Online accounting office for photographers
By Agnieszka Saladra, Certified Accountant
Shoots for private clients and businesses, events, advertising, the sale of image licences - each of these services is accounted for differently. Accounting for a photographer is not just about issuing invoices, but also the correct treatment of copyright, equipment costs and stock-site revenue. At Luno-Group we take care of this for you, so you can focus on creative work rather than on regulations.
As an accounting office for the creative sector we know that your business combines services, the sale of licences and often foreign settlements. We will compare the forms of taxation, take care of VAT and explain the differences between leasing a camera and buying it with depreciation. Our online accounting works remotely - you hand over documents through the Client panel, without office visits, from anywhere in Poland and abroad.
Wedding, portrait, event and advertising photographers who combine shoots for private individuals with serving businesses.
Videographers, filmmakers and operators settling commercial projects, copyright and the transfer of licences.
Photographers selling images on stock sites (Shutterstock, Adobe Stock) who need handling of foreign settlements and VAT-EU.
We settle shoots for private clients and businesses, events and advertising assignments - invoices, prepayments and deposits for booking dates.
We help correctly record the sale and transfer of copyright and image licences, taking into account the appropriate tax rate.
Cameras, lenses and accessories are significant costs. We will compare leasing and the depreciation of a fixed asset.
We handle revenue from Shutterstock, Adobe Stock and other platforms - foreign settlements, VAT-EU and correct recording.
We will check whether you are entitled to the subject-based exemption or must settle VAT at 23%, and match the appropriate ryczalt (lump-sum tax) rate for photographic services.
We will explain when shoots for private individuals require a cash register and help you implement it in line with the regulations.
Because we combine experience with convenience. We run our online accounting entirely remotely - you hand over documents through the Client panel and have a regular accountant within reach, without having to visit an office. We understand the specifics of the creative sector: copyright, licences, sales on stock sites and the seasonality of assignments. We serve clients in Polish or English (PL / EN), so cooperation is comfortable regardless of who and where you photograph for. With us you gain a regular, experienced accountant who explains the regulations in plain language and keeps track of deadlines for you.
Before you entrust us with your business's accounting.
It depends on the scale of income, equipment costs and the type of services. A specific ryczalt (lump-sum tax) rate for photographic services is charged on revenue, with no deduction of costs, while the tax scale and flat-rate tax take costs into account. We will analyse your situation, calculate the options and show you the numbers - the decision is yours.
Stock-site revenue usually involves foreign settlements, which require correct recording and, in many cases, registration for VAT-EU. At Luno-Group we take on this obligation - we post the payments from the platforms correctly and take care of the related declarations.
Yes. Cameras, lenses, lighting and accessories may constitute a business cost. Depending on the value and your form of taxation, we will explain the rules of one-off settlement, depreciation or leasing.
Selling services to private individuals may involve a cash register obligation once a certain limit is exceeded or depending on the payment method. We will check your case and help you implement a cash register in line with current regulations.
Deposits and prepayments for booking a shoot date require separate recording and, in the case of VAT, the issuing of a prepayment invoice. We will take care of this for you, so you have order in your documents and a correct settlement of when revenue arises.
All cooperation takes place remotely. This is online accounting - you send documents only through the Client panel, which you gain access to once the agreement is signed, and contact a regular accountant by phone, email or chat. We serve clients across Poland and abroad, in Polish or English.
