Questions
Yes. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial of the full CRM and mobile app. Client galleries are the one exception: they unlock with a paid Studio or Pro subscription, though you can browse a sample gallery on any plan to see exactly what your clients would get.
Essentials is the complete CRM: clients, contracts, invoices, emails, booking, timelines, and the mobile app. Studio adds unlimited client galleries with up to 250 GB of photo storage. Pro raises that to 1 TB for high-volume studios. Every CRM feature is in every plan; you're only choosing how much gallery storage you need.
Pay for a year up front and the monthly rate drops: Essentials works out to $19.99/mo, Studio $34.99/mo, and Pro $49.99/mo. On Pro that's $120 saved every year. Prefer flexibility? Monthly billing is available on every plan.
Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade anytime from your account settings, and the change is prorated by Stripe. Start on Essentials and add galleries whenever you're ready.
Nothing. Your original price is grandfathered for as long as you keep your subscription. If you want client galleries, upgrading to Studio or Pro is available to you just like everyone else.
No. There are no per-user fees, no setup fees, and no transaction fees from us. The plan price is what you pay.
A fully edited shoot delivery usually runs 2 to 6 GB of high-resolution JPEGs, so Studio's 250 GB comfortably covers a busy year of shoots. Galleries and client downloads are unlimited on both plans; only storage is metered. Pro's 1 TB covers years of high-volume work, and extra storage is available as an add-on if you ever outgrow it.
Absolutely. There are no long-term contracts or cancellation fees. You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings, and you'll retain access through the end of your billing period.
No. Team management is included in every plan. Add second shooters, assistants, or editors to your account at no additional cost.
Fstop is built by a solo photographer, not backed by venture capital with investor expectations. There's no bloated team, no marketing department spending millions. The savings go directly to you. We believe great tools for photographers shouldn't cost a fortune.
If you cancel, you'll retain access until the end of your billing period. After that, your data is kept for 30 days in case you change your mind. You can also export your data at any time while your account is active.
