Custom-built on our template engine — bespoke design available as an upsell later.

The problem

The grind isn't your craft.
It's the scattered stack.

Your work is better than your handle. But right now it's buried under tools that were never built for you.

✕

Four tools, four logins

A site builder here, galleries there, a store somewhere else, and a link-in-bio holding it all together with tape.

✕

Commissions on your own sales

Platforms take a cut of every print and download — money your work earned, leaving your pocket.

✕

Galleries that disappear

Some platforms delete your old galleries. Others charge you rent to keep your own archive alive.

✕

Instagram, disconnected

Your portfolio lives on Instagram, but your site never talks to it — so every update is double the work.

Safelight replaces the whole stack with one system.

What's included

Everything a photographer needs.
Nothing that isn't.

One login, one system, your brand on every pixel.

01

Your website

A custom site on your own domain, built on our template engine and skinned to your brand — portfolio, about, contact, booking.

  • Your domain, your brand
  • Instagram-synced portfolio
  • Mobile-first, fast by default
02

Client galleries

Unlimited password-gated galleries. Deliver a wedding, a media day, or a full season — clients get a private link that feels like you.

  • Unlimited galleries, both tiers
  • Password protection per gallery
  • Story-ready delivery announcements
03

Your store

Prints, downloads, and albums sold through your own Stripe account. Client pays you, the lab ships — Safelight takes 0%.

  • Print / download / album products
  • Your Stripe, your money
  • 0% Safelight commission, forever

Wired into Instagram

Your grid syncs straight to your portfolio — post once, it's everywhere. New galleries get story-ready announcements, and clients receive their delivery links by DM. Your Instagram finally works for your business instead of beside it.

Pricing

Simple pricing.
Zero commission.

Setup once, then one flat monthly. Every print you sell is yours — we never take a cut.

+ $49/month
  • Branded website on your domain
  • Instagram-synced portfolio
  • Unlimited client galleries
  • Password-gated delivery links
  • Story-ready gallery announcements
Start with Launch

Most photographers start with Store — the store pays for itself the first time a client orders prints. And because there's no commission, every sale after that is pure margin.

The archive promise

Unlimited galleries.
We never delete your work.

Other platforms delete old galleries — or charge you rent to keep them. Safelight archives quietly and restores in one tap.

01

Idle for 12 months

A gallery nobody's opened in a year moves to cold storage. We notify you first — and you can pin any gallery to stay live forever.

02

One-tap restore

Need it back? One tap and the gallery is live again, exactly as it was. No re-uploads, no rebuilds, no fees.

03

Waking-up page

While archived, the gallery link shows a beautiful "waking up" page — with email capture, so old work keeps working for you.

Your archive is yours. We just keep it safe.

How it works

Live in weeks,
not months.

FAQ

Fair questions,
straight answers.

Q0% commission — really?

Really. Your store runs on your Stripe account, so client payments go straight to you. Safelight never touches your sales and never takes a cut — not on prints, not on downloads, not on albums. Our business is the flat monthly, not your margin.

QWho owns my photos and my domain?

You do — all of it. Your photos, your domain, your client list, your Stripe account. Safelight is a service you hire, not a platform you rent your business from.

QWhat happens if I cancel?

Your site comes down, but your work doesn't disappear. Archived galleries stay restorable, your domain stays yours, and we'll hand over your files. And per the archive promise — we never delete your work.

QDo you take a cut of print sales?

No. Never. The lab charges your lab account, the client pays you, and you keep the markup. That's the whole point.

QIs my site really custom, or a template?

It's customized from our template engine — your brand, your photos, your domain, your structure. It launches faster and costs less than a from-scratch build. Fully bespoke design is available later as an upsell if you ever want it.

QHow do client galleries work?

Each gallery gets a private, password-gated link on your domain. You (or we, on the Store tier) upload the photos; your client gets a link that feels like your brand, with story-ready announcements and DM delivery built in.
