Iris Works review

Iris Works is a photography CRM focused on booking, client management, contracts, invoices and workflows. The Starter plan costs $14.95 a month or $149 a year and includes online booking, a booking website, online payment processing, e-contracts and invoice templates on booking, which suits a portrait or mini-session photographer who mainly needs clients to book and pay. Basic at $29.95 a month adds workflows and automation, a custom lead page, contract templates, invoices and quotes and locations. Pro at $39.95 adds online booking or email marketing plus free account setup, and Pro Plus at $49.95 includes both. Iris Works publishes free questionnaires for family, maternity, newborn, portrait, wedding and boudoir sessions. Two limits matter: the company says each account covers one brand, and gallery delivery is not included, though it integrates with Pic-Time and ShootProof. The trial runs 14 days without a card. We compared documented features and published prices, and Iris Works ranks eighth because automation needs the second tier.
