Import from Pixieset
Move finished photographs from Pixieset into ISO100 without publishing them immediately. Review the photos, edit any details, then import.

Prepare your Pixieset export
Download each Pixieset collection as a ZIP, choosing Original resolution when it is available in your collection settings.
- Check download settings
Open the collection in Client Gallery, then Settings > Download. Check the available download sizes and note the download PIN if one is required. Keep any gallery password in place.
- Download the collection
Open the collection’s gallery view and click the download icon at the top right. Enter your email and PIN if requested, select the sets and highest available resolution, choose your device as the destination, and click Start Download.
- Save every ZIP part
Download all prepared ZIP files, then select them together in ISO100 without extracting them. Large collections can have several parts. ISO100 uses the available collection or set folders and leaves recognized smaller renditions unchecked.
Prepare the files for ISO100
Upload the ZIP files exactly as downloaded. Select all photo and metadata parts from the same export together; you do not need to extract, rename, or combine their contents. The combined upload must fit the 250 MB limit.
ISO100 reads supported metadata and gallery folders, and uses ZIP names when a gallery download has no named folder. Check the proposed gallery names before importing. It leaves recognized smaller renditions and repeated files unchecked.
- Keep the original downloads
Save all ZIP parts and keep a backup. Select them together using Choose ZIP exports in Studio. If two ZIPs have the same filename, give one a distinct filename so both can be selected.
- Use a folder for loose photos
If the provider gives you individual files, choose the folder containing those files. You can use one subfolder per intended gallery, or assign the photos to galleries during review.
- Check the review
Review the photos, gallery names, captions, dates, and order. If a warning says files or export parts are missing, check your downloads and start a new import with the complete set. Do not confirm both copies of the same import.
- Choose finished image files
For local originals, export RAW edits as finished JPEGs in sRGB. Check Studio’s supported file types and limits. Website XML exports, videos, and metadata files alone are not photographs.
Preview the migration
The files and folder structure can become galleries. Client favorites, proofing activity, store orders, download PINs, and client permissions do not transfer.
Studio shows proposed gallery names, selected photographs, storage use, unsupported files, and plan limits before it prepares any ISO100 content.
- Rename galleries or uncheck their photos before importing.
- Deselect files that do not belong in the portfolio.
- Check image quality before importing; a small web copy cannot recover the detail of your original.
Review and import photos
- Open the importer
In Studio, open Photos, open More, then select Import portfolio. An empty library shows Import portfolio directly.
- Choose Pixieset
Choose the platform, then select all downloaded ZIP parts together, or choose a folder of photo files.
- Review and import
Uncheck photos you do not want. Open a photo to edit its details, or choose Import photos without editing. Selected galleries are created with Public visibility but remain unpublished. To keep a gallery private when you later publish your portfolio, open Gallery details and set its visibility to Draft.
- Check before publishing
Review processing, crops, titles, captions, alt text, and gallery order. Publishing remains a separate action.
What remains at the source
ISO100 does not delete or modify the source account. Themes, custom pages, commerce, comments, followers, passwords, client activity, and domain settings are outside the photo migration.
Open Studio to make the change.
