I'm new to Drupal, and I'm using the Image module and Image Galleries to display casting shoots to my clients, however I don't want all the photo galleries to be visible by all clients. Can I assign galleries to each of the users? I've tried assigning moderators to no avail.

My apologies and thanks ahead of time!

Does the Image Gallery Access module does what you need? I haven't tried it myself, though...

To an extent... I haven't figured out how I can let some auth. users see certain galleries and other users see other galleries.

Hmmm - as I said, I have no personal experience with that particular module. As I understand the description, it allows to control access based on user roles, but not for individual users. You could introduce dedicated user roles for each (group of) client(s), but admittedly that's not very nice. As an alternative, you could check other access control modules (like those based on taxonomy) and then make sure that individual users and images / galleries are tagged with the same terms. That's replacing user roles with tags - but the idea stays the same: somehow classify both users and galleries, and then control access based on that classification.

Edit: Uhh, I think I mixed the taxonomy idea completely - for example, the Taxonomy Access Control module also only allows controlling on the basis of user roles. So you again end up with setting up individual user roles...

Sorry I can't help more...
