A photo selection app that lets clients choose their own favorites
PilahFoto is a web app for client photo selection, also called client proofing. Photographers connect a Google Drive folder, set a selection limit, and share a private gallery. Clients choose photos on their phone and send the selection to the photographer through WhatsApp.
Why PilahFoto
Built for a photographer workflow that stays practical
1. Prepare a selection gallery
Use a folder for one shoot, such as a wedding, graduation, family session, or studio portrait. Connect it when creating a project and set how many photos the client may choose. Keep filenames consistent with your editing files.
2. Let the client review
Share the protected gallery link with the client. They can browse images, zoom in, and choose favorites from a mobile browser. The gallery keeps their choices together instead of scattering file numbers across chat messages.
3. Continue to editing
The client reviews the selection and sends the result to your WhatsApp. Use those filenames to locate the originals in your existing editing workflow. Agree with the client on deadlines, final delivery, and extra selections separately.
Client proofing and photographer culling serve different decisions
Choose the tool for the stage of work you need. PilahFoto focuses on the client’s choice of photos.
FAQ

Does PilahFoto select or edit photos with AI?

Can clients choose wedding photos without typing every filename?
Yes. They select favorites in the gallery and send the selection to the photographer through WhatsApp. This is useful when the client needs to choose a limited set from a larger shoot.
Is PilahFoto free?
A free trial is available. The pricing page explains the current trial quota, paid plans, and storage options. Check those terms before choosing a plan.
Can I limit how many photos the client chooses?
Yes. Set the project’s selection limit to match the agreed package. Tell clients how additional selections will be handled before sharing the gallery.
