The European alternative to Pic-Time

Elegant galleries and photo sales, plus everything Pic-Time doesn't do: enquiries, quotes, contracts, invoices and bookings. One subscription, in euros.

2-month free trial • No credit card • No commitment

Why look for a Pic-Time alternative?

Pic-Time has become the reference for high-end galleries: polished presentations, advanced sales tools and automated campaigns to sell prints and albums after the session.

But Pic-Time is still a gallery platform. For enquiries, quotes, contracts, invoices and bookings, it points you to partner CRMs like HoneyBook or Studio Ninja. The result: two subscriptions in dollars, two tools to set up, and invoicing that isn't designed for European rules.

What Pic-Time does well

Let's be honest: if you're using it today, there's a good reason.

  • Truly high-end galleries, perfect for weddings
  • Advanced sales tools: store, albums, automated campaigns
  • A network of labs for prints and products
  • Cheap entry-level plans if you only need galleries

Why European photographers leave Pic-Time

You need a second tool

Pic-Time doesn't handle contracts, invoices or bookings. You have to add a CRM, with a second subscription and data to keep in sync.

Subscriptions in dollars

Plans range from $7 to $42 per month paid yearly, excluding tax, for galleries only. The partner CRM comes on top.

Invoicing to rebuild

Mandatory invoice details, VAT, copyright transfers, electronic invoicing: these European rules then depend on your CRM, often built for North America.
