Organize photos with scenes

Scenes split a gallery into named groups, for example the parts of a wedding day. Clients get a row of scene buttons so they can jump between them. You create scenes in the editor.

Add a scene yourself

1. Open the gallery in the editor.
2. Select Add Scene and name it. New scenes start as "New Scene".
3. Select photos in edit mode and use the Scene action to move them into the scene.
4. To rename a scene, select Rename. To remove one, select Delete scene.

Photos that aren't in a scene stay in the general group.

Let Osvio suggest scenes

1. Select Detect Scenes. Osvio looks at when and where the photos were taken and at how similar they look.
2. A banner shows how many scenes it found, for example "4 scenes detected".
3. Select Apply to create them, or Dismiss to ignore the suggestion.

Osvio never moves photos on its own: nothing changes until you select Apply. Suggested scene names can describe the time of day (such as Morning or Evening) or a location.

Detect Scenes works only when AI scenes is switched on for the gallery. AI scenes is a Standard plan feature. See Gallery settings reference.

Add photos straight into a scene

Select Upload here on a scene. Uploads then go into that scene ("Photos will go into the scene") until you select Upload target — click to clear. You can also drop files directly onto a scene.

To select photos in edit mode, see Delete and restore photos.
