In-Person & Online Photography Sales (IPS) Software
In-person sales (IPS) software helps a photographer sell prints during a reveal session, in the studio or over a video call, using the same price sheet as the online gallery.
In-person sales, usually shortened to IPS, is a reveal-and-sell session where the photographer sits with the client, in the studio or over video, and sells prints on the spot rather than emailing a gallery and hoping they buy later. Portrait, family and school photographers lean on this heavily, since the average order value tends to run higher than sales left to happen online alone.
What IPS needs from software
- The same price sheet used online, so pricing stays consistent either way.
- A way to check out a client immediately, on the spot.
- Print fulfilment that kicks off the moment payment clears.
Running IPS through lemon.gallery
Because galleries, price sheets and checkout are the same system whether a client buys online or with you sitting beside them, an IPS session works from the same gallery you'd otherwise send by email — you just walk them through it live and check out on the spot.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need separate software for in-person sales?
No — the same gallery and price sheet used for online sales works for an in-person session; you're simply present while the client browses and buys.
Can I use IPS over a video call?
Yes — share your screen or send the gallery link and walk through it together, then check out the same way.
