How to add a watermark

Watermarking in Session is flexible: you can set one watermark for all galleries, and still turn it off (or on) for a single gallery when you need to.

1. Set your watermark globally

1. Go to Manage > Gallery settings.
2. Under Watermark, click Change watermark.
3. Upload your watermark image (typically a transparent PNG).
4. Use the preview to:
   • Choose placement (center, corners, etc.),
   • Scale it bigger/smaller,
   • Adjust opacity so it’s visible but not distracting.
5. Click Save.

This becomes your default watermark for any new photos you upload to galleries.

2. Turn watermark on/off for a specific gallery

Sometimes you want most galleries watermarked, but not this one (or the other way around).

1. Open the gallery.
2. In the left panel, click Watermark ON (or Watermark OFF).
3. Toggle the switch at the top to enable or disable the watermark for that gallery.
4. Done ✅ — new photos uploaded to this gallery will follow that setting.

Note: No matter what you pick, Session always gives your client the original, non-watermarked file on download.

3. A few tips

• Upload a high-quality PNG with transparency for best results.
• Keep opacity a bit lower if your work is light/airy so the watermark doesn’t overpower it.
• You can always go back to Manage > Gallery settings to update the watermark for future uploads.
