Pros

  • I am using SmugMug. I like it.
  • Smugmug for example lets you create galleries allow digital downloads etc... I used to use it for delivering photo albums to any I did TFP with years ago.
  • I like smugmug. It's not free but it's good.
  • Using smugmug to make an event folder (that is password protected) that then houses individual family folders would be an easy fix for this. It does cost, but it makes delivering photos easy and professional looking.
  • The cheapest subscription is $10/month for 10 gigabytes, but the galleries look very neat and I think it’s worth it

Cons

  • We have done it previously via Smugmug- we would upload all the pictures and then hand everyone a piece of paper with the shared code on it for them to go download their own pictures. In today's world, we don't consider that a good idea...
  • SmugMug → solide, mais je trouve que ça fait un peu “vieux” dans l’approche, pas hyper moderne côté expérience client.
  • There was a post here a little while back from a photographer that basically used smugmug as her archive. Smugmug ended up deleting all her albums and refused to restore them. Clients were upset because they weren’t able to access galler...

We have done it previously via Smugmug- we would upload all the pictures and then hand everyone a piece of paper with the shared code on it for them to go download their own pictures. In today's world, we don't consider that a good idea anymore because everyone can see everyone else's pictures.

There was a post here a little while back from a photographer that basically used smugmug as her archive. Smugmug ended up deleting all her albums and refused to restore them. Clients were upset because they weren’t able to access galleries that they assumed were perpetually hosted.
