Client Gallery updates

Video upload inside Client Gallery

Now you can upload videos straight into your Pixieset collections, allowing clients to view them and download to their own devices. Just like with photos, uploading videos into a collection is simple, fast and intuitive. You can upload videos of any size, length, and ratio, and include multiple videos inside any collection. Each video will display through a custom-built player, ensuring that your clients have a clean, elevated experience from start to finish.

To upload videos into a gallery, open a new or existing collection, click on ”Add Video”, and select your preferred method. You can either embed from YouTube or Vimeo, or upload a video from your computer.

Studio Manager updates

Online Booking and Scheduling for Studio Manager

Say hello to a new, automated online booking system for photographers, to help you stay organized and on top of all your projects. Now clients can instantly self-book a session with you online, from any device, based on your availability. Or, they can submit a request to book, if you prefer to confirm each session manually. You can also collect a full or partial session fee, as part of the booking process.
We’ve also posted a more in-depth video about the new booking features - make sure to check it out!

Log into your Studio Manager dashboard and click on the Bookings tab to start exploring these features.

Pixieset Website updates

Advanced color options for Pixieset Website

We’ve introduced powerful new color options to offer you more control over your site colors, and help you build a website tailored to your branding. Start by exploring 40 ready-made color palettes. Each comes with 5 curated color schemes that range from light to dark — that’s 200 handcrafted combinations, ready to be applied to your site immediately! You can use the predefined palettes as they come, modify any color inside, or take full control by creating custom palettes from scratch, with your own brand colors.
