Try the tools first. Sign up if it works.
Three things we built for the way working photographers actually work, and left open for anyone, signed up or not.
Accreditation generator
Press-pass request emails in Coda's house format. Fill in the blanks, copy, send. About 1 in 3 lands.
Rate calculator
Five questions. A fair range based on European market data, gig type, and where you sit on the career curve.
Festival map
Every European festival, with dates and locations. Filter by country and month, then start the request early.
How matching works · ± 8 min to sign up
One brief out.
One photographer in.
A brief comes in: venue, artist, date, budget, deliverables. We match on genre, city, gear, day-rate and track record. Invited photographers get the offer first, first yes takes the gig, the invoice flows through Coda. Your byline stays on the file.
You
Name, city, website, Instagram. Your real name on every credit.
Work
Genres (music, sport, fashion, brand…). Upload 6 to 12 images or paste a URL.
Logistics
Gear, travel radius, language, available dates.
Rates
Day-rate range. We'll suggest one with the rate calculator if you're unsure.
From recent work
Real frames, real bylines.
FAQ
Things people ask first.
No fee to sign up or to receive work. Coda takes 15% on the publication side when a brief converts to a paid shoot. You see the gross and the net before you accept.
No. You keep your own roster, your direct clients, and your full rate card. Coda work is additive: match what fits, pass on the rest.
