A self-hosted platform for event photography sales, Smart Media operations, optional AI assistance, unlimited media growth, production, delivery, photographer revenue and subscriber access.
Selection, pricing, communication, payment, production and photographer settlements often live in separate tools.
One workflow keeps media, customers, photographers, orders, Cloud assets and delivery status connected.
Galleries, browser upload, FTP Gallery Import, originals, derivatives, EXIF, tags, watermark, storage policies and Cloud lifecycle.
Digital, Print and Original formats, pricing, discounts, cart and checkout.
Photographer preparation, final packages, delivery evidence and order completion.
Roles, ownership, revenue, commissions, settlements and payout workflow.
Order customers plus Unlimited Subscriber accounts with protected original downloads.
AI Assistant 2.0, content pages, rich text, multilingual tools, diagnostics, readiness and release QA.
Admin pages remain thin while reusable services implement authentication, gallery visibility, storage decisions and workflow logic.
The same workflow can resolve media from Local, Hybrid or Full Cloud without redesigning the frontend.
CSRF, role checks, sanitization, signed URLs and bounded QA scans are part of the architecture.
Upload originals with any FTP client into /uploads/import/<your-folder>/, select the destination gallery, run Preflight and let Photo Sales Studio move each photo through the same storage-aware gallery pipeline used by normal uploads.
Sequential processing avoids competing PHP workers while Batch 3 amortizes request overhead. Server-side job state supports Resume and Retry Failed after an interrupted import.
Only FTP folders that physically exist are offered. Empty reusable folders remain available; deleted folders disappear. Destination lists contain current valid galleries only.
JPEG, PNG and WebP files are fingerprinted with SHA-256. Preflight classifies New, Duplicate and Problem items before import, with safe fallback checks for older Cloud masters.
Local, Hybrid and Full Cloud rules are respected. In Full Cloud, the FTP source is deleted only after the R2 master, frontend derivatives and durable fingerprint are verified.
Mock AI analysis, Batch AI, AI Queue, Review Queue and Accept & Apply / Reject are validated in the current 7.0.0.0 Production Stable release. Live API integration is API-ready and can be enabled when a production key is configured.
Analyze one photo or queue many photos, review proposed metadata safely, and apply only approved results. The workflow keeps administrators in control instead of blindly overwriting media data.
Master and presentation files live on the web server. Ideal for smaller installations and simple hosting.
Local-first access with verified Cloud fallback. Useful during migration or mixed infrastructure.
Browser uploads and FTP imports can publish verified master, thumb, grid, preview and sale outputs to Cloudflare R2. Permanent local display copies are not required.
Responsive galleries, lightbox, favorites, selection, formats and pricing — designed for image-first browsing.
Gallery-specific sale formats, print sizes, package discounts, coupons and multiple order/payment channels.
Each photographer sees and prepares their purchased images. Admin/Manager sees the complete order.
Delivery evidence, communication channel, recipient/reference and delivered-photo count stay tied to the order.

Administrator-created accounts can browse active sale galleries and download protected originals while the subscription is active.
The public storefront is designed to stay clear and usable across desktop, tablet and mobile layouts, with consistent search, categories, featured galleries and protected-preview gallery cards.
About, Contact, Privacy, FAQ, Photographer Application and custom pages are managed inside the platform. TinyMCE editing, accordions, SEO metadata and language-aware content keep the site manageable without a second CMS.
The same storefront adapts to large desktop views and compact mobile screens without losing core navigation, search or gallery visibility.
Administrator, Manager, Photographer and Subscriber identities with separate workflows.
Role permissions and photographer ownership rules limit what each user can see or change.
CSRF controls, rich-text sanitization and strict handling of executable HTML.
Cloud master objects remain private and are delivered through short-lived authorized links.
Read-only diagnostics, bounded scans and shared health contracts reduce the risk of false warnings in Full Cloud mode.
Browser upload, FTP Gallery Import, categories, galleries, Smart Media Workspace, transformations, watermark, R2 and cleanup.
Cart, checkout, orders, delivery, revenue, payouts, lifecycle and communications.
AI Assistant 2.0, CMS, users, subscribers, localization, appearance, backup, diagnostics, QA and maintenance.
