sharing files back and forth with my editor/sales manager

My sales manager does online client reveals of my images while meeting with my client over zoom. Or at least that is the idea. I would like to be able to share my client's LR collection with my sales manager, have her do a zoom reveal/sales session where she is able to rate and make comments on each image, then have her send that collection back to me for final processing. We both have Lr and LrC. We cannot figure this out to save our lives. Please help.  I was able to initially get the collection to her via some version of Lr, but she was not able to make any comments or ratings, so it was not helpful for our needs. We are both using the latest versions available.  I am on macOS and she is on Windows, but I think that shouldn't matter. Perhaps we are confused about types of Lightroom. We both have the icons that say Lr and LrC but when she clicks on my invite to the collection, it goes to a "web" version. Can someone help explain this to me like I'm 5 years old? It shouldn't be this hard.

Hi @Jessica28182687slxe, welcome to the community! 👋😊
No worries at all — the different versions of Lightroom can definitely be a bit confusing at first.

There are basically two main versions:

* Lightroom Classic (LrC) – great for working with photos stored locally on your computer.

* Lightroom (LR) – the cloud-based version, perfect for syncing your photos across devices and editing on the go.


The cloud-based Lightroom works seamlessly across the desktop app, web browser, and mobile devices. It can even sync with Lightroom Classic if you’d like to use both!

 

You can also create shared albums in Lightroom to collaborate with others — and you can access and edit those albums either in the web version or the desktop app. Here’s a helpful guide to walk you through it.

 

Let me know if you have any questions — happy to help!
