What studios are saying

“Screenshots are a real problem in our industry, and I'm just so grateful that PhotoDay has realized that and is attacking it. 

I was running a hard drive to one of my photographers at one of our events at a big arena, and as I'm walking down, I see a lady there scrolling through our pictures. And I watch her trying to screenshot a black screen, and she goes, “ain't that a &#%?”

This is exactly why we're using PhotoDay, and it's just going to keep getting better. No subscription—it's just part of the deal. It's developed by their in-house team, not a third-party developer. It's a great, great asset to have.”

HOW IT WORKS

Three layers, zero effort.

All three features are completely free to use. Auto Blur and Screen Block are automatically enabled for every gallery. Info Overlay is optional, but enabled with the flip of a toggle. Here’s what would-be screenshotters see…

Info Overlay

Customer details are layered right onto every photo as a secondary watermark to create accountability and deter unwanted screenshots.

Screen Block

Mobile screenshots and screen recordings are stopped at the source, so unpurchased images never leave the gallery.

Auto Blur

Deter desktop screenshots by blurring the entire gallery if the browser loses focus or a screenshot is attempted.

Security families never notice,
and photographers never worry about

No plugins, no passwords, no extra clicks for parents. Protection runs quietly in the background of every gallery for every PhotoDay account.

Frequently Asked
Questions

How the tools on this page fit into real studio workflows.

Does Image Protection cost anything?

No. All three layers are included free with every PhotoDay account. There's nothing to add, upgrade, or enable billing for.

Do I have to turn anything on?

Auto Blur and Screen Block are already active on every gallery—you don't have to do anything. Info Overlay is the one optional layer, and it's a single toggle in your gallery settings.

Will this make shopping harder for families?

No. Protection runs quietly in the background: no plugins, no passwords, and no extra clicks for parents. The shopping experience is exactly the same as before.

Can someone still take a screenshot?

We promise to always be transparent and upfront about how our image protection measures function as we continue developing solutions.

Although no current technological solution in the market can guarantee 100% prevention of digital image theft and AI-driven image reconstruction, we can make it harder. 

 Info Overlay and Auto Blur are compatible with all operating systems. Screen Block is currently available on iOS devices, which accounts for around 75% of PhotoDay's gallery traffic.

Does Image Protection affect the photos my customers actually buy?

Not at all. Protection applies only to gallery previews. Purchased images are delivered clean, at full resolution, with no overlay or blur.
