Client Portal Overview

Your personal space to view galleries, make payments, and download photos

Client Portal Overview

Welcome to Seleckt! Your photographer has given you access to a personal portal where you can view your photos, handle payments, sign contracts, and more -- all in one place.

What is the Client Portal?

The client portal is your private space on Seleckt. Think of it as a dedicated hub between you and your photographer. Everything related to your project lives here, so you never need to dig through emails or messages to find what you need.

From your portal, you can:

  • Track your bookings -- see upcoming and past shoots, their status, and add them to your calendar
  • Browse galleries of photos your photographer has shared with you
  • Select your favourites from a gallery when your photographer asks you to choose
  • Leave comments on individual photos or galleries, with threaded replies and emoji reactions
  • Mark photos as favourites with a heart icon, and share your favourites with friends and family via a special link
  • Pay invoices securely online with a credit or debit card
  • Review and respond to quotes before work begins
  • Sign contracts digitally, right from your browser
  • Download your final photos in full resolution

How Do You Get Access?

Getting into your portal is straightforward:

  1. Your photographer sends you an invite email from Seleckt.
  2. You click the link in that email.
  3. You create your account by setting a password.
  4. That's it -- you're in!

Once your account is set up, you can log in anytime at your photographer's Seleckt portal to check on your galleries, invoices, or contracts.

Tip: Bookmark your photographer's portal link so you can get back to it quickly. You can also log in from seleckt.app and navigate to your portal from the dashboard.

The Six Main Sections

Your portal is organised into six clear sections, accessible from the sidebar:

1. Bookings

See your shoots -- both upcoming and past -- in one place. Each booking shows its date, location, photographer, and current status, and you can open a booking to view the details and add it to your own calendar.

2. Galleries

This is where you view the photos your photographer has shared with you. Depending on the project, you might also be asked to select your favourites here.

3. Invoices

View any invoices your photographer has sent, see what's due, and make payments online with a few clicks.

4. Quotes

When your photographer sends you a quote for upcoming work, it appears here. You can review the details, accept, or decline.

5. Contracts

If your photographer requires a signed agreement, you'll find it in this section. You can read and sign contracts digitally without printing anything.

6. Downloads

Once your photos are ready, head to the Downloads section to grab your final, full-resolution files.

Role Switching

Some people are both a photographer on Seleckt and a client of another photographer. If that's you, Seleckt makes it easy to switch between roles:

  1. Click your profile avatar in the top-right corner of the screen.
  2. You'll see an option to switch role between your photographer account and your client account.
  3. Select the role you need, and the interface updates instantly.

You don't need a separate login -- one account handles both roles seamlessly.

Tip: When you're in client mode, you'll only see the portal sections relevant to you. Switch back to photographer mode whenever you need to manage your own galleries and business.
