BENEFIT 01
Server-generated watermarks
A protected preview is created from the uploaded image while the original remains separate and unavailable to the client.
FILE DELIVERY FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS
Show the photos. Keep the high-resolution originals locked.
Cutlock gives photographers a protected client proofing and delivery workflow. Share watermarked previews, collect precise comments, request payment and release the clean files from one project link.
For commercial, portrait, event, product and freelance photographers delivering edited images directly to clients.
No client account required · No platform commission
THE HANDOFF PROBLEM
A Drive folder is not a payment or proofing workflow.
Sending full-resolution images before approval makes it difficult to control revisions and payment. Sending tiny previews by email creates a second delivery step. Cutlock keeps the preview and the final handoff connected.
BENEFIT 02
Visual photo feedback
Clients can select an area of the image and explain the retouching or correction they want in context.
BENEFIT 03
Pay-to-download delivery
Let the client pay through the project link before the high-resolution files unlock.
HOW CUTLOCK WORKS
From protected preview to final delivery.
01
Upload the edited images
Add the files and let Cutlock prepare watermarked proofs automatically.
02
Send the proofing link
The client reviews the set and leaves comments directly on the relevant image area.
03
Collect payment and deliver
After the required payment, the same link provides access to the clean originals.
SUPPORTED ON THIS WORKFLOW
JPEG, PNG and WebP images, plus PDF documents
COMMON QUESTIONS
What clients and creators need to know.
Can I send watermarked photo proofs to a client?
Yes. Cutlock creates a watermarked preview for supported image files and keeps the clean uploaded original unavailable until release.
Can clients leave retouching notes on a photo?
Yes. A client can mark a point or region on an image and attach a comment to that exact location.
Can a client pay before downloading full-resolution photos?
Yes. You can require payment before the original files become downloadable through the project link.
Does the client need to install an app?
No. The proofing and delivery page works in a browser and does not require a client account or application install.
