Science & documentation

The platform for documentary photographers

Tell true stories and keep the archive behind them in order.

Why documentary photographers choose Pixelliott

Documentary photography depends on context: who, where and when. Pixelliott preserves that context for every image, keeps sensitive work private until it is ready and gives your finished stories a proper home.

  • Context preserved

    Capture time, camera and location stay attached to every photo.

  • Publish when ready

    Keep projects private while you work, then release them in one go.

  • Tell the story

    Pair photo essays with long-form posts on the built-in blog.

Features for documentary photographers

The Pixelliott features that fit a documentary photography workflow best.

  • EXIF & camera details

    Camera body, lens and capture time are read from every photo, so your work can be browsed by the kit and the moment it was taken.

  • Location mapping

    Place photos on a map and let people browse your work by country and region.

  • Visibility control

    Decide exactly what is public and what stays private, album by album.

  • Built-in blog

    Write about your shoots, projects and techniques, and give search engines more of your work to find.

  • Write your own licence

    Create licences in your own words and attach them to photos, so buyers know exactly how they can use your work.

  • Activity timeline

    See a detailed history of changes to photos, albums and watermarks, and who made them.
