Sunflare review
A focused photography platform that combines AI site creation with galleries, proofing, and booking.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Sunflare brings photography website creation, client galleries, booking, and client management into one web-based platform. It is aimed at photographers who need more than a public portfolio, particularly those managing private galleries, client selections, downloads, and sessions. AI-powered website generation provides a starting point, while the visual editor supports blocks, rows, themes, text, photos, colors, and fonts. Public portfolios can sit alongside password-protected client galleries with access tokens and expiration dates.
The free plan is a practical entry point for a small portfolio workflow: it includes a portfolio website, AI site generation, one client gallery, 150 photos, 2 GB of storage, and basic analytics. The Pro plan costs €9 per month and expands the service with unlimited client galleries and photos, a custom domain, a booking system, client management features, and gallery watermarks. Booking forms can include availability, session types, notifications, and confirmations, while client profiles organize session history, notes, payments, and linked galleries.
Sunflare’s standout focus is the connection between delivery and client interaction. Proofing supports favorites and image selections, and download permissions can cover full galleries or favorites. Password protection, access tokens, expiration dates, and watermarks add control around client delivery. A public API supports alt text, SEO, and translations. Photographers who want an integrated website, gallery, proofing, booking, and client-management workflow should consider Sunflare; those needing print sales or integrations should choose another platform.
