Save, reuse & duplicate plans

Keep every booking in your dashboard. Build a plan once, duplicate it for the next similar wedding, and tweak the details.

Your branding everywhere

Your logo, studio name, and accent color on exported PDFs and client links — the plan looks like it came from you, because it did.

Golden hour & blue hour timing

Sunset math for the venue's actual location and timezone, flagged right on the timeline — so couple portraits land in the best light of the day.

Family formals builder

Type in the family names and get standard groupings as a ready-to-shoot list, with the formals block on the timeline resized to match.

“Running late” shift

Hair and makeup ran over? Shift the rest of the day by any number of minutes in one click — golden hour gets re-checked automatically.

Second shooter assignments

A who-covers-what table generated from your actual timeline, so your second knows where to be during the first look and the reception.

Shareable client links

Send couples and planners a clean, read-only page with your branding. No login, opens on any phone.

Calendar, gear & contacts

Export the day as an .ics calendar file, run a per-event-type gear checklist, and keep planner/venue contacts on the plan.

6 more session types

Engagement, proposal, maternity, family, newborn, and senior session templates with session-length options and portrait-light timing.

One planning tool for every shoot you book

Frequently asked questions

How do I make a wedding photography timeline?

Enter the basics of the shoot — event type, ceremony time, hours of coverage, whether there's a first look, and one location or two — and ThePhotogPlan instantly builds a complete day-of timeline and shot list you can edit, copy, print, and share.

What should be on a wedding day photography timeline?

A photography timeline typically covers getting-ready coverage, the first look (if any), ceremony, family formals, wedding-party and couple's portraits, reception events, and golden-hour photos — all timed around the ceremony and your coverage hours. ThePhotogPlan lays these out automatically.

Is the wedding timeline generator really free?

Yes. Full wedding and elopement timelines with matching shot lists are free forever — no account, no credit card. Pro ($9/month or $79/year) adds saving plans, branding, golden-hour timing, six more session types, and shareable client links.

Does ThePhotogPlan use AI to build timelines?

No. Timelines are built from proven wedding-day templates and straightforward time math, so results are instant, consistent, and predictable every time — and the free tier stays free.

Can my clients see the timeline without an account?

Yes. Pro plans include shareable client links — a clean, read-only page with your branding that couples and planners can open on any device, no login required. You can also export a branded PDF or an .ics calendar file.

Does it work for engagement, newborn, or family sessions?

Yes. Beyond weddings and elopements, Pro unlocks engagement, proposal, maternity, family, newborn, and senior session templates, each with session-length options and morning or evening golden-hour timing.

Can I cancel my Pro subscription?
