Client selections are useful only when they are easy to act on. If a client sends screenshots, WhatsApp messages, or a typed list of file names, the real work begins after the selection arrives. You still have to match every pick back to the original file on your machine.
Selection Sync exists to remove that gap. It lets the favourites list inside a stack become a practical bridge between the client gallery and your local editing folder.
Start with organised sets
Before sharing the stack, organise photos into sets that match how the client thinks: ceremony, reception, portraits, birthday entrance, family, details. This makes the client selection cleaner, and it makes your sync pass easier later.
Let the client pick inside the gallery
Instead of asking for screenshots, ask the client to use favourites. Their picks stay attached to the exact photos they viewed, which means fewer mistakes and fewer back-and-forth corrections.
Sync against the local folder
When the selection is ready, Selection Sync can compare the selected gallery files with your local folder and place matches into a subfolder. That gives you a clean editing queue without manually searching through hundreds or thousands of originals.
Why it matters
The win is not just speed. It also protects attention. You spend less time checking filenames and more time finishing the images the client actually wants.
