The Favorites feature allows you to pick specific photos in a gallery or collection, save them as a set of favorites, and then share this set directly with me. A link to this set can also be e-mailed to a friend. Please note: Favourites sets are only visible to me once the set has been shared with me using the appropriate option.
A Buy link (if purchasing available) allows you to add an entire Favorites set to the Shopping Cart at once.
