# A portfolio that books shoots from your bio

> A link in bio for photographers: galleries by type of shoot, a booking calendar, prints with prices and a QR code for your cards, on your own domain.

Clients find you on Instagram and want two things: to see more of your work and to check your dates. Give them both without a full website to maintain.

## Galleries by kind of shoot

Add each kind of work as a project: Weddings, Portraits, Brand shoots, Film. Each one gets a [project page](https://makerhandle.com/features/project-pages) with a photo gallery, a short description and a "Book this" link, and the cover photo shows on your main page. A behind-the-scenes video can go on the same page.

Pick a template that lets photos lead. Showcase and Bento give covers the most room; see the [template gallery](https://makerhandle.com/templates).

## Booking and inquiries

Mini sessions and consults book themselves with [Book a time](https://makerhandle.com/features/booking): Calendly, Cal.com, Acuity, Square Appointments and others, as a button or the calendar right on your page. For weddings and bigger jobs, a pricing guide PDF and an inquiry button work better: upload the guide with [Open to work and resume](https://makerhandle.com/features/open-to-work), and use the [contact form](https://makerhandle.com/features/contact-form) on Pro.

Running a mini session weekend? A [scheduled link](https://makerhandle.com/features/scheduled-links) opens booking at the time you announce and closes it when the dates are gone.

## Prints and presets

Prints, presets and zines go in the [product grid](https://makerhandle.com/features/products) with photos and prices (4 products on Free, 12 on Pro), from Shopify, Gumroad, Lemon Squeezy or added by hand. Buyers check out on your store.

Put the QR code from the Share sheet on your business cards and print packaging. Scans show in your [analytics](https://makerhandle.com/features/analytics) as "QR code".

Free: 5 projects, 50 links, three templates, 100 email subscribers and 7 days of stats, with a small "Built w/ makerhandle" badge. **Pro is $20 a year**: all nine templates, unlimited projects and subscribers, a year of stats, the [contact form](https://makerhandle.com/features/contact-form), your own domain and no badge.

## Questions

### Can I show galleries?

Yes. Each project page has a photo gallery, and its cover shows on your main page.

### Can clients book shoots?

Yes, through Calendly, Cal.com, Acuity, Square and other booking pages, as a button or a calendar.

### Can I sell prints?

You can show prints with prices. Buyers check out on Shopify, Gumroad or wherever you sell.

### Is it a replacement for a photography website?

For many photographers, yes, especially on Pro with your own domain for $20 a year. It is lighter than a full site and needs no upkeep.
