Album picker

The client picks the photos for the printed album from their gallery, places them on spreads and sends them to you. You design the album, send it back for review, and move it on to printing.

Your album, spread by spread

Set up an album

  • Make it from a gallery: a title, a size (12x36, 12x30, 10x30, 12x24, 10x24, 8x24 inches, or your own), 1 to 200 spreads, and the least and most photos if you want limits.
  • Send it to the client on WhatsApp, or copy the link. If WhatsApp is not available, you get a WhatsApp link with the message filled in to send from your phone.
  • Anyone with the link can follow the album. The client gets a one-time code to pick and approve. If they cannot get one, you pick and approve for them.

How the client picks

  1. Pick: the gallery grid with its sets. A tap adds or removes a photo; the counter reads, for example, "48 of 60 picked".
  2. Arrange: spreads 1 to N. Each photo has a spread menu and earlier and later buttons; on a computer, photos can be dragged. "Place the rest for me" spreads the unplaced photos evenly.
  3. Send: a note for the designer, then a confirmation. The least and most are checked here.

Every change saves itself, so the client can stop and come back later.

Design, review and print

You see the picks in order with spread numbers, thumbnails and the original file names. "Copy file names" copies one line per photo with its spread number for the designer.

The album moves from submitted to designing, client review, approved or changes asked for, printing and delivered. In client review the client sees their picks spread by spread and approves or asks for changes with a note. You can reopen picking when needed.

Questions

Can the client see the designed album?

Not inside the platform yet. In client review the client sees their picks spread by spread; send the design PDF on WhatsApp alongside.

Can an editor run albums?

Yes. Making, changing, moving and sending albums needs the galleries permission, which editors have.
