Messages along the way
Gallery ready
A personal link to the private gallery, with the access code and how long the gallery stays online.
Proofing
When the client has to choose favourites, one reminder before the deadline — and a confirmation once the selection is in.
Prints and albums
Order received, in production, shipped. The lab's progress, passed on without the client having to ask.
Download and archive
A notice before high-resolution files are removed, so nothing is lost that the client paid for.
What we hold ourselves to
Photographs are personal. The messages about them should be, too — and nothing more.
Clients, not contacts
We write to people who booked a shoot or appear in the gallery they were given access to. Business card collections stay out.
Pictures stay private
Messages contain links, never the images themselves, and no subject line reveals what or who was photographed.
No upselling in service mail
A gallery notice is not the place for a discount on the next session. Offers need separate consent.
Silence after delivery
Once the order is complete, mail stops — unless the client subscribed to the photographer's news.
Contact
For photographers and labs, for clients with a question about a message, and for blocklist operators:
Answered on working days; complaints about unwanted mail first.
