Key features
LENS UNO offers a user-friendly interface allowing customers to browse and select photographers based on location, expertise, and budget. Some of the key features include:
- Easy-to-use booking system;
- Powerful search engine filtered by destinations and type of photoshoot so the customers explore options at their desired locations in advance;
- Diverse pool of talented and experienced freelancers and services for different styles and budgets;
- Rating and review system that allows customers to review services which builds the credibility of freelancers;
- Messaging channel to communicate with multiple photographers at the same time;
- Secure payment system.
We believe that everyone should have easy access to affordable professional services for their photography and videography needs. Whether they are looking for a photographer to capture the special moments, or a videographer to create stunning visuals for the business; whether it is a local or a destination shoot, we have the solution that makes it easy to find and hire the perfect match for everyone’s vision, style and budget.
That is why we built the platform that stands out from traditional intermediate agencies in the photography and videography industry. Unlike common practices, we do not contract photographers and videographers ourselves and only send our contractors who pay a subscription fee to clients. Instead, we connect customers with a global network of talented and experienced professionals; our platform is open and free for everyone to join, as a customer and as a professional photographer or videographer.
We believe in the value of transparency, as it is the key to building trust and strong relationships between clients and freelance professionals. With transparency, it is possible to create space for democratizing the world of visual media, where photographers and videographers are empowered to build their careers based on quality and credibility through customers’ reviews, rather than heavily relying on interpersonal outreach and networking.
