One shoot, start to finish

From "how much?" to five stars in eight days.

Hannah runs Kettle & Light, at-home family sessions around Ashgrove in Brisbane. She shoots on weekends and edits at night. Bec has two boys, a bench full of cereal boxes, and wants photos before they grow up. This is how one Instagram message becomes a booked shoot, a fresh gallery on the website and a five-star review.

Kettle & Light, Hannah, Bec and the photos are made up to show how it works
8:42pmSunday

Bec asks on Instagram. The reply is ready before Hannah opens it.

"Do you do at-home shoots? Two boys, 3 and 6. How much?" It lands in the LocalGenius inbox next to the Facebook messages, Google questions and website forms. Genius drafts a friendly reply with two links: the Family packages page and Hannah's booking link. She reads it, changes one word and sends it from the couch.

Bec picks a package over breakfast and books a Saturday.

The Packages page answers the money question with photos, not a price list in a DM. Bec taps Golden Hour at Home, then Book a session opens the booking tool Hannah already uses. The session, deposit and reminders stay there, just as they do now.

The gallery goes to Bec. The favourites go to work.

Hannah delivers the gallery the way she always does. Then, in the LocalGenius app, she picks six favourites Bec is happy to share and says "Add these to my At-home page and write a post." Genius adds them to the website, writes the Instagram and Facebook post, and adds them to Google. Nothing goes up until she taps Publish.

Bec loves the gallery. Now Google knows it too.

A few days after the gallery goes out, LocalGenius texts Bec a short thank-you with a link to leave a Google review. Her five stars land on the profile next to the new photos, right where the next family searching "family photographer Ashgrove" will see them.

  • Review requests by text or email, timed after delivery
  • Google profile photos and hours kept up to date

Hi Bec, I loved photographing your boys on Saturday. If you're happy with the gallery, would you leave a quick Google review? It helps other families find me. g.page/kettleandlight/review Hannah

Hannah came to our place on a Saturday morning and somehow got two wild boys to sit still at the kitchen bench. The photos are us, cereal and all. Booking was so easy.

Our newborn photos at home were beautiful and so relaxed.

That was one family. LocalGenius does it for every shoot.

Your pages

Your work first. Then every answer.

People book a photographer with their eyes. So every kind of shoot gets its own page with its own photos, your packages get a page, and every suburb you travel to gets one too. Genius writes the words; you pick the photos and approve each page.

Sample pages
kettleandlight.com.au/at-home-family-photos
kKettle & LightBook a session
Home › At-home sessions

Your family, in your own kitchen.

No studio, no matching outfits. I come to your place in the morning light and photograph the real thing: breakfast, bedheads and all.

Questions

$29.99 a month to start

Four plans, from a simple website to fully managed. Free domain for the first year.

See all plans →
Does LocalGenius take my bookings or deliver galleries?

No. Your Book a session button opens the booking tool you already use, like Calendly, Studio Ninja or your own link, and galleries stay in your gallery service. LocalGenius looks after the website, the messages, the posts and the reviews around them.

Will my photos look sharp?

Your work is the point, so pages are built around big photos that fill the screen on a laptop and a phone. You choose which photos go on each page, and you can swap them any time from the app or by typing to Ask Genius.

Can I answer Instagram and Facebook messages from it?

Yes. Instagram and Facebook messages, Google questions, website forms, chat and email all land in one inbox, each marked with where it came from. Genius drafts a reply that links to your own pages, and you check it and send it back on the same channel.

Do posts go out without me seeing them?

Never. Genius writes them from the photos you pick and the time of year, then they wait for your OK before going to Instagram, Facebook and your Google profile.

Your best work deserves to be found. Let's put it up front.

Get your photography website up, then let LocalGenius look after the messages, the posts, the reviews and Google.
