Pixieset vs ShootProof in 2026: Which Is Better?

Two photographers deliver the same June wedding. One sends a Pixieset gallery, one sends ShootProof. Both couples order about $400 of prints, both galleries look professional, and in October the photographers compare notes.

The Pixieset shooter, still on the free plan, has handed over 15% of every print order.

The ShootProof shooter, also on the free plan, has handed over nothing, but ran out of room after one wedding and could not upload the highlight film at all.

That is Pixieset vs ShootProof in one story: the two platforms make opposite bets on commission, storage and video, and which bet suits you depends on what you sell and what you deliver.

Pixieset puts a polished gallery, a mobile app and an optional studio suite around a free plan that charges commission.

ShootProof puts contracts, invoices and a commission-free store on every paid plan and splits its upper tiers into photo and video allowances.

A client gallery platform is software that hosts, proofs and delivers the finished photos you hand to a paying client, usually with a print store attached so the gallery can sell as well as deliver.

Pixieset and ShootProof are two of the most common answers to that job.

Framekit is an AI website builder with client galleries, video review, Slides and a digital-download store in one account, and it appears below as a clearly labelled third option for one kind of photographer, not as a contender in the Pixieset vs ShootProof head-to-head.

Full disclosure: we make Framekit, so we have a stake in the third option, and we have kept it to one labelled section. Every Pixieset and ShootProof price, storage tier, video allowance and commission rule below was re-verified on 12 October 2026 against Pixieset's pricing page and ShootProof's plans page. This rewrite replaces the July 2026 version, which used ShootProof's older photo-count plans, said ShootProof had no website and said both platforms kept galleries on their own subdomain; all three lines were out of date.

How We Compared Pixieset and ShootProof

This comparison is built from what Pixieset and ShootProof publish about their own plans in October 2026, plus arithmetic on those published numbers for three realistic businesses, so every figure can be traced to a vendor page and rerun with your own volumes.

Read at the source. Pixieset's Client Gallery pricing page, including its plan cards, add-ons and FAQ on commission and custom domains, and its help-centre guidance on file sizes and video.

ShootProof's plans page, including its full feature table, add-ons and archive pricing, plus its proofing and store feature pages. Both vendors' figures were read on 12 October 2026.

Calculated. Storage for three businesses using 8MB per delivered JPEG and films exported at 10 megabits per second. Megabits per second times seconds, divided by eight, gives megabytes, so a 25-minute film is 1,875MB.

Annual prices use each vendor's yearly billing unless a row says monthly, and commission is calculated on store revenue.

Not tested. We did not run a print season through either store, order from their labs, or time uploads. Where a feature is plan-gated in a way the pricing page does not spell out, we say so instead of guessing.

Card processing applies on top of every sale on both platforms and is left out of the tables because it does not change which one is cheaper.

Pixieset vs ShootProof at a Glance

The short version is that both platforms give you unlimited client galleries, branded delivery, watermarks, download controls, favourites and an integrated print store, so the decision turns on commission, storage shape, video, studio tools and the experience your clients see.

In one lineShootProof is the cheaper whole for a print-selling or film-delivering studio that wants its paperwork included, and Pixieset is the more familiar client experience with the broader optional suite, so commission, video and studio tools settle most cases.

Eight Numbers That Separate Pixieset and ShootProof

These eight figures, each read from Pixieset's or ShootProof's pricing pages in October 2026 or calculated from them, decide most Pixieset vs ShootProof choices, and each one points at a specific kind of photographer.

• 15% versus 0%. Commission on the free plan: Pixieset takes 15% of store sales, ShootProof takes nothing. On paid plans both are 0%.
• $640. The yearly print revenue at which Pixieset's 15% equals a year of Basic at $96. Sell more than that on Pixieset Free and you are paying rent on your own prints.
• 30 minutes. The HD video on Pixieset Basic. ShootProof Starter pools 20GB for photos and video, which holds several films.
• 50GB and 150GB. ShootProof's video allowances on Professional and Premium, next to 1,000GB and unlimited photo storage.
• $5 a month. What Pixieset charges for each extra hour of video beyond your plan.
• $8.33. ShootProof Starter's monthly price billed yearly, the cheapest plan in this pair that includes contracts and invoices.
• $2.99 a month. The starting price ShootProof lists for archiving extra photos below Premium, where photo archiving is included.
• 1TB for $24. Pixieset Pro's photo storage on yearly billing, with RAW upload, against 1,000GB plus 50GB of video for $26.67 on ShootProof Professional.

Commission: Where ShootProof's Zero Matters

ShootProof charges 0% commission on every plan, free included, while Pixieset charges 15% on its free plan and 0% from Basic upward, so the commission gap only matters for a photographer who sells prints while staying on Pixieset's free tier.

On a modest print year of $4,800, Pixieset Free keeps $720. Pixieset Basic at $96 a year keeps none of the sales.

ShootProof keeps none of the sales on any plan, but its free plan holds only 3GB of photos and no video, so most working photographers pay for Starter at about $100 a year anyway.

The honest version is not that ShootProof is cheaper than Pixieset. It is that ShootProof is cheaper than Pixieset's free plan, and roughly level with Pixieset's paid plans on commission.

The break-even is short arithmetic. Pixieset Basic costs $96 a year billed yearly, and 15% of $640 is $96, so a photographer selling more than about $640 of prints a year, roughly $53 a month, should leave Pixieset's free plan immediately.

Pixieset's pricing page says the commission applies to store sales on free accounts and does not spell out the base in detail, so check a test order if you plan to sell on the free plan.

Where commission is identical, the store features decide.

Pixieset's integrated storefront offers automatic fulfilment, coupons and gift cards, and email campaigns on paid plans, 100 a month on Basic and 10,000 on Ultimate, with more sold at $10 a month per 5,000.

ShootProof's store sells lab prints, wall art, digital downloads and, on paid plans, videos and slideshows, with your own prices, email marketing and sales reports on every plan.

In one lineShootProof's 0% is a genuine advantage on free accounts and a tie once Pixieset is paid for, so the commission row should push you off Pixieset's free plan rather than off Pixieset.

Storage and Video: Gigabytes, Hours and Split Allowances

The two platforms meter storage on different axes, and that difference decides which one gets expensive for your work: Pixieset counts photos in gigabytes and video in hours, while ShootProof counts both in gigabytes, pooled on its lower plans and split on its upper ones.

Put a hybrid wedding year through both. Twenty-four weddings with a 25-minute film each is 10 hours of footage and about 45GB at 10 Mbps. On ShootProof Professional, 45GB fits inside the 50GB video allowance.

On Pixieset Pro, 2 hours are included, so 8 more hours at $5 a month each adds $40 a month, or $480 a year, if every film stays online all year.

The shape changes at the top of ShootProof's range, which is worth reading before you upgrade. Starter and Standard pool photos and video together, so a stills-heavy year can crowd out films.

Professional and Premium split them into a large photo allowance and a smaller video one, so a film-heavy year can fill the video side while the photo side sits mostly empty.

Pixieset's help centre is direct that it sets no limit on the size of an individual video file and recommends 4K or smaller in MP4. ShootProof lists video up to 4K on every paid plan without a published per-file cap.

Neither number is a problem for normal wedding films; the allowance is what you pay for.

In one linestills-heavy photographers find the two close on storage, while anyone delivering more than two hours of film online at once will find ShootProof's gigabytes cheaper than Pixieset's hours.

Where Pixieset Wins

Pixieset wins on the client experience and the breadth of its optional suite, because its galleries are the ones many couples have already used, its mobile gallery apps and Lightroom workflow are mature, and one vendor can supply your website and studio manager as well.

A gallery clients already know. Pixieset is the default in much of the wedding and portrait market, which is worth something unglamorous: fewer clients emailing to ask where the download button is.

Its galleries support favourites with per-image comments, download sizes from web-ready to high resolution, and activity tracking for who downloaded what.

Mobile apps and Lightroom. Pixieset's Mobile Gallery App turns a gallery into a personalised app on the client's phone, up to 3 on Free and unlimited on paid plans, and Pixieset uploads and syncs from Lightroom.

Pro and Ultimate accept RAW photos, with up to 1,000GB of RAW on Ultimate.

A suite if you want one. Pixieset Website builds your portfolio site and Studio Manager adds invoices, contracts with e-signatures, questionnaires, quotes and booking, and the Pixieset Suite bundles everything at up to 37% off.

A Photo Editor add-on at $12 a month culls and edits RAW files in the same account.

Your own domain on any paid plan. Pixieset's FAQ says you can use your own domain for your website and client galleries on any upgraded account, with a free pixieset.com address on signup.

Cheapest unlimited photo storage. Ultimate holds unlimited photos for $40 a month billed yearly, $10 less than ShootProof Premium, though with 5 hours of video against ShootProof's 150GB.

The gotchathe free plan charges 15% on store sales and leaves out full-resolution download and video upload, video is metered in hours with $5 add-ons, and contracts and invoices are a separate product rather than part of the gallery plan.

Skip it ifyou deliver more than two hours of film online at once, you want contracts and invoices included in your gallery plan, or you plan to sell prints while staying on a free plan.

Verdict: Pixieset is the safer default for a portrait or wedding photographer who values a familiar client experience, a mobile app and an optional all-in-one suite. The Pixieset pricing guide breaks down every plan, and the best Pixieset alternatives covers the wider field.

Where ShootProof Wins

ShootProof wins on money and on film, because it charges 0% commission on every plan, includes contracts and invoices from its cheapest paid plan, measures video in gigabytes rather than hours, and lets you sell videos and slideshows from the same store as prints.

Commission-free from the first sale. ShootProof's plans page lists commission-free sales on every plan, the free one included, along with selling lab prints, products and videos, setting your own prices, email marketing and sales reports.

Its store adds wall art and in-room previews so a client can see a canvas on a wall before ordering.

Paperwork in the gallery plan. Every paid ShootProof plan includes invoicing with customisable tipping and e-sign contracts, and managing multiple brands, with online client booking as a $6.99 a month add-on.

On Pixieset, the same tools sit in Studio Manager, a separate subscription or part of the Suite.

Proofing with labels. ShootProof's proofing lets clients favourite and label photos, videos and slideshows, with custom labels so a couple can mark album picks separately from parent-album picks, and ShootProof can email you when the client has finished.

Pixieset's favourites and comments do a similar job without the label system.

Film without an hour meter. Video up to 4K is included on every paid plan, pooled with photos on Starter and Standard and split out at 50GB on Professional and 150GB on Premium. For a hybrid studio, that is the difference between a flat plan and buying hours.

Archiving and support. Lower plans can archive extra photos from $2.99 a month, Premium includes photo archiving, multiple user access is listed on every plan, and 1-1 phone support is included at every tier.

The gotchathe free plan holds only 3GB of photos and no video, so a hybrid shooter must pay before testing the workflow; the portfolio website is described as simple; custom domains are not listed on the plans page; and the plans page still shows an older photo-count lineup further down, so check which set your account is on.

Skip it ifyour clients expect the gallery app most of them already know, you want a full website and studio suite from the same vendor, or you deliver no prints and no films.

Verdict: ShootProof is the better value for a print-selling or hybrid studio that wants contracts and invoices without a second subscription. ShootProof vs Zenfolio and the best ShootProof alternatives cover its other common rivals.

Studio Tools: Studio Manager Against Built-In Paperwork

ShootProof includes contracts with e-signatures and invoicing with tipping on every paid plan, while Pixieset sells them through Studio Manager or the Pixieset Suite, so the cheaper choice depends on whether you would use those tools and whether you already pay for something else.

ShootProof's approach is simple to price.

From Starter at $8.33 a month billed yearly, the same plan that delivers your galleries also sends contracts and invoices, and the plans page lists a booking landing page, automated emails, a Google Calendar integration and questionnaires as available across plans, with unlimited online client booking for $6.99 a month.

For a photographer who currently pays separately for a contracts tool, ShootProof's gallery plan can replace it.

Pixieset's approach is broader and costs more in total.

Studio Manager covers invoices, contracts, questionnaires, quotes and a booking site, and the Pixieset Suite bundles Client Gallery, Website and Studio Manager at a discount of up to 37% against buying them separately.

A photographer who wants one vendor for gallery, site and studio tools gets more from the Suite than from ShootProof's simple portfolio website.

The deciding question is what you already own.

If your contracts live in HoneyBook, Dubsado or another studio manager you like, ShootProof's built-in tools are a bonus you will not use, and Pixieset Client Gallery alone is the fairer comparison.

If you own nothing, ShootProof's paid plans give you paperwork for the price of a gallery.

Our roundup of studio management tools for photographers compares the standalone options.

Websites and Domains

Both platforms now include a website option, but at different depths: ShootProof includes a simple portfolio website on every plan, while Pixieset sells Pixieset Website as its own product or in the Suite and lets every paid plan put galleries on your own domain.

Pixieset's FAQ says you can use your own domain for your website and client galleries on any upgraded account, which answers the old complaint that Pixieset galleries always sat on a pixieset.com address.

ShootProof's plans page lists a simple portfolio website on every plan, including free, and does not list custom domains, so check that in the account before you plan a domain change around it.

Neither platform is primarily a website builder.

Photographers whose website is how strangers find them often run a dedicated builder for the marketing site and link galleries from it, which our list of the best website builders for photographers covers.

The trade-off is two subscriptions and two places a client might look.

What Happens When: The Mechanics Behind the Plans

The situations that cost a photographer money or an evening rarely appear on a pricing card, so this section walks through seven of them and says what each platform documents, without filling gaps with guesses.

A client on your free plan orders $300 of prints. On Pixieset Free, 15% of the store sale goes to Pixieset. On ShootProof Free, the commission is 0%, though the 3GB, photos-only plan limits how many galleries you can keep online.

The wedding film will not fit. On Pixieset, video counts against your plan's hours, and once the allowance is used you buy extra hours at $5 a month each.

On ShootProof, video counts against gigabytes, pooled on Starter and Standard and capped at 50GB or 150GB on the upper plans; the free plan cannot hold video at all.

You want to sell the film, not just deliver it. ShootProof lists selling videos alongside lab prints and products on every plan, and selling slideshows on paid plans.

Pixieset's help centre says video uploads can be downloaded but cannot be sold through its integrated store.

Storage runs out mid-season. On ShootProof you can archive extra photos from $2.99 a month below Premium, or move up a plan. On Pixieset you move up a plan; Ultimate has unlimited photo storage.

You switch plans. Pixieset's FAQ says you can change plans at any time and the previous plan is prorated against the new one. ShootProof's plans page lists monthly and yearly billing for every tier; check its proration rules in the account.

You are on an older ShootProof plan. ShootProof's plans page still lists its photo-count lineup of 1,500, 5,000, 25,000 and unlimited photos at the same prices as the storage plans.

If you joined before the change, your limits may be counted in photos rather than gigabytes.

A guest asks for a gallery app. Both platforms offer branded mobile gallery apps, unlimited on paid plans, with Pixieset Free allowing 3 and ShootProof Free allowing 5.

A Year at Three Business Sizes

Neither platform is cheaper in the abstract, so these three worked examples price a full year for a portrait side business, a stills wedding studio and a hybrid wedding studio, with Framekit added as a third column for comparison only.

Assumptions: 8MB per delivered JPEG, 25-minute films at 10 Mbps, every gallery online all year, yearly billing. Commission is shown where a free plan would charge it. Framekit has no print store, so its column covers delivery only.

The first row is a near tie between the two, at $96 against $100, and both remove commission.

The second row slightly favours Pixieset, because 1TB costs $24 a month against ShootProof's $26.67, though ShootProof includes contracts and invoices in that price.

The third row is where the metering decides it: Pixieset's hours make a film-heavy year cost more than twice as much as ShootProof's gigabytes.

There is a fair caveat on that third row. If you take films down after 90 days, a studio delivering two films a month needs only about 2.5 hours online at once, so Pixieset Pro plus one extra hour costs $348 a year, close to ShootProof's $320.

The Framekit column is not a like-for-like price, because Framekit cannot take those print orders.

For a studio with $4,800 of print revenue, the true Framekit cost is $180 plus the margin you lose or the time you spend ordering prints by hand, which is why print sellers should choose between Pixieset and ShootProof.

Run this on your own numbers. Multiply last year's print revenue by 0.15 and compare it with a year of Pixieset Basic at $96; if the commission is larger, upgrade or move.

Then total your film minutes kept online at once: above two hours, price ShootProof's gigabytes before Pixieset's hours.

Finally, list the studio tools you pay for separately; if contracts and invoices are among them, ShootProof's paid plans may replace a subscription.

The Third Option: Framekit for Hybrid Shooters Who Sell No Prints

Framekit is the third option for a different photographer from the one Pixieset and ShootProof are built for: someone who delivers films as well as stills, sells no prints, and wants the portfolio website, the film review round, the galleries and a digital store in one account at one price.

It does not win the Pixieset vs ShootProof contest, because it has no print store, no lab, no price sheets, no albums, no mobile app, no contracts or invoices, no RAW support and no unlimited storage.

If prints or studio paperwork are part of your income, choose between the two platforms above.

What it does instead is put every gallery feature on every plan, including the free one: watermarks, a gallery password, a separate download PIN, favourites with named lists and per-photo notes, a Send to photographer button, slideshows, full-resolution downloads, ZIP downloads, email registration and auto expiry with an optional reminder email three days before.

The Activity panel logs favourite and download activity by client email, with a CSV export.

Films sit in the same gallery as the stills, counted in bytes from one pool shared with the website and reviews: 10GB on Free, 50GB on Starter at $7 a month billed yearly, 300GB on Pro at $15 and 2TB on Business at $31, of which 3GB, 15GB, 150GB and 750GB may be video.

Each film can run up to 2 hours, with a per-file cap of 500MB, 1GB, 2GB or 3GB by plan; a 25-minute film at 10 Mbps is about 1.9GB, which fits Pro.

Before delivery, Framekit's video review handles the feedback round: the client comments at the exact frame, draws on the frame and replies without an account, and version 2 joins the stack with version 1's notes intact.

Neither Pixieset nor ShootProof has a timecoded review tool, so their hybrid users usually run that round in Vimeo or Frame.io.

The galleries live at /client/ on your own Framekit website, which the AI builder generates from a description or a reference screenshot, with your own domain from Starter.

The same account makes proposal decks in Slides and sells digital products such as presets at a 5% to 0% fee by plan.

Verdict: Framekit is worth pricing if your income is session fees and digital delivery, you deliver film, and you would otherwise pay for a website, a review tool and a gallery separately; it is the wrong tool for any business built on print sales. The head-to-heads Framekit vs Pixieset and Framekit vs ShootProof go deeper.

Switching Between Pixieset and ShootProof

Moving between Pixieset and ShootProof works best as a forward switch, where new clients go to the new platform from a set date and existing galleries run until they expire, because galleries, favourites and store history do not transfer automatically between them.

If you are moving delivery to Framekit instead, add two steps: decide where print orders will go, because Framekit cannot take them, and check your longest film against Framekit's per-file cap before delivery day.

The guide to moving from Pixieset to your own website walks through that route.

How to Choose: A Decision Tree

This decision tree asks the questions in the order that eliminates options fastest, starting with prints, because print income decides whether you need either of these platforms before commission, storage or video come into it.

1.

Do prints, albums or wall art bring in more than about $640 a year, or would they with a store? If no, you may be paying for a print engine you do not use; consider a delivery-first tool such as Framekit, especially if you deliver films.

If yes, go to question 2.

2. Will you stay on a free plan this year? If yes, choose ShootProof Free for its 0% commission, or Pixieset Free only if your prints are under $640 a year. If you will pay, go to question 3.

3. Do you deliver more than two hours of film online at once? If yes, choose ShootProof, whose gigabyte video allowances cost less than Pixieset's hours. If not, go to question 4.

4. Do you need contracts and invoices, and do you already pay for a studio manager? If you need them and own none, ShootProof includes them from Starter.

If you want a full suite with a website from one vendor, choose the Pixieset Suite. If you already own a studio manager, go to question 5.

5. Do your clients value a familiar gallery, a mobile app and Lightroom sync more than you value included paperwork? If yes, choose Pixieset. If not, choose ShootProof, and set your own markups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pixieset vs ShootProof: which is better in 2026?

ShootProof is better for print-selling and hybrid studios, because it charges 0% commission on every plan, includes contracts and invoices from Starter at $8.33 a month billed yearly, and measures video in gigabytes.

Pixieset is better for photographers who want the most familiar client gallery, mobile apps, Lightroom sync and a website and studio suite from one vendor, with commission-free sales from Basic at $8 a month billed yearly.

Is ShootProof cheaper than Pixieset?

ShootProof is cheaper than Pixieset's free plan for anyone who sells prints, and close to Pixieset's paid plans otherwise. Basic costs $96 a year and Starter about $100.

For a stills wedding studio, Pixieset Pro at $288 a year is cheaper than ShootProof Professional at $320, but for a hybrid studio with 10 hours of film online, ShootProof's $320 beats Pixieset's $768.

Does Pixieset really take 15% commission?

Yes, on the free plan only. Pixieset's pricing FAQ says free accounts pay a 15% commission fee on store sales and upgraded accounts pay none.

On $4,800 of print sales that is $720, while Basic costs $96 a year billed yearly, so any photographer selling more than about $640 of prints a year should upgrade.

Does ShootProof charge commission?

No. ShootProof's plans page lists commission-free sales on every plan, including the free one, along with selling lab prints, products and videos at your own prices. Card processing still applies, and the free plan is limited to 3GB of photos with no video.

Which handles video better, Pixieset or ShootProof?

ShootProof handles larger volumes of film more cheaply, because it measures video in gigabytes, pooled with photos on Starter and Standard and 50GB or 150GB on Professional and Premium.

Pixieset meters video in hours, from 30 minutes on Basic to 5 hours on Ultimate, with extra hours at $5 a month. ShootProof also lets you sell videos in its store; Pixieset's help centre says video cannot be sold through its store.

Which is better for a wedding photographer?

ShootProof is the better money tool for a wedding photographer who sells albums and delivers a film, because commission is 0%, contracts and invoices are included and 50GB of video comes with Professional.

Pixieset is the better client-experience tool, and its galleries and app are the ones many couples have seen before.

Our client galleries for wedding photographers guide covers the wider field.

Can I use my own domain with Pixieset or ShootProof?

Pixieset says you can use your own domain for your website and client galleries on any upgraded account, from Basic at $8 a month billed yearly.

ShootProof's plans page does not list custom domains, so confirm it in the account before planning around it. Framekit galleries live under /client/ on your own Framekit site, with your domain from Starter.

Does ShootProof include a website?

Yes. ShootProof's plans page lists a simple portfolio website on every plan, including free. Pixieset sells Pixieset Website as a separate product or inside the Pixieset Suite.

Neither is a full marketing site builder in the way a dedicated website platform is, which is why many photographers link galleries from a separate site.

Do I need Studio Manager with Pixieset to send contracts?

Yes. Pixieset's contracts, invoices, questionnaires and booking live in Studio Manager, sold separately or inside the Pixieset Suite at up to 37% off the separate prices.

ShootProof includes e-sign contracts and invoicing with tipping on every paid plan, with unlimited online booking as a $6.99 a month add-on.

Which is better for school, sports or volume photography?

Neither is built for volume work. Both are shaped around individual client galleries rather than hundreds of subjects finding their own photos, and neither lists subject matching or parent ordering.

ShootProof's archiving and Pixieset Ultimate's unlimited photo storage cope with large archives, but a dedicated volume platform is the better fit; see the best client galleries for school photographers.

Does Framekit replace Pixieset or ShootProof?

Only for photographers who sell no prints. Framekit delivers unlimited galleries of photos and films from your own website, with video review, Slides and a digital store on the same account, from $0 on Free.

It has no print store, lab, price sheets, albums, mobile app, contracts, invoices, RAW support or unlimited storage, so print-selling studios should keep Pixieset or ShootProof.

Which platform accepts RAW files?

Pixieset accepts RAW uploads on Pro and Ultimate, with up to 1,000GB of RAW on Ultimate. ShootProof's plans page does not list RAW support, so check before planning to deliver camera originals there.

Framekit does not accept RAW, TIFF or PSD; its galleries take JPEG, PNG, WebP and GIF photos.

Which is easier to leave later?

Both are similar to leave, because your images are the portable asset and galleries, favourites, store setups and gallery links stay behind.

Pixieset can be stickier if you also run its Website and Studio Manager, since unwinding three products is more work than one. Plan any move as a forward switch and keep the old plan until the last gallery has expired.

Final Verdict: Pixieset vs ShootProof in 2026

ShootProof wins the money question.

It charges 0% commission on every plan, includes contracts and invoices from $8.33 a month billed yearly, lets you sell videos and slideshows alongside prints, and measures video in gigabytes, which makes it much cheaper for a hybrid studio.

Pick it if prints are real income, if you deliver films, or if you want your paperwork inside your gallery plan.

Pixieset wins the experience and breadth question.

Its galleries are familiar to clients, its mobile apps and Lightroom sync are mature, RAW upload arrives on Pro, every paid plan supports your own domain, and its Suite can run your website and studio tools too.

Pick it if the gallery is a brand moment, if you would use the Suite, and if your film volume fits its hours.

Where Framekit loses to both: it does not sell prints, does not offer price sheets, albums or labs, does not have a mobile app, does not do contracts or invoices, does not accept RAW and does not offer unlimited storage.

It is the better fit only for the photographer who sells no prints, delivers film, and wants the website, review round and galleries in one account.
