Built by a working portrait photographer — not a software company. Every feature exists because a real shoot needed it.

After the session

Choosing from a big set shouldn't take a family meeting.

The shoot was the easy part. Here's what usually goes wrong between the session and the prints on the wall — and what happens instead.

“Grandma liked the one on the porch… I think?”

One gallery, one tap.

The family browses a clean, branded gallery and selects favorites directly — no screenshots, no scrolling back through texts, no guesswork on your end.

Two hundred candids, but which go on the wall?

Green marks the prints.

A yellow circle says “we love it.” A green one says “print this one.” You get both tiers back, so the wall art and the album are settled in one pass.

Picks trickling in from three different relatives.

Selections land back with you.

However many people weigh in, every select and final lands in your studio view — organized, countable, ready to retouch.

Client galleries

A gallery that looks like your studio, not a stock template.

Your studio name and the session title sit right at the top, the family's photos 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.

Selected & finals

Two taps that tell you everything.

Tap the yellow circle on a moment you love. Once it's selected, a green circle appears for the ones headed to print — the wall, the album, the holiday card. It's the difference between “we love these thirty” and “these six are getting printed” — captured without a single text.

Send to client

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 family session.

Pro — For working photographers running a real business. A hundred galleries and as many clients as you like – five clients with twenty shoots each, or a hundred one-off sessions, your call. Keep every client in one place with notes, tags, shoot history and what they still owe you, hand finished selections straight to your retoucher, and pause billing with vacation mode between busy seasons. The tier most full-time shooters settle on.

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 does the family choose their favorites? +

They tap the yellow circle on the moments they love, and the green circle on the ones headed to print. You get both tiers back, so the wall art and the album are settled in one pass.

Can the whole family weigh in on one gallery? +

Yes. Share one link and however many people add their picks, the selections come back to you consolidated — no chasing relatives across texts.

Can I brand and lock the gallery? +

Every gallery carries your studio name and the session title, and is locked behind an access code you set before sending.

Send your next family gallery the better way.

Set up your studio, upload a set, and see how it feels to get selections back already organized.
