Iris Gallery FAQ's

What is Galleries?

Galleries is Iris’s new client gallery tool, built right into the platform you already use to run your studio. Instead of managing your client relationships in one place and delivering photos in another, everything now lives together. Create a gallery, connect it to your client and their session, and deliver a beautiful, curated experience that reflects your brand.

Is Galleries included in my current Iris plan, or is it an add-on?

Galleries is included with every Iris plan. Every account comes with 3 GB of gallery storage to get you started.

When will Galleries be available in my account?

Galleries officially launches on November 16th. Once it’s live, you’ll find it ready and waiting in your Iris account.

Do I need to set anything up before creating my first gallery?

No setup required. Galleries is ready to use from day one, so you can jump right in and create your first gallery whenever you’re ready.

Can I move my existing galleries over from another platform ?

Importing galleries from other platforms isn’t currently supported. You can start creating new galleries in Iris right away and deliver them alongside the rest of your client workflow.

How do I create a gallery?

You can create a gallery from several places, depending on where you are in your workflow:

Wherever you start, your gallery stays connected to your client in Iris.

Is there a limit to how many galleries or images I can upload?

Your gallery and storage limits are based on your Iris subscription plan. If you need more room as your business grows, upgrading your plan will give you additional capacity.

Can I organize images into sets or folders?

Yes. You can organize your images into sets, making it easy to group photos by look, location, or part of the session so your clients can browse their gallery with ease.

Yes. You can set an expiration date on any gallery, which is a great way to encourage clients to view, favorite, and order before their gallery closes.

Can I password protect a gallery?

Yes. You can add a password to any gallery so only the people you share it with can view the images.

Can I reuse settings across galleries with presets?

Yes. Presets let you save your go-to gallery settings and apply them to new galleries in just a click, saving you time and keeping your galleries consistent.

How does Galleries connect to my clients and sessions in Iris?

Galleries is built to work with the rest of your Iris workflow. You can link a client’s session to a gallery at any time, or set it up from the start by selecting “Create Iris Gallery” when booking. Either way, your galleries stay connected to the clients and sessions they belong to.

Can I add my own logo and brand colors?

Yes. Your logo pulls in automatically from your studio settings, so there’s nothing extra to upload. You can also choose custom colors so every gallery feels like an extension of your brand.

Will my clients see Iris branding anywhere?
