"I've had trouble setting FTP up in the past, so I had ZERO expectation of this working for me. I've watched every video on YouTube about FTP and have never been able to push out an image. Sideline Live worked on the first try after just a few minutes of setup.

Happy is an understatement!"

— Nolan Keesee, Freelance Sports Photographer

Stop Managing Infrastructure.
Start Delivering Your Photos.

Traditional live-delivery platforms force you to think about things that have nothing to do with photography—servers and connections, folder structures and file paths, sync delays, failed uploads, and the manual steps between shooting and sharing.

All of that overhead adds stress, slows delivery, and pulls your attention away from the moment you’re there to capture.

Sideline Live was built to remove all of that. There’s nothing to configure, nothing to maintain, and nothing to babysit. Photos move straight from camera to gallery, updating automatically in real time as you shoot.

No interruptions. No extra steps. No surprises.

The result? Faster delivery, happier clients, and more time spent doing what actually matters—shooting, not troubleshooting.

Photographers switch to Sideline Live because it feels invisible. And that’s exactly the point.

Shoot. Send. Smile.

The simplest way to deliver photos in real time—without the setup, overhead, or friction. Here's what makes Sideline Live different:

Live delivery that actually feels live

Photos appear in galleries the moment they're captured—automatically updating in real time, without refreshes, delays, or manual steps.

Simple setup, zero maintenance

Get started in under 30 seconds. There are no FTP servers, no configurations, and nothing to troubleshoot before or during an event.

Instant galleries your clients love

Clients receive fast, beautiful galleries where they can view, favorite, and download images immediately—on any device.

Security without complexity

Password-protect galleries when needed and control what's public or private, without adding extra workflow steps.

Built-in insight – not guesswork

Track gallery views, engagement, and downloads with simple, built-in analytics—no third-party tools required.

Your brand at the forefront

Customize galleries with your logo and business name, and share a single photographer profile that brings all your work together in one place.
