Year-Long Collections

A year-long home for a whole group’s photos

A Collection is a 12-month collaborative workspace. A whole team — a school, an alumni committee, a congregation, a family — gathers photos and the stories behind them into one organized archive, then downloads everything to keep.

$229/year · $179/year for verified nonprofits and schools.

Room for ~25,000 photos (100 GB). Videos and large scans use more space; add storage anytime.

Gather from everyone

Share one link. Anyone can add photos from their phone or computer — no app, no account to create.

Keep the stories, not just the files

Every photo carries the year, the names, and a short description. A team sorts, tags, and approves together.

Download everything to keep

Export the whole archive at original quality plus a spreadsheet of every detail. What you download is yours.

Inside a Collection

These screens come from the sample Collection.

The workspacePrivate to your team
The Collection workspace: a folder list on the left, a grid of photos in the middle, and a panel on the right for one photo’s caption and details.
  1. 1Sort photos into folders. Only the folders you publish go public.
  2. 2Every photo your team and contributors add. New uploads wait for your approval.
  3. 3Add a caption, date, place, and source to each photo.
The public galleryWhat visitors see
The public gallery of the sample Collection: a cover photo with the title, a short introduction, a search box, and cards for each section.
  1. 1Your cover photo, title and a short introduction.
  2. 2Visitors can search every caption and detail.
  3. 3Each published folder becomes a section.
A photo, as visitors see itOpened from the gallery
One photo open in the gallery: a 1942 drugstore interior on the left, and on the right its caption followed by the year, description, location, photographer and source.
  1. 1The caption becomes the photo’s title.
  2. 2Every detail you recorded, from the year to the source.
  3. 3Visitors use the arrows to move through the archive.
Adding photosWhat contributors see on a phone
Two phone screens from the contributor upload page. On the left, the contributor types their name to start. On the right, a family dinner photo they added, with fields for the year, description, location, photographer, and source.
  1. 1Contributors open your link and type their name. No account to create, no app to install.
  2. 2Each photo lands in your Inbox and stays private until a curator approves it.
  3. 3They add the year, a description, and the place while they remember it.
