A Pixpa alternative for photographers
Pixpa is the budget pick when you need a portfolio website, galleries, a store, and a blog on one subscription. Plans start at about $4.80 a month, with 0% commission. That number was checked in October 2026.
It is the wrong pick if you need a real booking calendar and a client CRM. That is the gap Proof is for.

Where Pixpa wins
- A real portfolio website for less than a gallery subscription elsewhere.
Where Proof wins
- Booking, retainers, a client book, and photo sales. Pixpa is not that tool.
Questions
Does Proof include a portfolio website?+
No. Proof gives you a booking page, client galleries, and a studio page on the Studio plan. It is not a website builder.
Start with a real gallery.
The free plan delivers galleries, and it does not ask for a card. Booking, retainers, and invoices start on Solo.
