A product photography scheduler covers the booking page, the questions asked before booking, and the confirmation message that follows the appointment.
A product line is ready for camera, but the shoot only stays consistent if the prep stays consistent too. The product photography scheduler gives clients one place to pick a time, answer the intake questions that affect coverage, and leave with a clear next step, so the day doesn’t drift into missed angles, uneven shadows, or a file-naming tangle that shows up when the upload starts.
The page opens with Arrange a SKU intake session with Avery McLeod, then moves straight into the Calendar where the client chooses a slot. Before the booking completes, Tell us about the job collects the details that change how the work gets planned: name and email, estimated SKU count, primary deliverables, sample availability for testing, and any reference images or notes. The confirmation screen follows with the reminder to send a SKU list or references before the meeting, so the intake call stays about decisions, not chasing basics.
- Arrange a SKU intake session Names the intake session and sets expectations around shot list, deliverables, file naming, and next dates.
- Calendar Shows available times so the client can book the intake session without back-and-forth.
- Tell us about the job Collects the six pre-booking questions, including SKU count, deliverables, sample availability, and reference images or notes.
- Confirmation Closes the booking and repeats what needs to arrive before the meeting, like a SKU list or references.
The template needs a connected calendar so the times shown are real, plus your own meeting lengths and prices, and the meeting location set on the page for in-person bookings. The layout uses hardware blue with yellow‑olive prompts under Space Grotesk headings and Roboto body text, so the instructions read like production checkpoints instead of marketing copy.
We went from spending hours on every proposal to creating fully customized ones in under 5 minutes. That's not an exaggeration - we timed it.
