A photographer, right where you are.
Book a phone photographer by the minute. Pay them directly by UPI. Your photos never touch our servers.
How it works
From tap to shoot in minutes.
Book
Tap Instant and the nearest free photographer is alerted, or browse by rating, price, phone and style.
Shoot

Why Fotolo
Built around trust.
Your photos stay yours
Fotolo never uploads or stores photos. If your photographer shoots on their phone, photos go straight to yours over an encrypted link and are not kept on theirs.
Pay only for the time you use
