For Edmonton photographers
Edmonton's dedicated photographer marketplace. Portfolio-first search, Google-verified trust scores, and a community that gets the local market — all in one place.
What you get — free
Zero commission. Zero booking fees.
Your rate is your rate. Free. Always.
Sound familiar?
On faceless gig platforms, price wins. Your best work gets buried while cheaper competitors race to the bottom. TrueNorth Frames is built differently.
Your best work is buried in the algorithm
Every new client finds you from scratch
Competitors undercut your rates with no way to show real value
Bookings scattered across DMs, WhatsApp, and emails
No platform understands Edmonton's local photography market

Everything included
Trust Score from day one
Connect your Google Business Profile in one click. Your real reputation — star rating, review count, and verification status — displayed front and centre. Clients see it before they even message you.
Portfolio-first discovery
Upload albums organised by specialty. Masonry grid on desktop, swipeable reel on mobile. Clients filter by tag or specialty — your work is what they judge, not your pricing alone.
Direct client messaging
Clients contact you through the platform. You reply directly. No middleman, no commission on anything that results. Full conversation history in your dashboard.
Service packages
List exactly what each session includes with clear pricing. Clients know what they're getting before committing — no negotiation from zero every time.
Availability calendar
Set weekly time slots. Clients book only when you're actually open. No surprise requests, no double-booking, no back-and-forth to find a date.
Automated reminders
Booking confirmations and 24-hour shoot reminders sent automatically to both you and your client. You don't chase anyone.
Trust Score
Connect your Google Business Profile in one click. Score updates automatically — not a paid badge.

Zero Spam, Zero Noise
Clients reach you through structured booking requests only. No cold spam.
Fair Market
Trust Score and badges surface quality. Your work and reputation win — not your willingness to go cheapest.
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. Creating and maintaining a photographer profile on TrueNorth Frames costs nothing. We don't charge commissions, monthly fees, or take a cut of your bookings.
What if I don't have a Google Business Profile yet?
You can still create a profile and start getting discovered. Your Trust Score will be built from platform activity and profile completeness while you set up GBP. Once connected, your Google rating and reviews go live instantly.
Can I control what appears on my profile?
You write your own bio, set your rate, upload your portfolio, and choose your specialties. The Trust Score is pulled directly from Google Business Profile and platform data — photographers can't edit it. That's the whole point.
What happens when a client messages me?
You get an email notification and an in-app notification. You reply directly through TrueNorth Frames. All conversation history is stored in your dashboard. No commission on any booking that results.
Can I hide or deactivate my profile?
Yes. You can deactivate at any time. When deactivated you won't appear in search results and clients can't message you — but your profile data is preserved so you can reactivate later.
Do you cover areas outside Edmonton?
We're focused on Edmonton, St. Albert, and Sherwood Park. If you're based nearby and regularly shoot in the Edmonton area, you're welcome to join.
