How clients pick favourite photos online for retouching

Facts as of October 12, 2026.
Yes. In a Pixiproof gallery with client selection, clients pick their favourite photos online, confirm the selection, and you get a notification with the selected list, ready for editing and delivery [2][3][6]. You get a clean, final list instead of email chains and screenshots [1].
How client selection works, step by step
- Create a gallery with client selection. Add a name, set a password and choose a plan [2][6].
- Upload the photos and publish the gallery. Your first gallery up to 1 GB is free [3][6].
- Send the gallery link to your client [6].
- The client browses the gallery and selects photos with the plus icon [6].
- While choosing, the client sees pick counts and cost in real time [3].
- The client confirms the selection and you get a notification with the selected list [3][6].
- You edit the selected photos and deliver the final files [6]. Finals download at full resolution [1].

Selection gallery or gallery without selection
Pixiproof has two gallery types: with client selection and without [2]. Selection galleries let clients mark favourite photos and videos, and Pixiproof names weddings, portraits and video work as the fit [2]. Galleries without selection share the full set right away, which Pixiproof suggests for events and fast delivery [2].
Weddings, couples and video
For wedding photographers, Pixiproof lists large galleries with intuitive access for couples and guests [4]. Browsing is full-screen with one-tap favourites, and the gallery is built to work on phones [1]. A gallery can also be downloaded as a ZIP file when you need an offline handoff [4].
Photos and video can sit in the same password-protected gallery, clients select online, and you stay in control of delivery timing [4]. More on that in photos and videos in one client gallery.
Keeping the selection moving
You can mark frames you recommend, so clients see your curated shortlist alongside their own picks [2]. If a selection stalls, PixiProof AI flags selections with no activity for days and picks without approval, with the next step to take [5].
When clients finalize their selection, the gallery can also show one bundle offer for extra photos, which they accept or decline before moving on [2]. This is optional [4].
Before you start
- A gallery password cannot be reused across two galleries on one account [3].
- Clients see previews, not full-resolution originals, and a watermark on previews is optional [7].
- Pixiproof charges 0% commission on your sales [1]. See client gallery with no commission.
- You pay per gallery when you publish it, or use a Studio subscription [3]. See pay per gallery without a subscription.
- There is no print store with lab fulfilment [1].
- Pixiproof does not import galleries from other platforms. You re-upload your files [1]. Leaving Pass? Our Pass page lists the dates Pass has published.
