Life drawing session booking software for New Zealand.
You engage the model first and owe the fee whatever walks through the door, so easels sold is the only number that matters.

Every sitting on one timetable
A weekly untutored group, the tutored workshop and a summer weekend run go on together, so the hall and the model are booked once each.

Built for every kind of life drawing business
The Thursday untutored group
No tutor, timed poses, mostly the same faces. They claim an easel in advance rather than arriving to find every donkey taken.
A tutored figure workshop
Tutoring moves the price and changes the layout, so it runs as its own sitting with fewer easels and more space at each.
December to February
Summer empties the room for weeks. Put a smaller number of easels up and the sitting still runs without a half-lit hall.
A model the room turns out for
Certain models bring the crowd with them. Record who is engaged and at what rate, and everyone knows what they are booking.
Weekend long-pose intensive
One pose held across two days, sold as dated sittings so somebody can take the Saturday without committing to both of them.
A hall hired by the hour
The community arts centre charges for the room whether it fills or not, which is the second fixed cost to get in front of.
Boards, donkeys and a heater
What has to be out before the first pose sits in the note on the sitting, not in the head of whoever opened up that evening.
A private group for a birthday
One person books for everybody, so the quote goes out first and the model is engaged once it has come back accepted.
The evening nobody can make
The model is owed even when the room is empty. Cancel the sitting once and the easels, the money and the record follow.
A whole term in one go
A regular takes the same easel every week to the end of term, and those sittings appear ahead without being typed in again.
Made for a room where the model comes first.
The cost of the evening is settled before a single artist books, and this page is arranged around getting it covered.
Options, with Pro
Sell single sittings and a whole term of them at once, let the standing Thursday repeat on the Free plan, and send a group hire out as a quote before anyone is engaged.

Schedule
A night that either covers the model or does not
Each session shows the easels sold against the easels you have, so two days out you can see the Wednesday sitting at eleven of sixteen and decide whether to push it or pull it.
Instant booking
The easel is taken, not just intended
A regular books their place and pays for it rather than turning up out of habit, so the number in front of you on the afternoon is the number that will be drawing.

Get paid
The model fee is covered before the pose
Places are charged as they are booked, so the fixed cost of the night is met by money already taken. A private group session is quoted with the model fee itemised.
Less admin, more bookings
Made for life drawing businesses
Before the first pose is called
The day view shows the sitting, who is modelling, how many easels have gone, and what has already been paid for.
- Nobody counts boards at the doorThe number left has already taken every confirmed place into account, so whoever opens up is not doing sums with a stack of donkeys.
- Shift the evening in one movePush the sitting to another night and everybody booked onto it comes along, instead of the whole thing being entered a second time.
- Next term is already fillingStanding weekly bookings land in the future timetable on their own, which on an ordinary week is most of the easels gone before you look.
It closes when the easels run out
A hall that seats twenty draws properly at twelve. Publish twelve and a thirteenth artist cannot slip in unnoticed.
- One number in every windowWhoever is looking at the sitting, and whoever is on the door, read the same count, including two places taken inside one booking.
- No extra board behind the standA full sitting stays full. The stop is hard, and that is what keeps the sight lines and the pose worth turning out for.
- The thin evenings stay findableSittings with easels left keep showing alongside the full ones, so a quiet Tuesday is the first thing somebody comes across.
Know the number before you owe it
The model is paid the agreed rate either way, so the useful figure is how many easels have been paid for by the afternoon.
- Paid at the point of bookingPro charges the card the whole place fee as the easel is claimed, which turns a list of maybes into something you can plan the evening on.
- The ones who pay on the nightCash, and a transfer from the artist who never has any, go onto the same booking by hand on Free, dated the day they turned up.
- A group can pay in stagesOn Pro a booked group can be split afterwards on its record: something now with a due date, and the balance nearer the sitting.

Capacity that holds
The number you publish is the number that can be taken. The hall may seat more, but the sitting shuts on the last easel you set it to.
