Gallery FAQs
Important suggestions before you visit your galleries:
1. View the Selects Gallery before the All Photos Gallery. This will feel less overwhelming than viewing everything at once.
2. Galleries are best viewed on a monitor.
3. Skim the FAQs below to help navigate your gallery.
How long will my web page be available?
Your page on danasiles.com is permanent. Future galleries will be added to the same page. (If you’d like to rename your URL, let me know before sharing.)
How do I share with friends and family?
Share your page link—this gives access to all galleries.
What’s the difference between All Photos and Selects?
All Photos Gallery: Lightly edited proofs; expires in 1 year; best for creating Favorites and ordering; not for social-sharing; password protection available.
Dana's Selects Gallery: Carefully edited, near final or final quality; social-sharing enabled; permanent.
How are Selects chosen?
I select the strongest images from each scenario based on quality, energy, emotion, and variety. Subtle variations may be included (color vs. b&w, focus, expressions). Occasionally, less flattering expressions are kept if they capture a meaningful or character moment.
How do you choose the prints included in my Coverage/Collection?
I curate print-worthy images from the Selects, considering quality, storytelling, and your preferences. Final selections for albums/prints are collaborative.
Can I download my images?
Yes. Downloads from both galleries require your email + PIN. The download option expires after use.
Can I order photos in color or black & white?
Yes. I typically recommend the version shown.
Are photos further edited for prints?
Yes. Ordered prints/albums receive additional adjustments, including color correction, burning, dodging, retouching, and cropping. Special retouching requests may incur additional fees. Final edits depend on how the photo will be used, its size, and the paper surface. For specific requests, please add notes to the photo in your Favorites List.
How do I create a Favorites List?
Click the heart icon (desktop or mobile). Name your list, add notes, and email me when ready. Tip: Make separate lists for albums, prints, gifts, etc.
How do I order albums, prints, framing, holiday cards, or gifts?
Click Print Store at the top of your gallery or select Buy Photo. See the NEXT STEPS page for guidance.
Do you require a minimum order?
No.
How long are rates guaranteed?
Rates and turnaround times are guaranteed for six months from your wedding, event, or session date.
Do I have to order prints now?
No, but it’s easiest while your All Photos gallery is active (extendable for $50/year).
Can I order digital files for social media?
Yes, with a watermark. Check Selects first, since they already include social-ready images.
