With the new SmugMug integration, managing photos through UltraCamp has never been easier. Effortlessly upload, organize, secure, and sell your photos. Create folders and galleries in SmugMug directly through UltraCamp, linking them to specific sessions so only registered participants and their families can view them through their accounts—no more sharing links or sending out passwords.
IMPORTANT
- To use SmugMug with UltraCamp, you must activate the integration from inside your UltraCamp account. It connects instantly and includes special pricing only available for UltraCamp clients.
- Your subscription will be billed through UltraCamp, not SmugMug.
- Do not create a separate SmugMug account on their website - this will create a separate account and may result in double billing.
Note
Connecting and authorization the SmugMug integration is only available in UltraCamp Beta. If you are in UltraCamp Classic, click on the UltraCamp logo to switch to Beta.
Existing SmugMug Users
If you already have a SmugMug account, please contact SmugMug before integrating your UltraCamp account. Your subscription will be adjusted to the discounted rate, making the transition seamless.

Activate Your New SmugMug in UltraCamp
When setting up SmugMug login credentials, each camp is limited to one user account. If you need to change the account email, this can be done directly in SmugMug.
- Switch to UltraCamp Beta by clicking the UltraCamp logo in the upper-left corner, then select Home Page (Beta) from the menu.
- Click on the Mega Menu
.
- Select Settings (for the initial setup only).
- Go to Camper Services.
- Select Photo Gallery.
- Click Activate With SmugMug.
- Enter your camp's name and login credentials, and click Activate My Account.
- Complete Authorize Connection to finish the setup. This step must be done to connect your account.
Note
After activating the account, the next step is to authorize the connection between SmugMug and UltraCamp. You must complete this step before you can use SmugMug.
Tip
Existing SmugMug users can switch to the discounted rate and receive credit for the remainder of their subscription. Simply select Connect Existing Account, and SmugMug support will contact you to complete the process.
Create Folders and Connect Sessions
After you connect and authenticate SmugMug, you'll be automatically taken to the Photo Gallery page to create your first folder.
-
- Folders can be linked to one or more sessions.
- Only accounts registered for a session can view the images.
- Folders not linked to a session can still store images, but those images will be visible to anyone with an account who views the Photo Gallery.
- Go to the Mega Menu (in Beta).
- Click on Tools and go to Photo Gallery.
- Select Add/Edit Folders.
- Click New Folder and enter a name (this is for organizational purposes for the admins and assistants. It is not visible to the public).
-
Gallery: By default, a gallery will automatically be created for each folder.
- Check Create Gallery Per Day if you want a gallery for each day of a session.
- Click Add for Session.
- Click Update, then Save.
Note
Folders need to be created in UltraCamp. Do NOT delete Folders directly in SmugMug as this will break the connection.
Tip
If you need to rename a folder, you can do so in UltraCamp or SmugMug. The update may take a moment to take effect.
