How to Send a Photo Gallery to a Client
Step by step: creating a gallery, setting access, and sharing the link so a client can view and download their photos.
- Create a new gallery and give it a clear title, usually the client's name and shoot type.
- Upload the finished images, either from the web or directly from Lightroom Classic.
- Choose a cover style and gallery theme to match your brand.
- Set any access controls — password, email gate, or a download PIN.
- Publish the gallery and copy the link to share by email.
The client opens the link, enters whatever access detail you've required, and browses their photos directly — no account or app needed on their end.
Frequently asked questions
Can I preview a gallery before the client sees it?
Yes — an unpublished gallery is visible only to you, so you can check everything before making it live.
