The best inquiry is the one that can become a booking.
A client can discover you at 11:47 PM, fall in love with the work, and be ready to move. Make them wait for three emails and a screenshot of your calendar and that momentum turns into admin—or into your competitor’s booking link. Vignette gives that excitement somewhere useful to go.

VIGNETTE MAKES SENSE FOR
Photographers selling repeatable packages and seasonal mini sessions
Studios that want booking to continue into contracts, payments, and delivery
Location photographers who plan around natural light
LOOK CLOSELY IF YOU NEED
Businesses that only need a general meeting scheduler
Studios that require native SMS booking campaigns or complex marketing automation today
What Vignette does not pretend
Native SMS notifications are planned and are not currently available.
External calendar sync is provided through updating private subscriptions; Vignette remains the source of the booking details.
Storefront publishing is for photography packages and mini sessions, not a general-purpose website builder.
Yes. You can create a mini-session event with multiple time slots, publish it to your storefront, and let separate clients reserve available slots.
Can clients book without emailing me first?
Yes. Published packages and live availability give clients a self-service path to start a booking from your public Vignette storefront.
Does booking connect to contracts and payments?
Yes. Vignette is designed so a booking can carry its client, contract, payment plan, team, gallery, location, and activity in one connected workflow.
Can I plan sessions around golden hour?
Yes. Vignette provides sunrise, sunset, and morning and evening golden-hour guidance based on the verified studio location.
How much does Vignette cost?
While the limited Unlimited offer lasts, Vignette is $35 per month with unlimited cloud storage after a 30-day free trial. The standard plans are Capture at $35 per month with 250 GB cloud storage and Focus at $50 per month with 1 TB cloud storage. Every plan includes every feature.
Do I need a credit card to start the free trial?
No. The 30-day free trial includes every feature and does not require a credit card to start.
Can I bring my existing clients with me?
Yes. Import contacts from a CSV or JSON file. Vignette previews the import and flags likely duplicates before anything is created.
07 · ALL CONNECTED
It all works together.
Every feature shares the same client, booking, and money—so nothing gets copied twice. Your subscription includes all of it.
