Galleries & sharing

Themes, access control, proofing and sharing your work.

The payoff: a polished public gallery your clients and guests can browse, download from, and share — reachable by link or by scanning the album's QR code.

What guests see

Here's a real SnapFlow gallery (the Magazine theme):

A public event gallery — football

Guests get a clean, fast, mobile-friendly grid with your branding, a Download all button, and a Slideshow. It works just as well for an individual athlete's race gallery:

A brand-new gallery (before photos are added) simply shows the event title and an empty state:

Choosing a theme

In Edit → Gallery → Theme you can pick:

Classic — clean, light, grid-first.
Hero — a large lead image up top.
Dark — for dramatic, low-key work.
Magazine — editorial layout (shown above).

Controlling access & downloads

From the album settings you decide exactly what guests can do:

Public / private — make the gallery reachable by link, or keep it private.
Password — require a password before the gallery opens.
Downloads — off, web-resolution, or full-resolution originals.
Expiry — auto-hide the gallery after a set date.
Strip GPS / watermark — protect location data and deter copying.

Proofing & delivery

With Client proofing enabled, guests can heart their favourites and you get their selects back as a list (exportable to ZIP or CSV). With Finals delivery, you hand over the finished, edited set separately from the live event feed.

Two ways to share:

The link — copy the gallery URL and send it, or use Embed to drop the gallery into your own site.
The QR code — print the album's QR code (see Create an album) on a sign or card at the event. Guests scan it and they're in.

That's the core workflow
