Cheapest Client Gallery Software
The most affordable client gallery options for photographers in 2026, comparing free tiers and entry-level paid plans.
For a studio watching costs closely, lemon.gallery and CloudSpot both offer real free tiers, with lemon.gallery's also including a full CRM at no extra cost — often the deciding factor once a second tool would otherwise be needed.
| Platform | Free tier | Entry paid tier |
|---|---|---|
| lemon.gallery | 8GB + full CRM, free | £12/month (25GB, 0% fee) |
| CloudSpot | Storage-capped, free | Paid tiers by storage |
| Pixieset | Storage-capped, free | Paid tiers by storage |
| ShootProof | Storage-capped, free | Paid tiers by storage |
Frequently asked questions
Does a cheaper plan mean fewer features?
Usually storage is what's capped on free tiers, not core features like watermarking, favourites or checkout, which tend to work the same across plans.
