You don't need more leads.
You need fewer bad ones.
Every request here arrives scoped and priced — shoot type, city, hours, cameras, and a budget the client has already seen. The “so how much is a video?” conversation happens before it reaches you, not on the phone with you.
Being in it is free, and stays free for anyone who joins while it is. It is also new — there are not many of us in here yet. That is the argument for being early, not a reason to wait.

Scoped and priced before they reach you
Every lead arrives structured — shoot type, city, coverage, cameras, add-ons, and a budget estimate. No vague “how much for a video?” DMs, no bidding pile-on.
- You pick the cities and shoot types you cover
- Accept only what fits — pass on the rest, always free
- On accept, the client’s contact unlocks to you exclusively
Two things worth knowing before you list. Leads are a pull, not a push — we do not send mail yet, so a new lead waits in your account until you open it. And clearing your coverage stops leads, it does not widen them: blank matches nothing, and an explicit “any” is the wildcard.
How pros get work
start free · exclusive acceptList for free, and matched, priced leads land in your inbox. Accept one to exclusively unlock the client — then you book and bill them direct.
Put instant budgets on your own website
One script tag. A visitor describes their shoot, sees a calibrated budget without leaving your site, and the enquiry lands in your inbox — a lead source and a backlink in a single tag.
<script src="https://videographer.com/embed.js" data-pro="YOUR_LISTING_ID" async></script>
The widget prices through the same engine as this site, so the number your visitor sees is the number we would have shown them here. Your listing id goes where the placeholder is; your account prints the finished line once you have listed.
A lead that comes through your widget is yours exclusively — it is never routed to the three-videographer matching pool. See the live widget →
Where a widget lead goes
one tag · your inbox onlyA visitor prices their shoot without leaving your website, and the enquiry lands in your inbox only — a widget lead is never routed to the matching pool, so nobody else sees it.
Showcase your best — and keep every booking
Scoped, already-priced requests from clients who have seen a budget — free to receive, free to accept, and free to pass on. When a client books, you bill them directly — no commission on your shoot.
Free. The paid things are services.
Listing and leads are free. The only things you can buy are work we do for you — and none of it changes who gets a lead.
Everything you need to get matched. No card, no subscription.
- Matched leads in your inbox, scoped and already priced
- At most 3 videographers see a lead; first accept takes it
- Public profile + do-follow backlink
- Listed in the Videographer.net directory
- The embeddable budget widget for your own site
- The second-shooter network — crew up, or get hired as crew
- Keep 100% of the booking — no commission
Free is not a teaser rate. If a paid tier is ever added it will be something new, not a charge for what is free today — and nobody is charged retroactively for what they already had free.
