Innovate. Create. Elevate.
LensHub is a platform where anyone can find and hire a photographer in minutes — and where photographers can manage their bookings, deliver photos, and get paid, all from one place. Agencies can also use it to run large shoots and manage their whole team of photographers.
Think of it like a booking app — but specifically built for photography. Right now, when someone needs a photographer for a wedding, product shoot, or family portrait, they have to search on Instagram, ask friends, WhatsApp back and forth, pay via bank transfer, and then wait weeks just to get their photos.
LensHub fixes all of that. A customer visits the platform, searches for photographers near them, picks one they like, books and pays online — and after the shoot, the photographer uploads the photos directly to the platform. The customer gets a private gallery link to view and download their photos.
Everything happens in one place. No chasing. No confusion. No cash.
Here is the exact experience a customer has — from the moment they open LensHub to the moment they download their final photos.
The customer visits LensHub on their phone or laptop. They type what they need — for example "wedding photographer in Pune" — and see a list of photographers nearby. Each profile shows the photographer's work, their price, and their available dates. Like browsing a menu.
Once the customer finds someone they like, they click Book. They pick the date and time, fill in a short form about what they need, sign a digital contract (auto-generated), and pay a deposit online — just like booking a hotel. The photographer gets an instant notification.
The photographer shows up and does the shoot. LensHub isn't involved here — this is real life. But both the customer and photographer have the booking details, the brief, and each other's contact info all in the app, so there's no confusion about what was agreed.
After the shoot and editing, the photographer simply uploads the final photos to LensHub — just like uploading to Google Drive, but with proper tools. They can upload a large batch at once, apply watermarks while the customer is reviewing, and mark photos as "ready to deliver" when done.
The customer gets a private link — only they can open it. Inside, they see all their photos in a beautiful gallery. They can tap a heart on any photo they love, and leave a comment on any photo they want edited ("can you remove the person in the background?"). This replaces the mess of marking up photos on WhatsApp.
Once edits are done and the customer is happy, they pay the remaining balance. The watermarks disappear, and the customer can download their full-resolution photos in one click. The photographer's money is released automatically. Done. No chasing. No back and forth.
For large bookings or if there is any dispute, our team can step in to review and resolve it — the admin panel gives full visibility into every transaction and conversation.
A photography agency isn't just one person — they manage a team of photographers and take on large commercial projects. Here is how the same platform works for them.
These are the features we're building — each one solving a real pain point in how photography is hired and delivered today.
Customers search for photographers by location, type of shoot, and price range. Filters help them narrow down quickly without calling anyone.
Photographers keep their availability up to date. Customers book an open slot directly — like booking a salon appointment online.
A contract is generated and signed online at the time of booking. The customer also fills in a brief so the photographer knows exactly what's needed.
Money is collected at booking but only released after photos are delivered. Neither side has to trust the other blindly.
After the shoot, photos live in a beautiful private gallery. Customers can heart, comment, and download — all in one place.
While reviewing, photos have a watermark. Once the final payment is done, watermarks are removed automatically and full downloads unlock.
Agencies can post projects, receive applications from photographers, assign jobs, track progress, and deliver everything under their own brand.
Agencies deliver photo galleries with their own logo and web address — the client sees a professional agency experience, not LensHub.
For agency jobs, the platform automatically splits income between the agency, the freelancer, and LensHub. No spreadsheets, no manual transfers.
Most of the platform runs on its own — bookings happen, payments are processed, photos are delivered, all without anyone needing to step in.
But there is a small admin layer that we build and manage. This is what our team sees and controls.
A simple view showing every booking on the platform — who booked whom, for how much, what stage it's at, and whether it's been paid. Think of it like an order management screen.
Before a photographer can accept paid bookings, our team reviews their profile, checks their work, and gives them a "Verified" badge. This keeps quality on the platform high.
If a customer says the photos weren't delivered, or a photographer says they weren't paid — our team reviews the conversation history, uploads, and payment log, and resolves it fairly.
A live view of how the business is doing — how many bookings this week, total revenue, which photographers are most popular, where customers are dropping off.
When photographers earn money, the platform queues their payout automatically. Our team can approve or hold payouts if something needs a manual review first.
The tools we're using are the same ones used by platforms like Airbnb and Shopify — proven, reliable, and built to handle millions of users.
We've mapped out every screen, every user flow, and every technical requirement. We're ready to start building the moment you give us the go-ahead.
