VSCO introduces new Galleries platform for managing shared images

New Delhi: VSCO has recently introduced its latest standalone application called VSCO Galleries to make it easier for photographers to share photos with clients and collaborators. This application is now available on the App Store for iPhone, and a desktop version is expected to be unveiled later.

This application focuses to address those common issues that faced by the photographers when they are using a traditional shared folder. In projects like weddings, events, or portrait shoots, multiple photographers often upload images, which can make the shared folder messy and harder to manage.

VSCO Galleries has attempted to address this by creating a single space where the images from multiple contributors can be collected and organized. Rather than sending files via different links or folders, photographers and collaborators can also upload images to a unified gallery, especially designed for photo sharing. The application focuses on making collaboration easier while also improving the way photographers deliver their work.

VSCO has also described the platform as one that simplifies the delivery process while promoting collaboration, enabling photographers, guests, event organisers, and content creators to gather and share photos in one photo-first experience.

This application also enables the organizers to generate a QR code that contributors can scan to upload photos directly to the gallery. Guests or collaborators can upload the images using the desktop or mobile browser, which means that they do not need to install the application themselves to contribute.

VSCO Pro subscribers will going to get the additional features, by including unlimited storage and password-protected galleries for sharing images with clients or event participants. These controls are intended to help the photographers manage access and keep projects organized.

The core functionality of VSCO Galleries is available for free to users, with additional features included in the VSCO Pro subscription, which costs $60 (roughly Rs 5492) per year.
