For wedding and event photography studios in India
One place your studio’s work runs through.
Centra is the software a wedding or event studio runs on, from first enquiry to final delivery: three apps that share one record of every job.
Already on Centra? Open your studio. New studios join by invitation for now.
Built for the way wedding studios in India work.
Centra is for the whole studio: the owner, the sales and accounts team, the people who run the shoot, the crew, the editors and the client. It was built alongside a working wedding studio, around the habits the trade already has.
One number
A quote is a single negotiated sum, not a menu of packages. The coverage, crew and deliverables it buys are written down behind it.
Days, not a date
A wedding is several days of sessions in different places, sometimes two at once. The schedule holds every day, place and session.
GST as it is billed
Tax invoices split into CGST and SGST, or IGST, by place of supply. Receipts follow each payment.
Crew on their phones
Photographers and editors get a call sheet, their schedule and their own pay. They never see a project’s finances.
Footage has a holder
Every drive and card is on a register with who has it, from the shoot to the edit to the archive.
The client in one place
Proposal, agreement, payments and deliveries sit behind one portal link, with a separate link for each family member you add.
From the first enquiry to the final delivery.
One job carried through six stages. The days, crew and deliverables agreed in the proposal are the ones written into the agreement, the project and the edit schedule.
Enquiry
A lead is logged with the occasion, dates, places and guests. The client can fill in a guided intake from a link, and every call and note stays on the lead.
Studio, Team
Proposal
The quote becomes a proposal with its coverage, crew, deliverables and payment schedule. You share it and record the client’s yes.
Studio, Team
Agreement
The agreement is drafted from the accepted proposal. The client signs, the studio records the signature, an owner counter-signs, and the project is created with its milestones.
Studio, Team
Shoot day
Crew open their call sheet. The person running the shoot works from a live tracker: segments, shot lists, check-ins and broadcasts the crew acknowledge.
Team
Post-production
Footage is handed over with a record of who holds it. Each deliverable gets an editor, a working date and the date promised to the client.
Team
Delivery
The client reviews each cut on the portal, leaves notes and approves the final. Final files are released against the last payment.
Client portal, Team
Money runs alongside every stage: payment milestones, invoices, receipts and crew payouts.
Three apps, one for each seat.
Everyone works on the same record and sees only their part of it. An owner sees the money. A photographer sees the call sheet. The client sees what is theirs.

How a studio gets started.
A studio needs no domain of its own and nothing installed. Each studio gets a studio page at centra.studio/s/<studio> with its name and logo, where everyone can find their app.
We set up your studio
Its name, its short name, its logo and the owner’s Google account. There is no sign-up form yet.
The owner signs in
The owner signs in to the Studio app with Google and adds what only the owner knows: GST details, bank details and who signs.
The owner adds the team
Each person gets an emailed invitation. They sign in with Google or an emailed code, and see the rooms their role opens. There are no passwords to hand out.
Clients are invited too
When a job is booked, the client and the family members you add each get an invitation to the portal.
Access is by invitation for now
There is no sign-up form yet: Centra sets up each studio by hand and invites its owner directly. There is no public contact address yet. If your studio is already on Centra, open it from here.
