All gallery features
Galleries. Show off your work in a beautiful proofing Gallery. Not only is it easy for you to create and publish galleries, but it is intuitive and simple for your clients to use and view their images.
Print sales. Your clients can make purchases and pay for their print order right from their online gallery. Sprout Studio doesn’t take any commission, and you can self-fulfill the print order with whichever lab you’d like!
Product sales. You can sell products and services other than prints in a gallery, and optionally specify how many images your client must choose for those products. For example, if your client is buying an album, you can specify that they must also choose between 75-100 images for that album.
Get paid. With Sprout Studio, you can have your clients pay with a credit card via PayPal, Stripe or Authorize.net, or you can have them choose to pay manually, such as by calling you or mailing a cheque.
Web slideshows. Your clients can enjoy a seamless slideshow experience of their gallery with the click of a button, and it looks beautiful! The experience through Sprout Studio gallery slideshows mimics that of a desktop photo browsing software – all on the web!
Digital downloads. You can enable digital fulfillment and downloads for individual images or the entire set for just your client, anyone with a password, or anyone at all who visits the gallery. Best of all? You can make that digital download high-resolution, or you can restrict it to a specific width with an optional watermark.
Organize into collections. Organize all of your images from a gallery into folders (collections). This makes the viewing experience for your clients much more streamlined and efficient!
Watermarks. Protect your images online with a gallery watermark. You can upload your logo, specify its placement, width and opacity, and have Sprout Studio automatically apply this watermark to all of your images in your galleries!
Favorites. Your clients can choose their favourite images in their gallery, which are automatically submitted to you. If they revisit their gallery, they can easily pull up their favourites and continue favouriting!
Placeholder gallery. Create a placeholder gallery before a gallery is made publicly available so you can collect email addresses of those interested in viewing the gallery. Then, email those visitors to announce when the gallery is available once you publish it.
Collect emails. You can optionally add an email-gate to your galleries, so visitors will need to give their email address before viewing a gallery. Then, you can send emails to everyone who has submitted their email address (i.e. to remind them when the gallery is expiring).
Templates. Save time by creating gallery templates, which can include gallery folders, pricing details, a watermark, download presets, and much more. This allows you to do the work once and then re-use it over and over again.
Coupons. Create coupons to be used in galleries towards print orders. You can create a coupon for one-off purposes (i.e. a coupon for a client), or a re-usable coupon (i.e. 20% off for everyone). This allows you to be as flexible as you need to be while still giving you a simple way to entice print sales and ordering.
Booking proposal. In their booking proposal, your clients can easily choose a package, sign a contract, fill out a questionnaire and make a deposit, all from the comfort of their web browser. Of course, you can customize everything so everything happens just the way you want it to.
Public price lists.
Easily create public price lists which allow your clients to view all of your offerings at a glance. Show off your packages, products, services, and prints with sample images, and include descriptive details to help your clients see the value in what you offer.
... and much more!

All business analytics features
Business health analytics show you various summaries, metrics, and graphs that are designed to help you understand the "health" of your business.
Sales analytics helps you understand what products, services, and packages are most popular with your clients. You can see a "leaderboard" of your most popular offerings as well as a full breakdown of each one.
Booking trend shows you a pattern of your inquiries and conversion rates. You can see how many inquiries you get, your average booking rate (per shoot type) and the amount of time it typically takes you to book different types of clients.
Performance metrics are sort of like "Google Analytics" for your Sprout Studio client activity. You can see a full breakdown of how many views your galleries, design proofs, and booking proposals get.
Contact analytics allows you to dive deeper and analyze your clients with a bit more granularity. You'll be able to see where your clients are from, how many of your clients are repeat clients (and how many shoots they've booked with you) and who you most valuable clients are, dollar-wise.
Income statement shows you your income and past-due income over a specified period. You can view it as a visual graph of all of your payments received (in green) and past due income (in red), as well as a list of all of your payments received and a list of all of your past due invoices.
Sales report allows you to see your total sales. This is like an "income report," but it doesn't consider whether income has been collected or not, only that you "sold" that item.
Accounts receivable shows all of your income that is yet to be received over a specified time period. You can view it as a visual graph of all of your upcoming invoices (in blue) and past due income (in red), as well as a list of all of your past due invoices.
Expense report lets you see all of your expenses. You can track expenses within Sprout Studio and optionally attach them to a shoot so you can keep everything organized. When you categorize them, you can easily view where and how you're spending money in your business.
Mileage logging lets you see all of your mileage entries. You can log mileage within Sprout Studio, so you know how much you're driving and for what. You can also add the dollar value you're allowed to write-off, so you can quickly see how much of a write-off your driving is over time.
General ledger gives you a journal-view of all of your received payments and expenses over a specified period.
Sales tax report shows you all of the sales tax you collected over a specified period. Sales taxes within Sprout Studio are grouped into the different types of sales taxes you have created, so if you have multiple classes of taxes, you'll be able to see the tax collected for each type.
Advanced filtering. For all reports and analytics within Sprout Studio, you can quickly drill down the data to show you only specific information, allowing you to answer complex questions with ease. For example, you could answer the question "How much income did I make from weddings referred by Vintage Hotels last year?"
Exporting. All reports and analytics can be exported as a CSV file so that you can give them to your bookkeeper, accountant, or import into other tools such as Quickbooks or Simply Accounting.
Client stats. For every client, you can easily see stats for them - how long they've been a client for, how many leads and shoots they have, and what their worth is to you as a client.
