PhotoShelter for Photographers Reviews

Photoshelter is a competitive package because it offers very useful features like photo storage, editing tools, and even gives video lectures on getting sales etc.

the best feature I like about it is its how it organizes files, it makes files so organized that searching them is easy and very accessible.

I like the way its interface works but eventually cost comes in between which is too costly for such a work.

also, it takes a lot of time while uploading multiple files at a time, which makes this part boring.

The very large storage capacity and easy to use interface. Adding new users is quick. Uploading is easy and the settings for public or private collections is straight forward.

It doesn't allow for pre-packaged ZIP files. Sometimes the search tool doesn't always work, but I get around that by using subject folders.

As a photo resource provider, this has become a massive time-saver! People can do their own searches and downloads from amongst the thousands of images we have available.

I like how easy and quickly you can share photos.

I dislike how many people are not using photo shelter!

It’s easy to create an account, add administrators to also add photos, and then it is easy and very quick to share these photos.

.Very easy to use and does not require much effort on the users side

I can’t think of any because I’ve only recently started to use it

Very easy to use and many people know of it in my company

PhotoShelter provides a lot of features to make photography business simple. It provides a simple path from clicking pictures to showing to selling. Some features like cloud storage and using your own domain name is amazing.

Setup is easy and also provides responsive websites for our photography eCommerce business. Uploading various image formats and also having a image security by adding watermarks.

I have used its trial version and found it amazing for photography business. But at the same time I find it too much expensive for any of its plan. Storage capacity for basic plan should be little higher and with the accordance with the monthly charges. I think it should have also a beginner plan.

I can send a link to clients to view and download images. I can also manage the galleries to have passwords, not allow downloads and monitor the emails that can view the photos.

There is nothing I dislike about PhotoShelter at this time.

Making photography easy access to clients for viewing and downloading or proofing before prints are made.

I like the ability to archive photos in different albums, an unlimited storage of files, as well as the ability for photographers to showcase their beautiful work and attract new clientele and inquiries. This allows them to further establish and grow their photography business. It is also very convenient to be able to retrieve your photos all in one place, easily, on the go, through the app.

I dislike the fact that there aren't many different templates to choose from when designing your personal website through their site. It can also be a bit time-consuming for a new-user to learn all of what this app has to offer, and to go through a tutorial learning how to use this application.

Photographers can profit by using this application/website by listing their photographs and work for sale. This application also includes a feature to batch metadata, as well as a unique functionality to append or replace. You can also assign access to specific users in which you have given authority to.

This is perfect for managing client orders, as photographers can sell their prints, downloads, photo-packages, etc. The other added benefits is that it gives you the option to watermark your images. This application is also affiliated with Paypal, etc, allowing the photographer to get paid.

PhotoShelter allows you to easily organize photos and then it is super easy to find them. With tags, folders and more, it has saved a ton of time when searching for photos.

I wish the photos would automatically organize in chronological order and alphabetical order. It would be nice to switch back and forth on the front of the website.

DO IT! It will save you time and your photos will be SO organized.

We're able to sell photos, which is something we haven't been able to do in the past. We're also able to send links to certain departments and organizations allowing them to download their photos. It is much faster and more organize than doing it on DropBox.

Lots of helpful materials for beginners, amazing quality and customizable templates, eCommerce features and topped with a 14 day free trial that lets you test out before actually buying it ( which you'll definitly end up doing after exploring how amazing Photo Shelter is )

What I dislike is the limited cloud storage available, especially for professional photographers

The eCommerce solution allows me to set up an online shop with an integrated shopping cart made EXCLUSIVELY for photography, it lets me accept orders in 23 global currencies and the ability to ship WORLDWIDE.

Fast uploads, easy to use admin interface, Lightroom plugin to upload photos directly to Photoshelter, tagging features and client download/purchase system, all well thought out and work extremely well. Actually, like most everything about the system. It has met my needs for a professional photography portfolio website as well as a method to distribute (and sell) digital photos to clients and of events.

More flexibility in designing my Photoshelter website, would like to add additional pages with free form design. Would like the ability to customize the site more, it's ok now, but more customization features and more website templates would be very helpful and welcome.

Would recommend trying the system out to see how you like it. If you like the way it looks, you'll confirm whether you like how it works throughout the trial. Upload a few different shoots, tag them, customize them and see how they look in the admin and how they look to clients. This way you can make an informed decision.

Three specifically: 1- a photography portfolio website 2- a way to provide clients ability to purchase or download digital images with flexibility in pricing and coupons 3- a way to promote the photography business and keep a portfolio updated at the same time. All three have been very helpful and why I chose Photoshelter over other systems to keep everything on one system and simple and straightforward as possible.
