Free contact sheet maker
The free contact sheet maker that runs in your browser.
Lay out a shoot, label every frame, and send one PDF your client can actually review. For a single job or a whole season.
- Free, no account
- Nothing uploaded
- PDF in a minute
The handoff
Every hour spent chasing selects is an hour you are not shooting.
The photographs are the easy part. Getting a decision out of a client is what eats the week.
Sending a folder
- Forty attachments and a 90MB email
- “The third one from the left, no the other one”
- Screenshots with arrows drawn on them
- Re-exporting because the client changed their mind
Sending a contact sheet
- One PDF, every frame labelled
- Filenames your editor can search for
- Picks and notes tied to the actual image
- A link you send once and forget about
No account, no card, nothing uploaded. About a minute.
One page for the whole shoot.
Send it as a PDF, or as a link your client can mark up themselves.
What came back
Jess · Harbour Studio
“Frames 1 and 3 for the cover. The two portraits work for the spread, and 8 if you can crop it square.”
What you get
Everything between the shoot and the sign-off
Built for the part of the job nobody enjoys: getting a decision out of a folder of photos.
A grid you actually control
Columns, rows, margins, spacing, alignment. Push the numbers until the page looks like the one you would have printed.
Labels that survive the handoff
Filenames under every frame, or your own captions. Whoever opens the PDF can name the shot they mean.
Your name on it, not ours
Text or logo watermark, placed where you want it, at the weight you want. Headers and footers for the shoot and the date.
One PDF, ready to print
Rendered at up to 300dpi. Email it, print it, mark it up with a pen on the train.
Selects come back in one link
Your client ticks the frames they want and types a note on any of them. You get an email and a list of filenames.
Boards for the direction
A freeform canvas for references, video, and PDF pages, for the jobs that need a brief before they need a shoot.
What it is for
The whole take on one page
A contact sheet puts every frame from a shoot on one labelled, ordered page, so you can compare them side by side and agree what goes forward.
Add images in the browser, choose the grid and page details, then download a PDF. The free editor works without an account; saving projects, adding brand tools, and sharing proofing links are available when your workflow needs them.
Review a shoot
See the whole take at once, with filenames and order intact.
Agree the selects
Send one ordered document instead of forty attachments.
Hand off to the edit
Keep references unambiguous before retouching starts.
Client proofing
Stop chasing selects over email
Send one link. Your client ticks the frames they want, types a note on any of them, and submits. No account, no screenshots, no thread to unpick.
Proofing workflow
- 01
Create the review link
Open a saved sheet, set an optional pick limit, and copy the private link.
- 02
Client marks the selects
They choose images and leave filename-specific notes in the browser. No client account is needed.
- 03
Move straight into editing
Get the submission email, review every note, and copy selected filenames from your dashboard.
Mood board builder
Build the visual direction before production begins.
Pin up references, type, video, and PDF pages anywhere on an open canvas. Settle the look of a shoot with the client before anyone picks up a camera, and keep their comments on the board itself.
Builder included with Pro. Password-protected sharing and canvas comments are included with Ultimate.
Start in the dedicated mood board workspace, or open your saved boards from the dashboard when you are ready to continue.
- 01
Build without a template
Place images, text, video embeds, and PDF pages anywhere on the canvas.
- 02
Present one visual direction
Use image masks, borders, filters, and colour controls to make the board feel considered.
- 03
Share for a decision
Send a password-protected link and keep client comments attached to the board.
