The Problem

Creative businesses lose thousands in missed deductions every year.

You shoot weddings, portraits, and events all year. The last thing you want to do is sort receipts and figure out QuickBooks at midnight.

📸

Second shooter payments get miscategorized

Venmo and Zelle payments to contractors end up in 'Uncategorized Expense' and cost you thousands in missed 1099 deductions.

🎒

Gear purchases scattered across cards

B&H Photo, Adorama, Amazon, Best Buy, spread across business and personal cards with no clean record.

💿

Album lab and software costs lost

WHCC, Artifact Uprising, Adobe CC, Lightroom, Pixieset: dozens of subscriptions that ARE deductible but rarely tracked correctly.

📅

Tax season is a nightmare

Scrambling to reconstruct a year of transactions the week before your CPA appointment costs you money and sanity.
