Sharing contact sheets with clients is essential for photography workflows, but it also increases the risk of unapproved downloads and uncredited use. ContactSheetMaker now includes image watermarking on Pro and Ultimate plans so you can protect previews while still delivering a polished client experience.

Why watermark contact sheets?

Watermarks help photographers, real estate teams, and agencies keep control of unfinished work. Instead of sending raw files or unprotected previews, you can brand every image in the sheet with your studio name, logo, or copyright notice before the client makes selections.

What you can customize

ContactSheetMaker lets you adjust watermark text, opacity, size, and placement so the protection stays visible without overpowering the image. That makes the feature useful for wedding galleries, property previews, and agency pitch decks where presentation quality still matters.

Batch watermarking for larger shoots

If you are working through hundreds of images from a single session, you can apply consistent watermark settings across the full contact sheet in one pass. That keeps your branding uniform and saves time compared with watermarking files individually in desktop software.

Works with client proofing

Watermarked sheets pair naturally with ContactSheetMaker's share links and client proofing workflow. Ultimate users can send a protected preview, collect image selections, and receive feedback without giving away final files too early in the process.

Get started

Watermarking is available on Pro and Ultimate plans. Open the contact sheet maker, upload your images, apply your watermark settings, and export a client-ready PDF. If you work with listing photos, see our real estate contact sheet guide or browse more tips on the ContactSheetMaker blog.
