About StudioPlus Software

We are a family-owned company helping photographers run more organized, efficient, and profitable businesses.

Founded in 1995 by Matthew “Matt” Hunt, StudioPlus began as a custom software company built around one simple idea: create practical tools that help small businesses work better. Over time, our focus became clear: Photography studios needed software designed specifically for their unique workflows from scheduling and client management to marketing, invoicing, and daily operations.

That focus led to StudioPlus, and today, to Stratus — our all-in-one CRM, scheduling, marketing, and business management software for photographers.

Built by a Family. Built for Your Business.

StudioPlus has always been rooted in family. Over the years, all four of Matt’s kids have worked in the business at some point, helping support customers, improving the product, building the software, and carrying forward the company’s commitment to photographers.

As a family-owned business, we understand that your business is more than a job. It is your livelihood, your reputation, your team, and often your family’s future. That is why we take our work seriously.

We build software that helps photographers save time, stay organized, communicate with clients, manage sessions, and grow with confidence.
