A free Pixieset alternative — with no photo limits
If you searched for a free Pixieset alternative, you probably hit the same wall most photographers do: free plans cap how many photos you can store. That cap exists because those platforms host your photos, and storage is what they pay for. Gallumé takes a different path — it leaves your photos in the Google Drive folder you already use and just wraps it in a polished, client-ready gallery. No re-uploading, no storage meter, no photo cap.
Why most “free” gallery plans cap your photos
A single wedding gallery can be 500–800 photos; a portrait session 80–150. Platforms that store your images have to charge for that space, so their free tiers are deliberately small and often delete inactive galleries. Galluméstores zero photo bytes — images load directly from Google's servers when a client opens the gallery — so “unlimited photos, free” isn't a promotion, it's just how the architecture works.
Gallumé vs. a storage-based gallery platform
| Feature | Storage-based platform | Gallumé |
|---|---|---|
| Photos on the free plan | Capped (storage-limited) | Unlimited |
| Where photos live | On their servers (re-upload) | Your Google Drive (no upload) |
| Password protection | Often a paid feature | Free, included |
| Inactive gallery deletion | Common on free tiers | Galleries stay live |
| Client account required | Sometimes | Never |
| Built for | Storefront, prints, proofing | Making your delivery link presentable |
Competitor plans and limits change over time — check their current pricing before deciding. The durable difference is structural: they price by storage, Gallumé stores nothing.
When Pixieset is still the better choice
If you sell prints, run proofing-and-ordering workflows, or want an all-in-one website and CRM, a full platform like Pixieset does far more than Gallumé. Galluméis deliberately narrow: it makes the Google Drive link you already send look like the professional work you delivered. If that's the job, you don't need to pay for storage you don't use.
