PhotoShelter is your premier tool for getting seen, selling your work, and keeping it safe. Although PhotoShelter lets you do a lot of different things, here's a quick start guide.
  • Upload Images

    Upload from your web browser or use the five other methods. Once uploaded, your images may be viewed within your Archive Browser, a secure and completely private area of your account. Learn more.

  • Configure your security settings

    Head to your Image Security page to customize your watermark or enable global lo-res comp download privileges. PhotoShelter embeds your meta data and prevents "drag 'n drop" of images. Learn more.

  • Create & Share a Gallery

    Use a gallery to publish your images on your PhotoShelter website or share a selection of images with others. Galleries may be private, public, or password-protected, and you may enable high-res downloads for some users if you so choose. Learn more.

  • Create Your Website

    Create your own photo website in seconds! Choose a theme to get started, or go manual and edit the template to your liking. If you already have a website, use HTML/CSS (or hire us!) to blend your PhotoShelter storefront seamlessly into your existing site. Learn more.
  • Sell Your Images

    PhotoShelter offers you a powerful storefront. Sell prints, electronic downloads, or commercial stock (royalty-free and rights-managed) and get paid immediately. First step: Configure your account to sell, then set your rates through pricing profiles. Learn more.
