Honeyfell features

From first inquiry to final gallery.

Everything Honeyfell does today, grouped the way the work actually happens — the website and the inquiries it collects, the booking and the paperwork, the gallery they open on the sofa, the print they order from inside it, and the desk the whole thing sits on.

Free plan, not a trial · no card · everything on this page is built and running today

How the pieces meet

One client, carried the whole way.

Most studios run five tools that each know a different quarter of the same person. Here, an inquiry becomes a booking, the booking carries the agreement and the money, and the gallery hangs off the same record a year later when it is time to book again.

  1. WebsiteYour site, on your own domain, with a contact form on it.
  2. InquiryA form submission lands as a booking at the inquiry stage and rings your phone. Nothing to copy anywhere.
  3. BookingYou put the date down. The agreement, the questionnaire and the retainer all hang off that one record.
  4. Session pageOne permanent link for the client: what they have signed, what they have answered, what is still owed.
  5. GalleryYou attach the gallery to the booking, and it appears on the page they already have.
  6. Print saleThey order from inside the photographs. A pro lab prints and ships it.

Where you still press a button, plainly: you decide the shoot date, you send the agreement, and you attach the gallery to its booking. Honeyfell does not invent a client’s date or publish their photographs on a timer — the handoffs between steps are yours. What it removes is the retyping between five separate tools.

Build your presence

Create a home for your photography, and a clear way to reach you.

A website is not a separate subscription here. It is the same product your galleries live in, published to your own address, with the inquiry form wired to the booking board rather than to your inbox.

The editor, with the real page beside itEvery change lands in the preview as you make it. Publish when it looks right.
Website builder

Build the page out of sections — a hero, a portfolio, an about, a contact form — and watch the real page change beside you as you type. Publish when it looks right.

Eighty-one section layouts

One card per layout rather than per section type, so you pick what you can see. Switching a section from one arrangement to another keeps the words you already wrote.

Five starting templates

Pick one and swap in your own photographs. The prices, client names and press mentions come to you empty on purpose — a template should never publish a claim under your name that is not yours.

Your colors, your type

Ten palettes, six typeface pairings and three overall Looks, each checked for contrast before it ships. Your studio’s own colors carry through the site, the galleries and the emails.

Some palettes and textures are Pro and Studio
Your own domain

Point your domain at Honeyfell and the site answers on it — both the plain address and the www one, which is the form most of your old links already use.

Pro and Studio
Landing pages

A page with its own address that stays out of your menu — the front door for one offer, one season, or one set of mini sessions.

One on Free, ten on Pro and Studio
Inquiry form that files itself

A contact form on your site is spam-screened and arrives as a booking at the inquiry stage, with your phone buzzing. It is a record from the first message, not an email you have to copy out of.

Search controls, stated plainly

A title and description per page, a sitemap rebuilt on every publish, canonical tags, structured data about your business, and a robots file that lets Google in. Nobody can promise you a ranking — these are the technical signals a platform can actually keep.

Move a site you already rank with

Honeyfell reads every URL your current site has, you say where each one should land, and the old addresses answer with a real permanent redirect on your own domain. It refuses to launch a map with loops, chains or a redirect pointing at a page that does not exist yet, and re-checks every mapping daily after launch.

How the move works
Help finding the words

Draft or rewrite the copy on a section from the facts you type in, then edit it like anything else — nothing publishes itself. It will not write a testimonial, a price, a package inclusion or a press mention, because those are claims only you can make.

Studio
Photo descriptions

Draft a plain one-line description for each photograph on your site — the line Google reads and a blind visitor hears.

Studio
Get booked

A straight path from “are you free?” to a signed, paid session.

Publish the days you actually want to fill and let clients take them. The agreement, the questions and the money all hang off the same booking record, and the client gets one link that holds the lot.

The Open dates screen: a published Friday with three of four times booked, and below it the booking link and the one-line embed code, each with a Copy button
Publish a day, hand out one line of codeYour dates stay in Honeyfell. Change a time here and the page on your website updates itself.
Open dates

Publish the days you are free and clients pick from the times you opened — never your whole calendar, and nothing to sync. They can ask first and wait for your yes, pay a deposit, or simply book it.

Two published dates at a time on Free, unlimited on Pro and Studio
On the website you already have

One line of code drops the same booking widget into a site hosted anywhere, wearing that site’s own typeface. Or it is a section on your Honeyfell site, or just a link you text.

Mini sessions

Sell a day of minis: packages with prices, a waitlist when it fills, premium slots for the good light, and a hold that releases the time again if the payment never arrives.

Booking add-ons

Offer the extras at the moment they are booking — a second outfit, an extra print, a longer slot. Priced as a simple yes or per unit with a cap you set.

On mini sessions
Contracts, signed in-app

Send an agreement under your studio’s name and they sign it on their phone, initialling the clauses you marked. The signed PDF is sealed and stored for you, with every step time-stamped and the text hashed.

Three a month on Free, unlimited on Pro and Studio
Questionnaires

Ask what you need before the day — names, addresses, who is difficult to seat — and the answers land on the booking rather than in a thread.

One on Free, ten on Pro and Studio
The wedding-day timeline

Build the plan for the day in the couple’s own document, seeded from what they already answered. They read it on their phone; vendors get their own link without seeing anything else.

Two sends a month on Free, unlimited on Pro and Studio
One session page per client

A single permanent link that holds what they have signed, what they have answered, the date and place, the plan for the day, their gallery when it lands, and what is still owed. Re-sending re-arms the same link, so a bookmarked page keeps working.

Invoices and payments

Invoice from the same record and they pay by card. Every payment gets its own permanent page in your brand, itemised, that works until it is paid.

Needs your Stripe account connected
Deposits and payment schedules

Take part of the fee now and the rest later. A retainer is a payment against one price rather than a separately-priced product, so tax is worked out once, on the session — a flat $100 deposit stays $100.

Needs your Stripe account connected
On the calendar you already use

Subscribe from Apple Calendar, Google Calendar or anything that reads a feed, and your booked sessions appear there with the time and the location. It publishes out of Honeyfell; it does not read your calendar back.

Choosing how bookings arrive: they ask and you confirm, they book and pay, or they just book it — the middle option marked as needing Stripe

A $100 deposit really is $100The deposit is a payment against the session price, not a product with a price of its own, so tax lands once and the number you advertise is the number they are charged.

The day, in the couple’s own documentYou edit the page they will read. The grey text is a suggestion for you and never goes to them.

Where a human is still in the loop, plainly: a client can ask for a different day, but only you can move one. Honeyfell records the request and rings your phone; the date changes when you accept it. That is deliberate, and it is enforced in the database rather than by hiding a button.

Deliver the experience

The part your client actually judges you on.

One link, no account, no password reset, no zip file waiting on a laptop they will get to next weekend. It opens to a cover the size of their screen with your name above it — and the whole set goes into their camera roll without them asking you how.

Save the whole gallery on a phone

In the free Honeyfell iPhone app, the set writes straight into the camera roll — one permission, one tap, no share sheet and no new tab. In a phone browser the same button hands the whole set to the system share sheet, which saves sharing-size copies.

Print-quality originals on Pro and Studio; the browser’s one-tap flow saves web-size copies on every plan
And on a computer

A desktop browser gets the gallery as a zip in the quality you allow, split into parts when it is large, instead of being steered towards a phone. Any single photograph saves at full resolution from any device.

Full-resolution downloads on Pro and Studio
Thirteen cover styles

Classic split, full bleed, framed, minimal, arch, cinematic, color wash, keepsake print, triptych, contact sheet and three more. A style that wants six photographs will fall back rather than show you the same face twice.

Four on Free, all thirteen on Pro and Studio
Sneak peeks

Send a handful the same night as a peek inside the gallery they will get later — the same link, not a second one to keep track of.

Chapters

Group a wedding into getting ready, ceremony and reception, so a day reads as a day. Galleries you have already sent keep rendering exactly as your clients saw them, whatever happens to your plan.

Authoring on Pro and Studio
The gallery wears your brand

Your colors and your studio name carry through the cover, the grid and the emails. Paid plans add eight curated palettes you can set per gallery when a session wants its own mood.

Curated palettes on Pro and Studio
Favorites and selections

Clients heart the ones they love and name a set — the album, the ones for their parents — and you see it without a spreadsheet going back and forth.

Who gets in

Keep a gallery as a draft until you are ready, then share it as a link only they have or put a passphrase on it. Ordering can carry a second passphrase of its own.

Slideshow

A watchable version of the gallery, composed from the gallery itself rather than assembled by hand. It is silent on purpose — no licensed music, so nothing to clear and nothing to take down.

Export straight out of Lightroom Classic

A plugin that writes the same three files the app does and uploads them direct from your export. Run on macOS and Windows with real sessions, not assumed to work. Client favorites pull back into a collection set.

How the plugin works
Bring your back catalog

Drag one folder of past sessions across — one subfolder per delivered gallery — and every gallery is named, dated, matched to a client and sized against your storage before anything uploads.

And take it all back out

Export your galleries to your own disk whenever you like, gallery by gallery, resumable if you close the tab. It finishes by telling you exactly which photographs had no original left on file, rather than saying “done” over a gap.

The honest shape of the one-tap save: the app writes to the camera roll directly, which is why it can do a whole gallery of print-quality originals in one go. The browser route goes through the phone’s own share sheet, and that has to hold every file in memory at once — so it saves sharing-size copies. Both put the set in their camera roll without a zip file. Neither needs an account.

Earn more

The second sale, at the moment they still feel it.

A print store inside every gallery on every plan, and three campaigns that run into the window where a client actually wants prints — the week they first see the photographs, not the month you get round to emailing.

A store in every gallery

Prints, canvas, fine art, metal and framed pieces, chosen from inside the photographs rather than in a separate shop. They see the piece at true size against a wall before they decide.

Your prices, your sheet

You set every price on your own price sheet. Shipping is built into your prices, so it is free for your client and there is no surprise at checkout.

The lab prints and ships it

Connect your own free Prodigi account in your store settings — you do it yourself, in a couple of minutes — and a paid order goes to the lab by itself after a hold window you control, so you can catch a wrong crop before anything prints. Your key, your card, your lab bill: Honeyfell never buys a print, and you keep the margin.

One lab today; needs your own lab account
Or place it yourself

Every paid order also arrives as a complete work order — ship-to, line items with lab codes, the full-resolution downloads and the margin maths — so you can use a lab we do not support and still have the paperwork.

What Honeyfell takes

Fifteen per cent of a print sale on the free plan, which pays for the storage underneath it. Nothing at all on Pro and Studio — every cent of the sale is yours.

Three sales campaigns

An early-bird offer armed the moment you publish a gallery, a nudge when a client gets as far as the cart and stops, and the gallery resurfacing a year to the day after the shoot. Written once, sent once, never sent twice.

Early bird on every plan; all three, with your own discount and wording, on Pro and Studio
A discount that cannot lose you money

Whatever you set, Honeyfell floors it — no print can be sold for less than the lab charges to make it. Unsubscribe handling and the postal footer the law asks for are built into every campaign email.

Gift cards

A page where somebody else can buy a session for your client, with the code delivered to them and redeemable against your work.

Pro and Studio
Orders and what they earned

Every order, where it is, what it made you, and a blocked one saying plainly what is missing rather than failing quietly.

Run your studio

The desk the rest of it sits on.

One board from the first message to the print that shipped, one record per client that outlives any single session, and a phone that tells you when something needs you.

The booking board

Inquiry, booked, shot, delivered — every session on one board, with a dot per row for the agreement, the questions and the money so you can see what is missing without opening anything.

Three active bookings on Free, ten on Pro, unlimited on Studio
One record per client

Their whole history in one place, pulled together from the bookings and galleries you already have rather than a separate address book you have to keep up. A family that books under two names and three spellings still reads as one household.

Insights

Twelve months of revenue, bookings and print sales in one place, so you can see what the year actually did.

What each campaign earned is Studio
The emails that go out for you

Booking confirmations, invoice reminders, the campaign sends and the daily re-check on a migrated site. Each one is a specific thing Honeyfell does, under your studio’s name, with your address in the reply.

Client replies land here

When a client replies to an email you sent from Honeyfell, the reply arrives in your inbox in the app instead of being lost in a personal mailbox.

Pro and Studio
Notifications you choose

A bell row, an email, and a push to your phone — per event, so a new inquiry can reach you differently from a print order.

The iPhone app

The same studio in your pocket, free on the App Store. Everything works in any browser too; the app is what adds the direct camera-roll save and push notifications.

iOS app; the web app works on any device
Your name on all of it

Your colors, your logo, your domain, your reply-to. Honeyfell stays out of the frame — your clients never need to learn we exist.

Guides, and a person

Ten walkthroughs that end on the real button, plus a checklist of the five things a new studio should set up. Ask-anything help chat is on the paid plans; the guides, the search and writing to an actual person are free on every plan.

What this is not: there is no automation builder here — no canvas of triggers and branches to design. What runs on its own is a short, named list: the confirmations, the invoice reminders, the three campaigns, the lab hold window and the daily migration check. If it is not on that list, you press the button.

Worth knowing

Three things that are actually different here.

Not a longer list than everyone else’s. Three specific decisions, each of which you can check.

The whole gallery, in their camera roll

Saving photographs on an iPhone usually means a new tab and a long-press on each one — the complaint you will find in five-star reviews of every big gallery platform. In the free Honeyfell app it is one permission and one tap for the whole set, print-quality on the paid plans.

Signatures are not rented back to you

Honeyfell writes the signed PDF itself — seals it, hashes it, stores it — so a contract costs nothing to send. That is why every paid plan gets all of them instead of five a month, and why it goes out under your studio’s name rather than a vendor’s.

Scheduling that publishes rather than subtracts

Nothing is bookable unless you deliberately opened it. There is no calendar to connect and nothing to keep in sync, because Honeyfell never infers that you are free — and the widget drops into whatever website you already have.

Watch it work

Short walkthroughs, recorded on the real thing.

Screen recordings of the actual app — not slides, and not a voice talking over a mockup. They are new, and there will be more of them; here is what is up so far.

Fair questions

Before you decide.

Can I use Honeyfell for my website and my client galleries?

Yes, and you do not have to do both. Most photographers start with galleries alone and leave their website exactly where it is — every gallery links back to your own site from its footer, so your site keeps the traffic. The builder is sitting there for the day you want it.

Can clients book and pay online?

Yes. You publish the days you want to fill, and a client picks a time from your own page, from a widget on the website you already have, or from a link you text them. Whether they can book instantly, have to ask first, or have to pay a deposit is your choice per set of dates. Taking money needs your Stripe account connected, which is free to do and takes a few minutes.

Can I connect my own domain?

Yes, on Pro and Studio. Both the plain address and the www version are set up together, because the www form is what most of your existing links and business cards already use.

Can clients download a whole gallery on their phone?

Yes. In the free Honeyfell iPhone app the whole set writes straight into the camera roll in one tap — print-quality originals on the paid plans. In a phone browser the same button hands the set to the phone’s own share sheet, which saves sharing-size copies on every plan. On a computer it comes down as a zip in the quality you allow. Any single photograph saves at full resolution from any device.

Can I sell prints through a gallery?

Yes, on every plan including the free one. The store lives inside the gallery, you set every price, and a paid order goes to a professional lab after a hold window you control. Honeyfell takes 15% on the free plan and nothing at all on Pro and Studio.

Which features are included in each plan?

The restrictions worth knowing are marked beside each feature above — contracts, storage, downloads, cover styles, custom domains and the print commission are the ones that differ most. The full comparison, with every number side by side, is on the pricing page.

See every plan, side by side

Is there an Android app?

Not today — the app is iPhone only. Everything else works in any modern browser on any device, including the whole studio side and the client galleries; what the app adds is the direct camera-roll save and push notifications.

What if I want to leave?

You export your galleries to your own disk, gallery by gallery, and it tells you honestly which photographs had no original left on file rather than reporting success over a gap. Your client list exports to CSV and your domain is yours to point wherever you like. Nothing is held back to make leaving painful.
