Picvelo - client photo galleries that actually get photos delivered and chosen. I built Picvelo after watching photographers lose hours to the same broken handoff: zipping RAWs to WeTransfer, chasing clients over email for "which ones do you want retouched?", and re-exporting the same album three times. The problem I wanted to solve was the gap between shoot and delivered. Clients don't want a Dropbox link with 800 files, they want to log in, see clean previews, pick their favourites, and leave notes, all in one place. Photographers don't want to babysit that process. So Picvelo does the boring parts: - Clients log in and browse gallery previews, star selections, and leave per-photo notes - Global watermarking on previews, full-resolution originals exported as a ZIP once they're ready - Storage, upload limits, and plans that scale from a hobbyist to a busy studio - Built-in support chat so a confused client gets an answer instead of abandoning the gallery The approach evolved a lot while building it. It started as a simple upload-and-share tool, but every real photographer I talked to had the same three follow-up needs: selections, notes, and clean delivery. So the "gallery" became a small workflow instead of a folder. The watermarking, storage tiers, and team permissions all grew out of studios asking "can my second shooter upload too?" and "how do I stop people screenshotting the finals?" Would love feedback from photographers and anyone who's fought the client-delivery problem. What's the worst photo-handoff experience you've had?
