You Didn't Sign Up For This

You wanted to capture memories -- not spend your evenings copy-pasting data between software.

😫

Copying Clients Between Apps

Light Blue has all your client details. GHL has none of them. You copy-paste every field by hand for every booking.

With SideKick LB

One click syncs the contact from Light Blue to GHL -- name, email, phone, address, all of it.

😤

Gallery Sharing Is a Chore

Upload images to Dropbox. Create a link. Find the client email. Write a message. Clients get a generic folder, not an experience.

With SideKick LB

Build a branded PWA gallery and publish it to Cloudflare in seconds. Client gets a beautiful link -- not a Dropbox folder.

🤯

Missed Follow-Ups Kill Revenue

Booking confirmed. Shoot done. Invoice sent. Each milestone deserves a follow-up -- but they don't happen because you're still entering data.

With SideKick LB

Every sync auto-tags GHL and triggers your workflows -- thank-you emails, reminders, and pipeline updates fire automatically.

😟

Clients Feel Forgotten

Between shoot and delivery, weeks pass with no contact. The excitement fades. They assume you're slow or don't care.

With SideKick LB

Send a real printed thank-you postcard the same day -- their image, their card, at their doorstep. 30 seconds from the toolbar.

Your Admin, Automated

Sync the shoot. Share the gallery. Trigger the follow-up. Everything happens -- without you.

🔄

Two-Way Contact Sync

Read your client's details directly from Light Blue and push them to GoHighLevel in one click. Name, email, phone, postal address -- all populated instantly. Changed an email or address in LB? Re-sync and GHL is updated. No manual searching, no copy-paste, no mistakes.

  • Reads contact data directly from the open Light Blue record
  • Compares LB and GHL data side-by-side before syncing -- you stay in control
  • Links the Light Blue shoot to the GHL contact permanently
  • Auto-tags contact in GHL -- triggers your follow-up workflows instantly
  • Updates GHL opportunity and pipeline stage on sync

Branded Client Galleries

Cloudflare-Powered

Your client gets a fast, mobile-friendly gallery they can browse, download, and even install as an app on their phone. Every gallery is independent -- publishing one never affects another.

  • One-click build and publish -- gallery live in seconds
  • PWA support -- clients can install the gallery on their phone like an app

Send a Thank-You Card in 30 Seconds

🌍 Cardly International

Your client just had a wonderful session. In 30 seconds you can send them a real, printed thank-you postcard featuring their favourite image -- it lands on their doormat days later, right when anticipation is building. Instead of silence, they feel valued. That postcard becomes a talking point with friends, a referral trigger, and proof that you're a photographer who cares. Birthday cards, seasonal greetings, or just a simple "thank you" -- one click on the toolbar.

  • 30 seconds -- pick image, add message, hit send. Done before the session ends
  • Their image, their card -- crop, zoom and preview exactly what they'll receive
  • Sticker overlays -- "Thank You", "Happy Birthday", your branding

Frequently Asked Questions

Which versions of Light Blue does it support?
SideKick LB requires a Windows PC (Windows 10 or 11). It does not run on Mac natively. Mac users can run SideKick inside a Windows virtual machine such as Parallels Desktop, but this requires a separate Windows licence.
Do I need a GoHighLevel account?
For contact sync and GHL automation, yes -- you need a GHL account with API access. The gallery builder and SD card download workflow work without GHL.
How does gallery sharing work?
SideKick LB builds a branded Progressive Web App gallery from your image folder and publishes it to Cloudflare R2 storage. You get a shareable link (e.g. gallery.yourdomain.com/clientname) that you send to your client. They can browse, download, and install it as an app on their phone. A Cloudflare account is required for gallery publishing.
Is my data safe?
Absolutely. All data flows directly between your computer and the respective service APIs (GoHighLevel, Cloudflare, Cardly, GoCardless). Nothing is stored on our servers. Your API keys are encrypted and saved locally on your machine only.
Does SideKick LB work with GoCardless Direct Debit?
Yes. GoCardless Direct Debit is fully integrated and works internationally -- UK, USA, EU, Australia, Canada & New Zealand. From the SideKick toolbar you can check existing mandates, send a setup link to your client, and let GoCardless handle all future collections automatically. No more chasing invoices.
What if I switch computers?
Your license is tied to your GHL Location ID, not a specific machine -- install on unlimited Windows devices for the same GHL Location. Export your settings from the old computer and import them on the new one.
How does the free trial work?
Start your trial through LemonSqueezy -- enter your payment details and you'll get 14 days completely free with every feature unlocked. If it's not for you, cancel before the trial ends and you won't be charged a penny. If you love it, your subscription continues automatically at £14.99/month (billed annually). You can cancel at any time from your LemonSqueezy account.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel your subscription at any time through your LemonSqueezy account. Your license remains active until the end of the current billing period.
Do I also need SideKick PS?
No -- SideKick LB and SideKick PS are separate products. SideKick LB is for Light Blue users who want to connect with GoHighLevel. SideKick PS is for ProSelect users. If you use both Light Blue and ProSelect in your workflow, both tools complement each other perfectly.
