Private event galleries,
released when you are ready.
Keep photos out of sight until you publish on your own switch or schedule, then decide exactly who gets in and which albums they see.
Nothing is visible until
you decide it should be.
Not every gallery is meant for everyone, and not every gallery is meant to go live the moment the first photo lands. These are the controls that make that true.
Publish on your own schedule
The event stays unpublished until you say otherwise, on a switch you flip yourself or a date and time you set in advance.
Public, private, or opened with a PIN, album by album
Choose each album's access when you create it: visible to every guest, kept for you alone, or opened only for a guest who enters the PIN you share.
Decide who gets in, and review what guests add
Ask guests to register or check them against a pre-approved list before they see anything, and turn on approval so photos guests upload wait for your review first.
You set the walls; the
gallery stays behind them.
Privacy here is a setting you choose once per event and per album, not something guests can work around. Here is what changes on each side.
For you, the organiser
Build the gallery in private
Upload and organise photos while the event stays unpublished. Nothing is visible to a guest yet.
Publish when you are ready
Flip the switch yourself, or set a date and time in advance so the event goes public on schedule without you at a screen.
Set access album by album, and event-wide
Mark each album public, private, or secret behind a PIN, and add registration, a pre-approved guest list or an event PIN across the whole gallery.
For your guests
Guests reach the event once it unlocks
By link or QR code, once you have published the event or shared the PIN that opens it.
They register or wait for approval, if you ask for it
Where registration or a guest list is required, guests sign in or wait to be approved before they see photos.
They find their own photos with a selfie
Once the gallery, or the album, is open to them, a selfie brings up the photos they are in.
Privacy matters most where
not every photo is for everyone.

Privacy questions organisers ask us.
Can I keep the whole event hidden until I am ready to share it?
Can some albums stay private while others are open to everyone?
Can I put a PIN on the whole gallery, not just one album?
Can I control who is allowed to see the gallery at all?
Can I check photos before guests see them?
Do guests need an account or an app to open a private gallery?
Publish your next gallery
exactly when you choose.
Start on the free plan and keep your first event private until you are ready.
