drophost for photographers
- JPG and PNG on free
- Direct image URLs
- Upgrade for larger files
How to do it
1. Upload what photographers usually send
drophost shares JPG and PNG selects as a link when a full gallery product is overkill. Clients open the images over HTTPS with no login and no app install. Free covers common image formats within 2 MB on one project—Starter at €5/mo expands storage and adds passwords when a shoot needs a private review. Replace selects after feedback and keep the same client bookmark.
2. Send one URL
Paste the live link into email, Slack, or your CRM. Recipients do not need a drophost account.
3. Replace as work changes
Upload a new version to the same project so bookmarks stay valid.
Quick client reviews
Upload JPG or PNG exports and send the drophost URL by email or text. Clients tap open on mobile without creating an account. When they mark favorites, replace the set on the same project so the original link still works through the next round.
Know the size limits
Free projects are capped at 2 MB—fine for web-sized selects, not RAW dumps. Larger shoot packages need Starter (€5/mo or €50/yr) or Pro (€12/mo or €120/yr), or a dedicated gallery tool for high-volume delivery. Use drophost when a handful of proofing images should move as a clean URL.
Private proofs
Add a password on paid plans before you send unfinished proofs to a client. Share the passphrase separately so casual forwards stay gated. Recipients still never need a drophost account—only the link and optional password. Custom domains polish the URL when the brand matters.
