You see the deadline from your first visit
If your photographer set a deadline, there's a Photo selection deadline badge with the date next to the gallery name. That day is still yours: the gallery closes only the day after.

"Selection time is over"
After the deadline, instead of the confirm button you see a Selection time is over badge and this message: the gallery is closed and photos can no longer be selected, contact your photographer if you need more time. Your photos stay visible, but you can't select anything new, add a comment or open the enlarged view.
3
"Selection confirmed"
This is the other case: the gallery closed because you confirmed your selection. Here the Request re-editing button is available, and it sends your photographer a request to unlock the gallery.

What you can do
- write to your photographer and ask for more time or for the gallery to be reopened,
- while you're at it, tell them how many photos you managed to select, if you know,
- don't expect the gallery to reopen on its own. Only your photographer can change this in their panel.
