?

You add the new booking (or the new enquiry) to the same client record. There's no duplicate client and no re-entering details. Their galleries, invoices and history are already there, and their last-booked date updates on its own.

Can one client have several people on it?

Yes. Add as many contacts as the job really has, each with a role and their own details, and mark one as primary. Wedding enquiries rarely involve just one person.

Do my clients ever see Tellisto?

Only you see the client record. Everything a client sees (the gallery, the invoice, the emails) carries your studio's name and branding. Tellisto's name appears in exactly two places. One is the small privacy link in the gallery footer. The other is the Vault checkout, where Tellisto is the seller on the client's card statement.

Keep every client's history in one record.

Start free and add your next enquiry. Each client's history builds up from there, and we'll help you bring your existing clients across.
