Audience
Professional and freelance photographers and small studios - wedding, newborn, family, portrait, school, communion, pet and sports - who deliver client galleries and sell photos online.
About Arcadina
Arcadina is an all-in-one platform for professional photographers, built around private client galleries.
Photographers upload photo and video sets and publish them as password-protected galleries carrying their own branding. Clients browse, mark favourites, approve their selection and download in full quality. AI facial and race-bib recognition tags images automatically, so at a wedding, a race or a school shoot each attendee finds only the photos they appear in across sets of thousands.
A commission-free store sells digital files, prints and products straight from the gallery: Arcadina takes no cut of any sale, on any plan. The platform also runs the studio, with online session booking and payment, digital contracts with e-signature, seasonal campaigns and invoicing, plus a portfolio website and blog on a custom domain.
Pricing is per account, not per user, and there is a 14-day trial with no card required. Available in English, Spanish and Italian.

Terracotta
Terracotta is web-based client gallery software for photographers and small photography studios. It helps photographers deliver branded photo and video galleries, with a style, layout, cover, and fonts selected for each shoot and then customized with a logo, colors, scenes, patterned backgrounds, and travel stamps. Clients can favorite photos, leave notes, download full-resolution files with PINs and limits, and watch films or slideshows. Photographers can password-protect or email-gate galleries, watermark previews, set expiration dates and reminders, and track gallery views and downloads. Terracotta also creates Instagram carousels, builds portfolios, collects client reviews, and imports galleries from other platforms at no charge.

Digital Album Studio
Digital Album Studio brings wedding and event photography from online gallery to printed album. Its browser-based galleries let clients browse an event’s photos and mark favorites on any phone or computer without installing software. In the Windows app, favorites become a new album in one click; photographers can use dozens of layouts, lab-specific templates or ready-made covers, and prepare names in gold, silver or debossed foil. Clients page through an album proof, comment on a photo or page, and approve with one tap; previous versions are retained. Print exports are sized to the lab’s specifications and include an order sheet. A galleries-only plan is available now, while full album-design plans are scheduled to launch in January 2027; album-design services are also offered. Original photo files stay on the photographer’s computer, with viewing copies stored in the EU. The product supports six languages.
