# Custom Post Types – Galleries

 * I’m currently setting up a CPT for a gallery section on a site, this is to separate
   the meta data from the rest of the WP site and will be using a custom taxonomy
   for EXIF data and gallery sections (when I figure out how to set this up).
 * Now the problem lies in that how do I break these galleries down? For example
   a photographer may have:
 * Wedding
    Portraiture Children Seniors
 * The reason for setting up the custom taxonomy is to create these galleries based
   on the category. The problem I have is how do I pull this information across 
   based on that category? My current thinking is to use a custom archive page that
   pulls the relevant images based on the category chosen. It’s pretty easy to pull
   all posts in a CPT, but I’m having a brain freeze on how I can do this dynamically
   based on ‘section’.
 * The question I’d ask is there a better way to do this or is there a tutorial 
   that covers how to pull specific CTPs based on categories?
 * Thanks.
