Create a collection for their wedding. collection Be sure that the Visibility is Restricted. You do not want the photographs to be available for everybody. Now go to Photography > Add Photographs and upload all the wedding photographs. photographs You can specify a pattern for the SKU, e.g. JJM-.

All the photographs will have this price. And obviously you need to select a colletion to which the photographs belongs. After the upload completes, you will have all the pohotgraphs listed below the Drag&Drop section so you can change SKUs, prices and collections if you need. upload-completed The collection is ready.
