Cosh Photography – Very user friendly.. highly recommended
Posted on 11. Jan, 2011 by Luke in Testimonials
Having our photo cart hosted by a third party and paying substantial monthly fees, we were keen to find a cost effective alternative and luckily stumbled upon Photography Orders.
We upload a large amount of data, so I was a little worried about upload times- but I have found the program is quick to upload and watermark images. It was installed onto my website by Luke the very next day and he was kind enough to answer all my questions and requests quickly. I also like that it is very user friendly for my clients, guiding them through the ordering process simply. I highly recommended it.

Announcing Photography Orders Hosting
Posted on 11. Jan, 2011 by Luke in Latest news
With the release of v1.4.1 of Photography Orders, we’re also announcing we’re bringing back our hosting plan.
While Photography Orders is simple software, it does some heavy lifting behind the scenes, especially when it’s uploading and resizing images.
Because of this, a lot of the hosting plans that Photography Orders used to work on, will no longer be able to support Photography Orders.
We’ve created a hosting plan that allows for unlimited photos and unlimited galleries so that you don’t have to worry about if Photography Orders will work on your web host. The hosting plan is finely tweaked for Photography Orders, and because we work with so many photographers, you won’t get support that makes you want to slap your head.
To ease the transition from your existing account to a Photography Orders hosting account, we’re offering free migrations – that is, we’ll get your site off your existing host, and set it up for you for no extra cost.
The introductory price is $30/month. You can cancel at any time, however if you leave in the first 12 months, you can’t take Photography Orders with you. After 12 months, the license is fully yours, the same as if you’d bought it outright.
Happy Snapping!

A big thank you + upcoming features
Posted on 22. Sep, 2010 by Luke in Latest news
Firstly, thank you to everyone who has helped give direction on our new Uservoice Forum, by voting on upcoming features. It’s great to have customers that are willing to help improve the product for everyone.
I’d like to make a quick announcement that based on the feedback, we’ve started development on the coupons feature. Photographers will be able to enter fixed price or percentage based discounts, that customers can claim when they are checking out.
The current plan is to release it in the next 2-4 weeks. Stay tuned…
We want your feature ideas!
Posted on 12. Sep, 2010 by Luke in Latest news
Lately, improving Photography Orders has fallen to the wayside. As you might know, Photography Orders is a product that we’ve developed as a web design and development firm, VDP Websites. Lately, we’ve been very busy building websites for clients, and just haven’t had the time to devote to Photography Orders.
Not anymore! We’re hiring a developer who will be dedicated to improving Photography Orders.
What it means to you is that Photography Orders is going to get new features.
Your chance to get a say in what happens
As a photographer, you know better than most how we can improve Photography Orders. So we’ve setup a way for you to recommend and vote on features you’d like to see.
It’s easy, just go to http://photographyorders.uservoice.com and start voting!
Installation just got easier
Posted on 12. Sep, 2010 by Luke in Latest news
We’re constantly trying to make Photography Orders a better product for photographers.
As part of that, we’ve just updated our install process to cut out a few steps and make it easier.
Instead of messing around updating files, there’s now an install script that does all the configuration for you.
Here’s a screenshot:

We hope this new addition makes installation easier for our new customers.

How to: Change the look and design of Photography Orders
Posted on 23. May, 2010 by Luke in How tos
It’s important for your branding to be consistent. Your design should look the same in all your materials – your brochures, business cards, website, and of course, shopping cart.
Now with the latest version (1.4) of Photography Orders, you can easily change the way it looks.
Here’s a video demonstration of me using the new features for going from the default (new) Royal Dark theme, to a red design.
