The afternoon, step by step

🖼️

1. Bring your galleries · ~20 min + upload time

Export your galleries from Pixieset, ShootProof, or Pic-Time as ZIPs, unzip, and drop the folder into our importer. Each folder becomes an album — full-resolution originals, previews generated automatically.

👥

2. Bring your clients · ~5 min

Export contacts as a CSV from HoneyBook, Dubsado, or a spreadsheet and import it on the Clients page. Name, email, phone, and notes are picked up automatically, so your address book is ready for bookings and email campaigns. Past invoices and messages stay in your old tool.

📄

3. Bring your contracts & emails · ~15 min

Paste your existing contracts and canned replies into the template editors — merge fields like {client_name} fill in automatically. Or start from our starter templates (a starting point, not legal advice).

📅

4. Point everything at Showpiece · ~20 min

Claim your handle, connect Google or Outlook calendar, connect your Square account or payment link, set your services and availability, and (on paid plans) point your own domain at your new portfolio.

Good to know: links you sent clients from your old gallery service stop working when you cancel it, so re-share the galleries you still need from Showpiece. Client favorites and past payments don't carry over.
