Three connected disciplines. Zero fragmented compromises.

Run the work around every shoot in one connected workspace. From the first enquiry to permanent client archives.

CHAPTER 01 · PREPARE

Get the work organised before the shoot begins.

A shoot rarely starts when you pick up the camera. It starts with an enquiry, a date, a conversation, a quote, a crew, and a hundred small things that somehow end up scattered across WhatsApp. Pholume keeps them together.

Enquiries & Bookings: Keep client enquiries, proposals, bookings, and shoot details in one place, so the work does not disappear into message threads.
Crew & Shoot Logistics: Create call sheets, assign people, share timings, and keep everyone working from the same information without asking freelancers to install another app.
Gear Locker: Know where your cameras and lenses are, who has them, when they need servicing, and how much use they have had before the next shoot.

"Prepare the work. Then make the photographs."

Explore the hardware gear locker, crew logistics, and client proposals.

CHAPTER 02 · DELIVER

Give clients a better way to receive the work.

The job is not finished when the edit is exported. Send a gallery that feels like your studio, let clients choose their favourites, collect feedback, manage payments, and release the finished files without jumping between different services.

Beautiful Client Galleries: Full-resolution photographs, private access, custom typography, and simple downloads. No compressed preview experience pretending to be the final product.
Proofing & Selection: Clients can favourite photographs and leave retouching notes from the same gallery they use to view the work.
Lightroom Classic Sync: Bring client favourites, star ratings, colour labels, and retouching notes back into Adobe Lightroom Classic instead of hunting through WhatsApp messages for filenames.
Payments & Delivery: Keep invoices, payment milestones, and final delivery connected to the same client workflow.

"Deliver beautifully. Keep the workflow behind it simple."

Explore client gallery showrooms, preview 13 curated gallery themes, and discover the Adobe Lightroom plugin.

CHAPTER 03 · PRESERVE

Let the work live beyond the gallery.

Most galleries are built around temporary delivery. Eventually, they disappear. Memory Vaults give clients a way to keep their finished photographs for the long term, while creating a new relationship between the studio and the work it has already delivered.

Client Memory Vaults: Offer dedicated long-term preservation for wedding and portrait work beyond the normal delivery window.
Studio Renewal Credit: When a client renews their Memory Vault, 10% of the renewal value is credited towards your Pholume subscription.
Storage That Comes Back Around: When a vault moves into long-term preservation, the storage model is designed to return capacity to your studio rather than making every old gallery permanently consume your active working space.
Trust-First Privacy: No facial recognition. No facial scanning. No biometric indexing. Strict DPDP Act 2023 compliance.

"The work you have delivered can become part of the relationship you keep."

Learn how independent studios save on storage through permanent client memory vaults.

Never hunt through thousands of raw filenames again.

When clients request edits via text messages or spreadsheets, hours are lost cross-referencing raw camera filenames. Pholume ends the scavenger hunt.

THE OLD WAY

"Can you edit the candid one near the palace archway where my sister is laughing?"

Couples send message screenshots or mismatched filenames. You spend evenings manually matching raw files against catalog folders.

THE PHOLUME WAY

Instant catalogue synchronisation in 1 click.

Client taps once on mobile. Exact colour label, star rating, and coordinate note appear inside Adobe Lightroom Classic.

Why Leading Studios Move Beyond Fragmented Workflows.

The real cost of messy, disconnected tools versus a unified studio workspace.

MAKESHIFT CLOUD FOLDERS & MESSAGE THREADS

Disjointed & Compromised

Unorganised links, confusing raw filenames, download errors, and lost feedback.

MANUAL LIGHTROOM CULLING

Time-Consuming Culling

Searching raw filenames across WhatsApp screenshots consumes 6 to 8 hours per wedding.

SCATTERED STUDIO OPERATIONS

Equipment & Crew Friction

Double-booked lenses, forgotten call sheets, and shoot-day logistics chaos.

OVERSEAS DOLLAR PLATFORMS

Currency Risk & Egress Caps

Billed in USD ($35 to $50/mo), recurring RBI card declines, and 18% foreign transaction fees.

TEMPORARY GALLERY HOSTING

Deletion Deadlines & Waste

Hard 90-day deletion deadlines risk losing family heirlooms and require awkward upsell pitches.
