Selection your clients finish in one sitting.
Upload the gallery and email the link and the access code to your clients. They select the contenders and mark the finals — in just two rounds, using two buttons and then the third one – to finalize the selection. You will be notified by email automatically.
Set up your first gallery in minutes · Your clients never sign up · Simple and friendly interface
Built by a working portrait photographer for photographers. All the features were honed in a real workflow to make it easier for all parties.
It's not always possible to select the finals right after the shoot.
And yet you want it to be done as fast as possible. For that purpose, all possible obstacles were removed. No fancy five-star rating system, no emails back and forth – a simple two-stage selection engine even a six-year-old can understand.
One link – one gallery.
Clients receive a link to a branded gallery and select contenders directly – simple and straightforward.
Green marks the final.
A yellow circle says “maybe.” A green one says “this is the one.” You get both tiers back, so the final pick is unmistakable.
Selections land back with you.
One client or a whole team — every select and final is waiting in your studio view, organized by person and ready to retouch.
A gallery that looks like your studio, not a stock template.
Your studio name and the shoot title sit right at the top, the client's headshots fill the screen, and an access code you set keeps it private. Send the link and they're in — nothing to download, works on any phone.
Two taps that tell you everything.
Tap the yellow circle to select a frame. Once it's selected, a green circle appears for the final — the one headed to LinkedIn, the website, the reel. It's the difference between “these three are close” and “this is the one” — captured without a single email.
From “ready” to “in their inbox” in one click.
Hit send and your client gets the gallery link, the access code, and a short note in your words — with your contact line at the bottom. Edit the default message once and reuse it for every booking.
A full shoot, loaded for proofing in minutes.
Photos are optimized for screen as they upload, so even a big team shoot opens instantly for your clients — and you skip the export-a-web-sized-copy step entirely. Originals stay untouched on your drive.

Questions photographers ask
Do my clients need an account? +
No. You send a link and an access code — they open the gallery in any browser and start picking. Nothing to install, no sign-up, no friction between them and the photos.
How do clients choose their headshot? +
They tap the yellow circle to select the contenders, and the green circle to mark the final — the one they'll actually use. You get both tiers back, so the final pick is unmistakable.
Does it work for team or corporate shoots? +
Yes. A whole team can pick from one gallery, and everyone's selects and finals come back organized so you can retouch each person's final without the email chase.
Can I brand and lock the gallery? +
Every gallery carries your studio name and the shoot title, and is locked behind an access code you set before sending.
