Client gallery links for photographers
A photographer client gallery link should say your studio's name, not a file host. linkembed adds password or email gates so only the right people get in.
You send a client their wedding or portrait gallery, and the link has your hosting platform's domain in it - not your studio name. The work is yours; the address bar says someone else. A photographer client gallery link through linkembed wraps any gallery URL or embed in your own domain, with a password or email gate so only the right people can open it.
Photographer client gallery link: the exact problem
- Wedding and portrait clients screenshot URLs. You want those screenshots to reinforce your business, not a generic portal.
- Selects and finals should not be guessable. A light password or email allow list beats “security through obscurity.”
- You hand a QR on a print proof; it should open the same reviewed link you emailed.
What a better link experience looks like
gallery.yourstudio.com/spring-smith (example) opens to your embed or redirect, with an access step first if you need it. The page title matches the job. If the gallery provider allows iframe embedding, visitors never leave your hostname; if not, a redirect still keeps the outward link consistent.
How linkembed maps to that job
Connect a custom domain on Creator or higher (custom domains), then attach it to the link or folder. Enable password protection for a shared passphrase across the couple’s devices (how to add password protection to a link), or email protection when only @client.com inboxes should pass (how to gate a link with approved emails). Use Share to export QR for packaging (how to create a QR code for any link).
FAQ
Q: Will clients need tech skills?
A: No. They type a password or request email access, then view as usual.
Q: What if my gallery vendor blocks embeds?
A: Switch that link to redirect so linkembed hands off to the vendor page while your shared URL stays stable on the way in (Links).
Q: Can I revoke access after delivery?
A: Change the password, trim the email list, or toggle protection off and on to invalidate sessions (see email protection behavior).
Q: Is analytics useful here?
A: On paid tiers, analytics shows views or redirects with basic device info, helpful for “did they actually open the gallery?” (pricing).
Q: Free plan limits?
A: Free is tight on link count and lacks custom domains; most studios budget Creator once they ship client work weekly.
Photographer client gallery link branding needs a custom domain, available from Creator upward, with optional analytics for paid plans (pricing).
