Why I've Used Studio Ninja since 2020 (And Why You Should Too)
Okay, I'll be upfront about this - I do have a referral code. But stick with me, because I genuinely wouldn't be sharing this if I didn't actually love it and want your business to feel easier to run. I've been using Studio Ninja for over six years now and I can't imagine running my business without it.
Let me take you back to before Studio Ninja. I'd been a professional family photographer for 7 years, but behind the scenes? Everything was so manual, always starting from scratch with every enquiry. Invoices that didn't look particularly professional, printed contracts I was bringing to session for people to sign and storing in a filing cabinet (no joke!), emails I'd sent with zero idea if they'd even been opened. I was working so hard in my business but definitely not working smart.
Studio Ninja changed that pretty much overnight.
Ever since, everything that goes out to my clients is branded and professional, invoices, contracts, questionnaires, email templates, all of it. It looks like a legit, polished business, because it IS a legit, polished business, but it used to not feel that way from the admin side of things!
The thing I love most is knowing exactly what's happening with every single client at any given moment. I can see when someone has opened my email, when they've signed their contract, when they've completed their questionnaire, when a deposit has hit. No more chasing, no more "did you get my email?", no more wondering. It's all there! My workflows are completely personalised to how I run my shoots. My to-do lists keep me sane during October and November when I'm shooting and editing basically around the clock. And every client record, every signed contract, every payment, it's all stored safely in one place. This also really saves me come tax time! And when a return client wants to book again, I can refresh my memory on our previous shoots and everything about them and their kids. As someone who's been running this business for over 13 years, having that record of everything is honestly such a weight off my shoulders.
It took my business to a WAY more professional level and it took so much stress out of my day-to-day. I am also a former primary school teacher - so I know a good system when I see one! 😄
If you're a photographer who's still juggling spreadsheets, random email threads and hand-signed contracts, please do yourself a favour.
