Connect ShootCal Galleries to the ShootCal App

ShootCal uses one verified account across the scheduling web app, Galleries, and the Lightroom Classic plugin. They share the same ShootCal password and stable account identity, while each product keeps its own session cookie and product data.

Set up the connection

1. Open ShootCal Galleries and choose Continue with ShootCal.
2. Sign in with your ShootCal email and password or continue with Google. If you have only used Google before, ShootCal asks you to choose a ShootCal password once.
3. ShootCal links an existing Galleries studio by the verified account identity without losing galleries or settings, or creates a new studio if none exists. Finish any first-time studio details and accept the Galleries terms.

Use the same ShootCal email and password in the Lightroom Classic plugin. The password is verified by ShootCal and is never copied into the Galleries database.

What becomes connected

• The Galleries client picker can search clients from both Galleries and the ShootCal app.
• A client view can show bookings and contract status beside galleries, favorites, downloads, and orders.
• The web app and Mac app can create an empty, unlisted gallery draft from a client or booking.
• Galleries can automatically create a draft for each new ShootCal client when that setting is enabled.

What remains separate

Gallery photos, delivery settings, favorites, store orders, and plan billing remain in the Galleries service. ShootCal is the shared account and password authority. Google Calendar events, Google Contacts, tasks, contracts, and booking settings remain with the scheduling app. Signing out of one browser product does not delete either product's data.
