Built for photographers,
by a photographer.

Galerist was born behind the lens. From someone who spent ceremonies standing in the sun at 40 °C, corporate events running until late at night, newborn sessions where the baby refuses to stay still, and corporate portraits where you have to convince a CFO that no, he isn't posing.

And then, once the real work is done, the same moment always comes — when you shut yourself in the studio in front of a computer to deliver the photos to the client. That's when I realized that every existing tool was built for the people making money on it, not for the people shooting.

A small act of honesty

The big photo delivery services you already know are serious products, made with care. But they all share one choice that has always bothered me: you have to subscribe to use them. Even if you deliver one gallery a year, you pay all 12 months. Even if you're idle for a whole season, you pay. Even if you just want to try the product with one client, you pay.

I wanted a tool that was honest like a handshake instead: if you need it, you pay. If you don't, you don't. Period. A single gallery is paid once and never renews. A subscription does renew, but the date of the next renewal is always on your billing page, and you can cancel whenever you like: it stays active until the end of the period you've paid for. No “unlimited” plans with hidden fair‑use caps in the ToS. No tricks.

Our vision

Galerist doesn't want to be the biggest SaaS in the world. It wants to be the tool a photographer picks because they feel respected. Because the price follows the way they work: if you deliver a few galleries a year, you can pay for them one at a time, €9.99 each, and nothing renews; if you deliver often, you choose a subscription, with as many galleries as your storage holds.

We want every gallery you send to a client to be a small manifesto of your studio. Your logo, your style, your studio's name — it's your brand delivering the photos. All we ask in return is a small “made with Galerist” line in the footer: a quiet signature that lets the next photographer discover the tool you chose. It never competes with your brand — it just travels with it. On Pro and Studio you can switch it off.

And we want to build it slowly, listening to those who actually use it. The photographer with 12 intense summer shoots and zero in winter. The videographer who films a couple of brand commercials per month. The portrait artist delivering mini‑sessions to families. The small studio handling corporate events and headshots.

None of this is optimized for Wall Street. It's optimized for that moment when you finish exporting the photos and you just want them to arrive with the client in a way that's beautiful, secure, professional.

Three promises

• 01Pay when you need to. A single gallery at €9.99, or subscribe when you deliver continuously. If you buy a gallery today, you have no obligations tomorrow.
• 02Your brand up front. Paid galleries carry no Galerist watermark. Client emails carry your logo and studio name, and replies come straight to you.
• 03Explicit caps on space and video, never “unlimited” storage. We always state how many GB of storage and how many hours of video your plan includes. Honest pricing, because “unlimited” storage doesn't exist.

Honest about the limits

Galerist isn't for everyone. If you manage a studio with 20 photographers and need enterprise DAM with IPTC metadata, Galerist isn't for you — go for dedicated B2B solutions. If you need to deliver RAW files, ditto: RAW files aren't accepted — Galerist delivers the JPEGs you export.

Galerist is for the photographer or videographer working solo or in a small team, delivering 5 to 100 galleries per year, who wants a tool that doesn't punish them when they're not using it.
