ImagePress – User Photo Upload Gallery for Weddings, Photographers & Communities

Let people upload, organise and show their work

ImagePress is a multi-user image gallery plugin that turns WordPress into a place where your visitors contribute the photos. It is a natural fit for wedding websites, where guests upload their own pictures from the day straight into preset galleries and collections, so the couple ends up with every angle of the celebration in one place. The same front-end upload, moderation and collection tools power sites for photographers, photography clubs, art and design communities and any user-generated content site, complete with member profiles, portfolios and front-end login.

Trusted by more than 10,000 WordPress websites, ImagePress lets users upload images, categorise and tag them, and gather them into public or private collections, while images are grouped into separate sortable and filterable galleries. With colours, fonts, templates, dimensions and switchable features to customise, ImagePress can power standalone community sites in the style of ArtStation, CGSociety or PosterSpy, and no two sites look the same.

For administrators and developers

An extensive admin section offers a wide range of configuration options and behaviour settings, with a shortcode generator to place galleries, upload forms and collections quickly. Developer options make it possible to add custom features such as notifications, hooks and white-label profiles, and images use native WordPress attachments, so there is no platform lock-in.
