HoneyBook alternatives for wedding photographers

Pixally is our product, so we have put it on this list and tried to treat the others as fairly as we would want to be treated. Every fact about another product comes from that product's own website, checked October 1, 2026, and the sources are at the bottom of the page.

One thing has changed this year: since July 2026 HoneyBook delivers photos and videos in its own galleries, so "no galleries" is no longer a reason to leave it.

The alternatives

Pixally (ours, launching January 1, 2027)

Pixally is a CRM built for wedding photographers and videographers, with photo, video and hybrid gallery delivery built in. It has a free plan, then Basic, Pro and Studio at $33, $58 and $99 a month billed yearly. Second shooters and associates get their own free contractor accounts, and post-production tracking and the contractor portal are on Pro and Studio. Every paid plan starts with 50 GB of film delivery, with more in packs, and bank-transfer fees are capped at $12 on Pro and $8 on Studio. It is not available yet: if you need a CRM this season, choose from the others. How Pixally and HoneyBook compare in detail.

Dubsado

On Dubsado, Starter is $35 a month or $335 a year; Premier, which adds scheduling, automated workflows and public proposals, is $55 a month or $525 a year. The free trial is 21 days of Premier. Three extra users are free, and each extra brand is $10 a month. It has no built-in galleries: you add a link to a gallery hosted elsewhere in the client portal. Through Dubsado Payments, US cards cost 2.9% + $0.30 and bank transfers 0.8%, up to $5, the lowest bank-transfer fee we found published.
