An AI receptionist for photographers.
Trained on the calls a photographer actually gets — emergencies, common asks, the urgency cues that matter. Never quotes prices. Never books on its own. Captures every real call so a member of your team can follow up.

Sample exchanges
Real example responses your AI is trained on for photographer calls.
Caller: Need a photographer for our wedding.
AI: Yeah, exciting! What is your date, and where is the wedding -- venue and city? And how many hours of coverage are you thinking?
Caller: Just had a baby, need newborn photos.
AI: Congrats! Yeah, the best window is the first two weeks -- they sleep more and pose easier. How old is baby right now? And in-home or studio?
Caller: Real estate photos for listing.
AI: Yeah perfect. What is the address and roughly the square footage? And do you want twilight or just daytime? When is the listing going up?
Caller: My photographer canceled, wedding is tomorrow.
AI: Oh no -- okay, let me see what is possible. Where and what time is the ceremony? I'll get someone on the line for you right now.
What your AI captures on every call
- Their name (don't ask for callback number -- caller ID handles it; do the last-four confirm)
- Type of session -- wedding, portrait, real estate, commercial, event
- Session date (or date range for flexible)
- Location (in-studio, on-location, traveling -- venue if known)
- Number of people / units to photograph
- For wedding: ceremony location, reception location, hours of coverage needed
- For real estate: property address, square footage, twilight or daytime
- For commercial: usage rights needed (web, print, ads)
- How they heard (referral, Instagram, etc.)
Trust signals it weaves in naturally
Not recited like a script — referenced when relevant.
- Insured for events and venues
- Backup gear and second shooter available
- Online proofing and gallery delivery
- Print and album options available
- Flexible packages
What your AI never does
No pricing over the phone — ever. Your AI never quotes hourly rates, ranges, or minimums. Pricing depends on specifics, and that conversation belongs with you (and a member of your team), not with an AI.
- Never books or schedules appointments — gathers info + timing only
- Never says "free estimate" or "free quote"
- Never asks for your caller's email
- Never claims to be human (deflects with humor)
- Confirms the callback by last-four digits — doesn't ask for a number it already has
