What's New

Features:

• You may have noticed that your email modal now includes the ability to CC and BCC!
• We’ve added the ability to include international phone numbers in support of our upcoming release of currency customization for non-US photographers.
• As a part of our dashboard redesign from a while ago—we added some high-level views of your business so you have a better snapshot when you log into Picsello. This also helps new users get started with Picsello with curated content/help when they don’t quite have any data yet.

Fixes:

• Some user experience changes to the package modal
• Photographers can now preview the client-side credits on the gallery
• Some copy changes for clarity throughout the application
• We noticed a minor bug that the cover photo was sporadically showing, this is now fixed
• A couple more minor bugfixes

Features:

• Calculator update to have your starting gross salary be $65,000
• As a part of our ethos to always keep your images secure, we have enabled password protection by default on finals and proofing galleries.
• Client order confirmation email is now more transparent with pricing and shipping information

Features:

We redesigned our navigation! As Picsello has grown and added features, we discovered we need to do a better job of helping you navigate around all of them. This includes both the top navigation as well as “hamburger menu” - tucked in the upper left, it is a great place to go to access anywhere you will need to go in your account.

Other changes:

• Updated our WHCC integration based on changes they had on their end
• New and improved package modal that is easier to use and is more transparent with information passed over to Stripe for taxes

Fixes:

• Minor fix to our Intercom integration to show that you are logged in or not

Features:

• We completely revamped how shipping is calculated in Picsello to better support your clients through WHCC

• In addition to our gallery pricing update from a few weeks ago, we now have separated galleries per client email even further. This will drive more revenue for you and be sure the client you want to have credits for uses them vs. someone else.

• For example, Grandma decides to order prints from the gallery when the intention was for your actual client to order prints using the credit you gave them.

• In proofing, it was confusing to have both favoriting and selection of photos; we have disabled client favoriting in proofing galleries only

Fixes:

• We saw a minor miscalculation in booking event slots, this is now resolved
• Updated the gallery analytics section to be displayed in your timezone vs. the timezone of our servers
• Some copy changes throughout the web app for clarity

We are excited to announce that you can adjust your gallery pricing after a shoot has been booked. This also includes:

• Adjusting the digital image “Buy them all price”
• Adjusting the price per digital image and value of print credits
• Each gallery now has its own pricing
• Ability to create multiple galleries per job to better support both school and sports photographers

Fixes:

• We tweaked some of the underlying calculations to the pricing calculator + some visual design tweaks
• Many other fixes that aren’t worthy of note!

Features:

We added a custom date picker to certain parts of the app that may feel a little more user-friendly than the one that comes with most browsers!

Fixes:

We launched a ton of upgrades to the underlying structure of Picsello. Typically these upgrades don’t mean much to you outside of security fixes and allowing our developer team to build things better and faster!

‍

Fixes:

Minor change to the pricing calculator to calculate the price per shoot/package based on revenue vs. salary

We are excited to announce you can now view who has logged into shared client galleries! This allows you to keep track of who and when client galleries are viewed. Go to a gallery overview page to check it out.

Gallery Shipping

We’ve removed gallery shipping from the base product print pricing. This also allows your clients to select the shipping speed they prefer and pay directly when ordering their gallery products!

Global Editing of Contracts

You can now edit your contracts in a singular place versus when you are creating a package. We have found this will streamline many workflows for many photographers. We appreciate your feedback!

Other additions:

• For a better user experience, your clients can now favorite photos right from the lightbox carousel instead of having to click out of it
• To better support your needs, we’ve added some new backend features that help Customer Success with responding to questions and diagnosing issues to get you back to running your business through Picsello
