Scheduling Photos with optional stylist - different lengths, different hosts

I’m looking to create a schedule for headshots, with the option to see a stylist. The stylist needs 10 minutes per person, but the photographer needs 5 minutes per person. So, for example:

 

Stylist is available at:

9:00 am

9:10 am

9:20 am

and so on...

 

Photographer is available:

9:00 am

9:05 am

9:10 am

9:15 am

and so on…

 

If someone books a 9:00 am slot with the stylist, then the photographer would take their photo when the stylist is finished with them at 9:10 am. But the photographer would still be available at 9:00 am and 9:05 am for those who do not need to see the stylist first. Only 9:10 am would disappear from their schedule. Is this possible to set up? I’d rather have one booking link if possible, or set up a route that asks the person if they’d like to see the stylist first. I’m not sure how to do it without it blocking the photographer’s entire 9:00-9:15 time slot.

Hi ​@78358 - Thanks for reaching out.

While there isn’t a direct way of doing this, you can try setting up a Booking Page Redirect for users booking the Stylist first. Once the event is booked, they can be redirected to the photographers page automatically. However, there is not a way to force them to choose the first available time slot, so there is a chance they’d pick one thats not right after the stylists appointment.

You can read more on redirects here: https://help.calendly.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040257613-How-to-redirect-invitees-to-another-site-after-booking

Outside of this, the only other way is to book the entire 9am-915 time slot for both the Stylist and photogropher.

Let me know if you have any questions!
