Pricing
Free to start. Pay for the magic, not the seats.
Best Memories is free to set up, free to retouch, and free to AI-style every photo — with a “Powered by Best Memories” watermark. Pay only to go white-label (watermark-free): per photo from a prepaid balance, or a monthly plan if you shoot often. Switch any time.

AI styling is free with our watermark. Pay only to go white-label.
Every photo can be AI-styled for free with a “Powered by Best Memories” watermark — no subscription, no card. Want white-label galleries (your branding, no watermark) for just one event? Top up a prepaid balance and pay per photo only for the watermark-free versions (from $0.03 each). Turn on auto-refill and a busy night never stops mid-event — when your balance runs low we top it up from your saved card, capped at a daily limit you set.
7-day free trial on Pro — we collect your card at checkout, but you're not charged until the trial ends. Cancel any time during the trial. Studio is on a waitlist while we onboard the first cohort.

Pricing questions
What's actually free?
Creating an account, creating event galleries, free retouch, and AI styling are all free — no card required. Free AI photos carry a “Powered by Best Memories” watermark. You only pay to go white-label (watermark-free).
How do I get watermark-free photos?
Two ways. Pay per photo from a prepaid balance — watermark-free versions start at $0.03 each (varies by AI model), with auto-refill so a busy night never stops. Or subscribe to Pro ($49/mo) for a monthly batch of watermark-free photos included.
Do I need a subscription?
No. Hosts and one-off shooters can run entirely free (with the watermark) or pay per photo to go white-label. Pro ($49/mo) and Studio ($149/mo) are for photographers who shoot often — they bundle in a monthly batch of watermark-free AI photos plus white-label galleries, custom domains, and gallery emails from your own address.
Can clients pay me through Best Memories?
Yes — every account's public page can take real bookings: clients pick a package, reserve the date with a deposit, and settle the balance through the same payment link. Connect your own Stripe account and payouts go directly to you; we don't take a cut of your bookings.
How much does a pro-run event cost?
If you'd rather have a vetted photographer bring a booth or full camera coverage and run the night, quotes are custom — typically $500–$1,500 depending on coverage, hours, guest count, and travel. Drop your city and date on the hosts page and you'll hear back within 24 hours.
