Associate Shooter Scheduling Coordination
A done-for-you photography and video automation built for the Studio Owner, connecting Twilio and Google Calendar so the work below happens on its own.
What this automation does, step by step
When a booked shoot requires an associate photographer or second shooter, this automation automatically checks the associate's calendar for availability, sends them the shoot details for confirmation, and flags the studio owner if no associate has confirmed within a set number of days of the shoot date.
A shoot never gets uncomfortably close to happening without a confirmed second shooter in place.
- HoneyBook
- Google Calendar
- Zapier or Make.com
- Twilio or email
Using different software? We build around what you already have, so you never have to switch tools to automate.
The manual way vs. the automated way
Without automation
Manually, a studio owner is stuck doing repetitive follow-ups and data entry that could otherwise run quietly in the background. Over a month, those small manual steps add up to a significant amount of lost time.
With this automation
- Multi-touch reminders that measurably reduce no-shows
- Waitlists that backfill cancellations automatically
- Self-scheduling with instant confirmations
- Dispatch and on-my-way updates sent to the right people
