12img gives you contracts, CRM, and automation that ShootProof doesn't.
ShootProof is one of the longest-running client gallery platforms for photographers. It specializes in gallery delivery and print sales through print lab integrations. It includes contracts and invoicing on all plans. However, it lacks video delivery, intake forms, and the full lead-to-delivery pipeline.

The most common reasons photographers make the move.
ShootProof has no contracts or e-signatures — you still need HoneyBook or Dubsado for that. 12img includes contracts built-in.
No client portal or CRM. Client communication stays scattered across email, text, and DMs.
No automated workflows. Every reminder, follow-up, and delivery notification is manual.
ShootProof's interface has not been significantly updated in years. 12img is built on modern technology (Next.js, React) with a premium user experience.
12img offers a more complete solution. While ShootProof excels at gallery delivery and print sales, 12img adds contracts, invoicing, client portals, automated workflows, video delivery, and a vendor directory — all in one platform.
No. ShootProof does not include contracts or e-signature functionality. Photographers using ShootProof typically need a separate tool like HoneyBook or Dubsado for contracts. 12img includes contracts with e-signatures on all paid plans.
ShootProof ranges from $8.33 to $26.67/mo (annual). 12img ranges from free to $54/mo. While ShootProof includes contracts and invoicing, 12img adds intake forms, the full lead-to-delivery pipeline, AI content generation, and video delivery.
Yes. 12img includes a storefront with print ordering capabilities. You can also sell digital products like presets and LUTs — something ShootProof does not support.
Galleries, contracts, invoicing, and CRM — one platform, one login, one monthly bill.
