Share a Client Photo Link Without Logins: How It Works

Clients hate attachments. They just want a link that opens. With WorkFotos, you create a project by address, add photos and PDFs, and share a single view-only URL. Viewers do not need an account. Your team controls uploads; clients simply click and see the latest.

TL;DR — Create project by address → capture/upload photos → add short labels → attach PDFs → share one view-only link. Uploading/sharing require internet (no offline mode).

Why a view-only link beats attachments and folders

  • Always current: The same URL updates as you add photos or files.
  • No friction: Opens in any browser—no logins or new apps for clients.
  • Cleaner story: One gallery tied to the job address keeps context.
  • Less support: Fewer “I can’t find it” emails and resend requests.

Set up the link in minutes

  1. Create a project by street address. That address becomes the anchor for photos, notes, and documents.
  2. Add photos from your phone. Take wide shots for context, then details. Upload as you go.
  3. Annotate only what matters. Short labels like “primer coat” or “GFCI added” reduce back-and-forth.
  4. Attach PDFs. Plans, permits, proposals, decks—keep files with the photos.
  5. Generate a view-only link. Share it once; reuse it for updates and final handoff.

What clients see

  • A clean gallery organized by the project address.
  • On-photo notes where you added them.
  • Related PDFs in the same place for context.
  • No login screens—just the latest record.

Best practices for clear, quick viewing

  • Name the project clearly: “123 Oak St – Kitchen remodel” or “Main Hall AV – June 12.”
  • Use a simple shot pattern: Before → During → After (same angles).
  • Keep labels short: Two to four words, high signal, low clutter.
  • Attach the right files: Latest deck/spec/permit only—avoid duplicates.
