Pixieset Acquires Leading Provider of WordPress Themes for Photographers and Creatives

Vancouver’s Pixieset has acquired Los Angeles-based Flothemes, a premium WordPress website designer for photographers, and other creative businesses.

Pixieset is an all-in-one SaaS platform that offers a range of solutions including client galleries, websites, online stores to help photographers and other creatives manage their workflow.

As part of the acquisition, Flothemes Founder Ross Tanner has joined Pixieset’s leadership team as Director of Design & Business Development.

Named one of Canada’s Fastest-Growing Companies in 2020, Pixieset’s mission is to equip and inspire every creative on their journey towards running their own photography business.

Since the launch of Pixieset in 2013, more than 600,000+ photographers have used the company’s innovative solutions and platform to deliver photos to clients, showcase their work, sell prints, and market their business online.

With the acquisition, Flothemes’ designs and company operations will fully integrate into the Pixieset umbrella, while maintaining existing service levels and offerings to its community of 40,000+ photographers and creative business owners globally.

Together, the companies will continue to build an all-in-one platform to provide every photographer a beautiful, easy-to-use website that seamlessly integrates with all their automations and workflow.

“This acquisition enables Pixieset to enhance and strengthen the products and solutions we offer to our growing client base of 600,000+ as we expand across the broader photography industry,” said Pixieset Co-Founder and CEO Simon Wong.

“We look forward to harnessing the expertise of Flothemes’ experienced team and working together to continue scaling the website design tools and offerings of the Pixieset platform.”

“Flothemes is honored to announce the next chapter for our community. We are excited about the possibilities this partnership brings not just to our company and clients, but for all aspiring creatives, as we work to build a powerful platform to service various design and business needs,” said Ross Tanner.
