Chapter 5

Galleries: share the photos

All the photos of the event for the client, in sections. The client marks favourites, and those lists come back to you, ready for the album.

A gallery in the app: sections on the left, photos in the middle, sharing on the side.
  1. Sections: All, then your sections (Getting ready, Ceremony, Reception). ↑ ↓ to reorder, ✎ rename, 🗑 delete.
  2. Cover: right-click any photo to make it the cover; click the cover to set the point that always stays visible (faces).
  3. Settings: downloads allowed or not, available until (the gallery closes after that day, nothing is deleted), reminder email to the clients.
  4. Size in the cloud: “For web” (1920 px, small, fast) or “Full size” (the originals, for full-resolution downloads).
  5. Watermark: one of yours, or none. It never touches your originals.
  6. ↑ Upload: the first time with an optional PIN; afterwards only new or changed photos go up, counted in a blue box (“12 photos to upload”). Thumbnails of files you changed update themselves.
  7. Photos: drag to reorder or onto a section to move them. Order, sections and removals reach the client at once.
Which size should I choose before uploading? Right above ↑ Upload, under Size in the cloud: You don’t need to export for web first: drag in your photos as they are, at full resolution, and the app makes the web copies itself (with the watermark, if you chose one) and keeps a copy of them on your computer too. Your originals never change. Set the default for new galleries in ⚙ Settings › General › Galleries; each gallery remembers its own choice.

Large view and removing photos

Space: the photo large, with the rule of thirds, Photoshop and Show in folder.
Remove: the photos leave the gallery; with the tick, their files also go to the Recycle Bin.

Add photos

After the upload

The link is ready. The app offers to email the client, in the client’s language.

Copy the link (or click 👁 to see it as the client), or let the app send the invitation email. New link stops the old one at once.

As soon as a client opens the gallery, its card shows “👁 Viewed” (with the number of clients when more than one); hover it to see who and when.
