Creating Collections & Sets

In Client Gallery, you can create collections of photos and videos for your clients to view. Within each collection, you can further organize the photos into different sets. For example, a wedding collection could consist of different sets such as “Getting Ready”, “First Looks”, Ceremony”, and so on.

Create a new collection in two steps:

  1. Go to Collections and click New Collection.
  2. In the New Collection page, enter a collection name and optional event date for your new collection. If you have a collection preset ready, you can apply it to quickly apply your preferred settings.

A draft collection will be created and you can immediately begin uploading photos and videos.

 

Adding a set

Within each collection, you can further organize photos into different sets, each with an optional description to provide additional information for your clients. Sets are a great way to highlight specific moments so your client can quickly find what they are looking for. For example, photos in a wedding collection can be split into the following sets: Getting Ready, First Looks, Details, Ceremony, Reception, etc.

To create sets for a collection:

  1. View the collection from your Collections page and click +Add Set.addset.png
  2. Give your set a name and optional description, then click Save. You can now upload photos or videos to the new set, or move existing photos into it via the action bar.
  3. Repeat Steps #1-2 to add as many sets to the collection as you’d like. When your collection has multiple sets, you can re-arrange them into any order by dragging them up and down in the sidebar.

 

Can I group collections together?

If you have ongoing projects or do high volume photography that results in multiple collections related to a specific client/event, you can group them under a folder. Since folders can be shared via a single link, they are a great way to help clients review all their past collections together.

Folders also allow you to bulk create and upload collections, helping you save time and stay organized when managing larger projects or busy seasons.
