Time Tracking for Photographers Who Bill for Shoots, Editing, and Licensing
Photographers time tracking
Teetrack helps photographers log hours across shoots, post-production, and client communication so you can price accurately and invoice without guesswork.
Why Photographers struggle with time tracking
Post-production takes three times longer than the shoot but clients only see the shoot
Culling, color grading, retouching, and export preparation often consume far more hours than the actual session. Without tracking, photographers undercharge because they price based on shoot duration alone.
Client communication and planning time goes unbilled
Location scouting, mood board creation, wardrobe discussions, and scheduling calls are essential to a successful shoot but rarely appear as line items. These hours quietly reduce your effective rate.
Package pricing hides which shoots are actually profitable
Wedding packages, corporate headshot bundles, and event rates feel standardized — but the actual time per booking varies wildly. Without data, you cannot tell which packages earn a sustainable rate.
How Teetrack solves this
- Post-production time invisible to clients: Log time per phase — shooting, editing, retouching, delivery — within each booking so you see the true time cost of every project.
- Booking budgets exceeded without early warning: Set hour budgets per booking and track time against them so you know when a project exceeds the scope of the original package.
- Invoicing from memory after a busy month: Generate invoices from tracked time with per-booking line items so clients see a clear breakdown of shoot, editing, and delivery hours.
