GalleryDock adds one password door for separate client galleries
The Hannover platform now lets photographers embed a single access page on their own site. Free accounts get three galleries and 1 GB of storage.
GalleryDock introduced a central client gallery access point on 11 October 2026. Photographers embed it on their own website, and a client who types their gallery password lands in the matching collection.
The company is based in Hannover and was made publicly available in June 2026. Its English-language international launch followed on 24 September 2026.
The problem it addresses is mundane and real: where a client goes to find the finished pictures. A photographer running several weddings, portrait sessions or commercial shoots at once would otherwise build a separate page for each delivery.
With the central entry point, different clients use different passwords at the same address. The collections stay separate.
Setup is a copy-and-paste job. The photographer takes the generated embed code and drops it into an HTML or embed block on their site.
GalleryDock supplies the gallery experience. The photographer keeps control of the page around it, including the introduction and the branding, so the client starts at the photographer's own web address.
There are conditions. The website editor has to support the embedded content, and the published page needs testing on desktop and mobile.
The feature is not the same as embedding one gallery. It is a shared doorway to several, and existing permissions and passwords still apply to each collection.
It also does not make anyone's photographs public. Access and download settings still have to be configured per gallery.
Alongside delivery, the platform handles photo selections, image comments, controlled downloads and timecoded video feedback. That puts client review and final hand-off in the same place.
A free account includes three galleries and 1 GB of storage, subject to published storage and file-size limits. Optional gallery sales carry shop fees.
GalleryDock says the users behind its most recent registrations are already using the central access feature, and that some have described the workflow as helpful, including in Google reviews. The company claims no adoption percentage and no quantified time saving.
For a photographer weighing this up, the calculation is narrow and checkable. Three galleries and a gigabyte is enough to run one real client delivery end to end before paying anything, and the embed either works in your website editor or it does not. Both are answerable in an afternoon.
