Before you Upload

Double-check your Session details

Customers often search by location, date, and time to find their photos. Make sure everything is accurate - especially if you changed locations or started or finished at a different time than planned.

This is also your final chance to adjust your pricing. If you captured exceptional - ”once-in-a-lifetime” moments, it’s worth reflecting that in your price. On the other hand, not every photo needs to be priced at a premium. You own your work and can use your own judgment to set a fair price.

Curate Your Photos

Editing and touch-ups aren’t required, but you’re free to refine your work if you think it strengthens your images and improves your chances of making a sale.

Remove any non-sellable frames. Too many low-quality or irrelevant shots can dilute your set and make it harder for customers to find themselves.

Be intentional with what you upload. Sport Shutter is built for premium work and a strong community - your curation helps maintain that standard.

Prep Your Files

The maximum file size is 15 MB per image, which is more than enough for high-resolution photography suitable for print.

If you’re exporting through Adobe Lightroom, we recommend saving your images at 300 dpi and around 5000 px on the longest edge. This will usually give you a great balance between image quality and file size.

You can upload photos directly from your computer, or import them from Google Drive or Dropbox.

For larger photo sets, we recommend using Google Drive or Dropbox where possible. Sport Shutter can transfer your files directly from the cloud, making uploads faster and more reliable than uploading everything through your browser.

This is especially useful when you’re working remotely. You can upload photos to Google Drive or Dropbox from your phone or laptop while you’re on the go, then import the entire set into Sport Shutter when you’re ready.
