Title: Noor Frames Studio
One-liner:
A solo photographer in Lahore was losing her evenings to Instagram DMs and no-shows. Now clients book and pay a deposit on their own in 5 steps, and reminders and follow-ups happen automatically.
Description:
The business
Noor Frames Studio is a small photography studio in Gulberg III, Lahore, run by one person: Ayesha Noor.
The problem
Most clients message on Instagram asking "what is the price?" and "Is Saturday free?". One booking takes about 15 messages, and many clients stop replying.
Ayesha replies to DMs until 11pm.
Clients often miss Eid mini-sessions because no advance is taken.
Weddings need 2 editing days after them, and outdoor shoots only work at golden hour.
What I built
For clients:
Prices are shown upfront.
A live calendar shows only the times that are really free.
Clients book in 5 simple steps and pay a deposit.
They get confirmed instantly, with a booking ticket.
For Ayesha:
Reminders are sent automatically 2 days and 2 hours before the shoot.
Clients reschedule themselves using their own link.
People who leave the form halfway get a follow-up after 24 hours.
Editing days after weddings are blocked automatically.
One dashboard shows all bookings, leads and time saved.
Before → After
Before: about 15 messages and 2 days per booking, with frequent no-shows.
After: no messages needed, every booking is backed by a deposit, and Ayesha just shows up and shoots.
