Getting Started with Photo and Video Galleries
ShootCal Galleries gives photographers and videographers one branded place to deliver full-resolution photos and video originals. Photos support favorites, notes, and Lightroom Classic publishing; videos appear separately with gallery playback up to 1080p. Gallery delivery and print ordering are live, and White House Custom Colour (WHCC) produces and drop-ships print-store orders under your brand after you complete the store setup.
1. Create your ShootCal account
Sign up once with ShootCal. Enter your photographer and studio names, verify your email, choose the ShootCal URL clients will see, and accept the Galleries terms. ShootCal creates the Free Galleries studio under the same stable identity and password. There is no second Galleries registration. If you already have a Galleries studio, it is linked without losing galleries, settings, its permanent address, or its current plan. Galleries keeps its own studio terms and product data. See Using one account for the app and Galleries.
2. Create a gallery
Create it in Galleries, or use Create gallery from a linked client's page in the ShootCal app. Galleries are never created automatically, and new galleries begin unlisted.
3. Add and organize photos and videos
Upload JPEG photographs in the browser, or install the Lightroom Classic publish plugin. On Plus and Pro, use Upload video for MP4, MOV, or WebM files. 4K originals remain available to download while gallery playback adapts up to 1080p. Photos and videos appear separately in the client gallery. See Upload, organize, and manage photos and video.
4. Send the gallery
Use Send & Share to copy the client link and PIN or send a template-based delivery email. When downloads are enabled, clients receive the original JPEG photographs and the full-resolution video originals. See Sharing galleries, downloads, and delivery email.
5. Collect favorites
Clients heart photographs, add per-photo notes and an overall message, and send the selection without creating an account. Copy the resulting filename list back into Lightroom. See Client favorites and proofing.
