A Wix alternative for photographers: connect your website, sessions and galleries

📷 What do you want to simplify by leaving Wix?

Start with your most recently completed assignment. Where did the inquiry arrive? Where are the quote, the client’s choices and the delivered images? These answers show what your new tool needs to bring together beyond the homepage.

Wix offers a website builder, contact tools, a store and booking. Pelli’s value lies in its organization around the photographic assignment: the person contacting you becomes a record to follow, then a client to whom you present and deliver images.

Your comparison becomes more precise when you choose three frequent tasks. For example: receive a family inquiry, prepare its quote and collect ten photos for editing. Look at where each detail appears and what you still have to copy.

Pelli lets you offer prints within the gallery your client has just explored, using partner labs. You also keep editing feedback on the images: a visual annotation shows the exact area concerned. These tools extend your website into the work and sales after the session.

An inquiry becomes a record to follow

On your Pelli website, you can present services on separate pages. A family page explains your approach, the session and delivery. Visitors then find a contact route consistent with what they have just discovered.

Submitting the form creates or updates the CRM contact and adds a task containing the message. You find the inquiry in your workspace. Then add the details you obtain and prepare the session documents.

That connection helps when inquiries arrive during shoots. The message stays associated with an action to handle, even if you prepare the quote the next day. You retain the context instead of beginning by reconstructing the conversation.

✨ Example: a family session with ten final images

A family discovers your offer online and contacts you for an outdoor session. You clarify location and availability, then prepare a quote specifying ten edited images. The quantity stated on the page, document and selection instructions remains consistent.

After the session, you prepare a gallery of images to choose from. In Pelli, you set the selection limit and decide whether clients can exceed it. The client confirms favorites using the send button; you receive the selected photo list by email.

You can enable comments to collect a request on an image. Once finishing is complete, you adapt downloads for delivery. Your client gallery therefore supports the assignment’s different stages.

Do you need to rebuild the whole website at once?

First prepare the pages that actually sell your sessions: main services, about and contact. Keep useful text and images, then check links already used in messages or professional profiles.

Before switching the public address, open every page on a phone and send an inquiry through the form. Also check the domain and any email addresses with your current provider. Connecting the website does not itself transfer your other services.
