Stop Drowning in DMs — A Booking System Built for Photographers
Every new project means a dozen messages — pricing questions, scheduling, style preferences, wardrobe checks — and the pre-shoot back-and-forth eats straight into your editing time. Dolyu lets clients choose their package, fill in their requirements, and complete the booking themselves. Shoot reminders go out automatically and style notes are stored in full.
Whether you're a solo photographer, a portrait studio, or a commercial production team, Dolyu makes taking on new work smoother and every shoot better prepared.
Clients fill in their requirements and preferences when they book — drastically cutting the back-and-forth over pricing, scheduling, and style.
Automated reminders go out with the shoot date and preparation notes — clients don't forget, and wasted time slots become far less common.
Schedule controls and buffer settings keep your workload from getting too dense, leaving enough post-processing time so quality never gets squeezed.
Features built for Photography
Separate Scheduling for Consultations and Shoots
Set up consultations, location scouts, and full shoots as distinct services — each with their own duration and pricing. Manage exactly how much you take on each day.
Pre-Shoot Style & Requirements Collection
Log the client's preferred composition style, lighting mood, wardrobe plans, and reference images so you're fully aligned before the shoot day.
Automated Shoot Reminders
A confirmation goes out right after booking, then another reminder the day before the shoot — reducing forgotten prep and last-minute no-shows.
Workload & Buffer Time Control
Set schedule blocks and service buffer times — the system calculates available slots automatically to prevent back-to-back shoots from impacting post-processing quality.
Portfolio-Driven Conversions
Showcase your work by photography type so potential clients can browse the style they love and book directly — the shortest path from interest to appointment.
Branded Booking Page with Portfolio
Combine your service packages, pricing details, and booking notes in one place so clients can go from browsing to booked the moment they're ready.

Photography requires multi-stage scheduling (consultation, location scout, shoot) and pre-shoot requirement collection. Dolyu manages each stage independently — clients fill in what you need and you go straight to preparation, no more repeated clarification messages.
Set up "Consultation / Location Scout" and "Shoot Session" as separate service items, each with their own duration and fee — giving you flexible control over every stage.
Every package has its own name, duration, and price. Basic packages, extended packages, and maternity sessions can all be managed independently.
List your preparation checklist in the service description. After booking, the system automatically sends a confirmation, then another reminder the day before the shoot.
