Private client photo proofing galleries with favorites, per-image comments, final approval, and ZIP/CSV exports.
HeartApproval adds a complete client photo proofing workflow to WordPress. Create a gallery, upload your images, and send your client a private access link. Clients can review the gallery on desktop or mobile, mark their favorite images, and leave precise comments directly on individual photos.
When the selection is complete, the client can finalize the gallery to prevent further changes. You can then export the selected images as a ZIP archive or download the selection data as CSV.
A simple workflow for photographers and clients
- Create and configure a client gallery in the WordPress admin area.
- Upload images from the Media Library or your computer.
- Share the gallery using its private, token-protected link.
- Let the client select favorites and add per-image feedback.
- Finalize the approved selection and export the results.
Key features
- WordPress-native gallery management.
- Private gallery links protected by individual access tokens.
- Responsive client galleries with configurable grid or masonry layouts.
- Full-screen PhotoSwipe lightbox with navigation, zoom, and touch gestures.

HeartApproval is designed for photographers, designers, agencies, and other visual professionals who need a focused approval process without sending clients to a separate proofing platform.
