Client gallery for photographers

Client gallery for photographers that simplifies photo delivery and communication with clients

I will create a client gallery for photographers with private links, passwords, photo selection, proofing, downloading final files, and gallery management.

Sending photos via file transfer services, cloud drives, or email can be disorganized. A client gallery allows you to securely deliver photos, collect client selections, manage projects, and offer a more professional experience after the photo shoot.

Photo delivery

More professional than cloud links

The client gets their own photo gallery instead of searching for files in email or shared folders.

Proofing

Simple photo selection

The client can mark favorites, select photos for editing, and confirm the final selection directly in the gallery.

Workflow

Better project organization

The gallery can be linked with bookings, project management, clients, deadlines, and automated communication.

Client gallery features

A client gallery is not just a folder with photos

A modern client gallery allows for the secure delivery of photos, image selection, proofing, downloading finished files, access management, and continuity with the entire photography workflow.

Private galleries

Each client has their own gallery with a unique link or password.

Photo selection

Marking favorites, selecting photos for retouching, or confirming the final selection.

File downloading

Web versions, full resolution, ZIP packages, or different permissions depending on the client.

Gallery management

Administration of clients, galleries, expirations, passwords, and the status of individual projects.

Proofing gallery

The client can select photos directly in the gallery

A proofing gallery simplifies photo selection after a shoot. The client doesn't need to send file numbers by email, download previews, or deal with complex sharing. They mark the photos directly in the gallery, and the photographer has the selection clearly stored for the specific project.

It makes the most sense for portrait photography, family shoots, newborn, product projects, school photography, events, or larger galleries where the client selects final photos for editing.

What proofing can do

marking favorite photos
selecting images for retouching or editing
separating previews from finished photos
confirmation of final selection by the client
overview of selected photos in administration
notification to the photographer upon selection completion
Privacy and access

The gallery can be public, private, password-protected, or accessible only via link

Not every photo is meant for a public portfolio. A client gallery is designed for a specific client, family, business, or newlyweds. Access can be managed via a private link, password, gallery expiration, or a client account, depending on how sensitive the content is.

Private link

The client receives a unique gallery URL, which they can open without searching on the public website.

Gallery password

The gallery can be password-protected so that no one outside the client or a selected group can see the photos.

Gallery expiration

The link can be available for a limited time only, for example, until the selection is complete or after the finished photos are delivered.

Client account

For larger systems, the client can have their own login, order history, galleries, selections, and downloadable files.

Stahování fotografií

The client can download finished photos clearly from a single gallery

After finishing the edits, the photographer can make the final photos available directly in the client gallery. The client can download individual files, the entire package, web versions, or full resolution based on set permissions.

Individual photos

The client can download specific selected photos without having to download the entire gallery.

ZIP package

The entire gallery or a selected part can be prepared for download as a single file package.

Full resolution

Finished photos in high quality for printing, archiving, or professional use by the client.

Web versions

Smaller files suitable for social networks, websites, previews, or quick sharing.

Download limits

Ability to set who can download, which files are available, and whether the gallery is view-only.

Notifications

The client can receive an email stating that photos are ready for download or that the gallery is expiring soon.

Portfolio vs. client gallery

The portfolio shows work publicly, while the client gallery delivers photos privately

The portfolio is the marketing part of the website. It aims to showcase the photographer's style, bring traffic from search engines, and get new inquiries. The client gallery is a private part of the system that handles the delivery of photos to specific clients after the shoot.

the portfolio is public and serves to acquire clients
the client gallery is private and serves to deliver photos
the portfolio handles SEO, content, and work samples
the gallery handles proofing, downloading, and client access

WordPress is enough for simple galleries, Laravel makes sense for a custom client system

Simple galleries can be built in WordPress. However, if you need custom proofing, selection statuses, client accounts, link expirations, project management, a larger number of galleries, or integration with bookings, Laravel is a better choice.

Frequently asked questions about the photographer's client gallery

  • What is the purpose of a proofing gallery?

    A proofing gallery allows the client to select photos for editing, mark favorites, or confirm the final selection without sending files or dealing with complicated email communication.

    Yes. The client gallery can be accessed via a private link, password, link expiration, or another method of restricted access depending on the photographer's needs.
