Annotations are comments pinned to a precise location on a photo. Instead of writing “fix the hair on the left” in a general message, you click the exact spot on the image and type your note there. Both photographers and clients (approvers) can add annotations, reply to each other’s notes in threaded comments, and mark notes as resolved once the feedback has been addressed.

Adding an annotation

1

Enter annotation mode

Open a photo and click the Add Note button (or press N). The cursor changes to a crosshair to indicate you are in annotation mode.
2

Place a marker or draw a rectangle

Click anywhere on the photo to place a marker, or drag across the area you want to highlight to draw a rectangle.
3

Type your comment

A text input appears next to your annotation. Type your feedback and press Save (or hit Enter) to post it.
4

Exit annotation mode

Click Done or press N again to leave annotation mode. Your notes are saved and visible to everyone with access to the photo.
Drag a marker or rectangle to move it. Drag the handle in a rectangle’s lower-right corner to make it larger or smaller. You can do both outside annotation mode.

Who can annotate

Photographers (owners)

Owners can add annotations, edit their own notes, move markers by dragging them at any time, and delete any annotation on the photo.

Clients (approvers)

Approvers can add annotations and reply to existing annotation threads. They cannot delete notes left by other users.
Guest users can view photos and their annotations but cannot add or edit notes.
Deleting an annotation also removes its entire reply thread. This action cannot be undone.

Annotation threads

Each annotation supports a reply thread, so conversations about a specific spot stay organized in one place.
  • Click on any annotation marker to open the thread panel.
  • Type in the reply box at the bottom of the thread and press Send to post a reply.
  • You can delete your own comments from a thread; owners can delete any comment.

Resolving annotations

Once you have addressed a piece of feedback, mark the annotation as resolved to keep the list tidy.
1

Resolve a single annotation

Open an annotation and click Resolve. The marker turns grey and moves to the “Resolved” filter view. Click Unresolve to reopen it if needed.
2

Resolve all open annotations at once

When you have addressed all outstanding feedback, click Resolve All at the top of the annotations panel. This marks every open annotation on the photo as resolved in one action.
You can filter the annotation list by All, Open, or Resolved to focus on what still needs attention.
Resolve annotations as you upload revised photos. A clean resolved list makes it easy to confirm at a glance that all feedback was addressed before you request the next review round.
