Photography studios: client portal using Laravel

Summary

A client portal blueprint for photography studios built with Laravel on Ample.

Domain Schema

• Listings (reference, session_type, price_from, publishing_status, agency_id): session packages with publishing status;
• Agencies (name, location, studio_count): studios or locations;
• Galleries (listing_id, object_key, cdn_key, consent_reference): published portfolio media;
• Reports (agency_id, period, object_key, generated_at): studio booking reports;
• Document Access (document_id, principal_reference, role, granted_at): who may read which document.

Public information: session packages and pricing from, consented portfolio galleries, studio locations. Kept out of scope until handling is reviewed: client galleries before release, minors in photographs, payment details. Client galleries are private until released with consent; only consented portfolio media is public.

Technical basis verified on Laravel: a role-to-document access model with negative tests (401 without identity, 403 for the wrong role) and a private-bucket round-trip for the allowed role (private=ok).

Resource Requirements

• Primitive Compute
• Primitive PostgreSQL
• Primitive S3-Compatible Object Storage

Infrastructure Requirements

• Compute:
  Summary: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.
• Postgres:
  Summary: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.
• S3-Compatible Object Storage:
  Summary: Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.

Workflow Steps

1. Model the photography studios domain
   Create the tables listings, agencies, galleries, reports, document_access. Session packages with publishing status lives in listings; keep the sensitive classes (client galleries before release, minors in photographs, payment details) out of this schema.
2. Workflow step 1
   Model client entities and engagement periods; every document belongs to one engagement.
3. Workflow step 2
   Authorize by client entity and role before any storage access (401 without identity, 403 for the wrong client).
4. Workflow step 3
   Store documents in the private bucket and stream them through the app.
5. Workflow step 4
   Deploy and verify the negative authorization tests and an authorized download.
6. Deploy
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result. Re-running with no change is a no-op.
7. Verify
   Run the pattern self-test(s) from the example (/p/private-document-library) and your own acceptance checks for the photography studios workflow.

Examples

• Laravel pattern fixture: Verified private document library basis for this blueprint.

Success Checks

• HTTP Get: app responds on its public URL
• HTTP Get: private-document-library self-test from the example

Limitations

• The technical basis (private document library on Laravel) was verified with the pattern fixture; the photography studios schema and workflow are an original design for this blueprint and were not executed as a separate application.
• No health, financial, privacy or other compliance claim is made. Client galleries are private until released with consent; only consented portfolio media is public.
• Verified on the php-8.5 template at s-1vcpu-1gb; region, request-duration limits and other sizes are unknown or unverified.
• Managed PostgreSQL 16 only; extensions, connection limits, and backup or restore procedures are not verified.
• PutObject and GetObject with path-style addressing are verified; other S3 operations and CDN cache rules are not.

Cost Estimate

• Currency: USD
• Monthly Amount: 10.0
• Basis: size prices from pricing.toml

Evidence Summary

• Kind: canary_run
• Summary: Laravel pattern fixture deployed on Ample; the private document library checks passed.
