The photographer captures the ceremony. Your guests catch everything else: the laughter at the drinks reception, the quiet tears, the dance floor at two in the morning. Flash turns every guest into a disposable camera, and everyone discovers the album together. FOR YOUR WEDDING Create your film, put the QR code on the tables, and guests join with one scan, no account needed. Each guest gets a few shots, just like a disposable camera: no retakes, no editing, only real moments. At the end you get dozens of points of view you would never have had. AND FOR EVERYTHING ELSE Birthdays, parties, hen and stag dos, trips, weekends with friends, company events: it works wherever people get together and nobody wants to spend the night behind their phone. THE REVEAL Photos stay hidden until the moment you choose: live, when the film ends, or after a suspenseful delay. Then the album opens for everyone at the same time. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create your film: type of event, number of guests, shots per person, reveal time. 2. Share the QR code, guests join with one scan. 3. Everyone shoots their few photos during the event. 4. At the reveal, the album opens for all. WHAT YOU GET • One shared album, downloadable in a tap • Filters: original, vintage, black and white • A film-style shot counter • Time left on your lock screen • Private photos: the film belongs to you and your guests only Free for up to 5 guests. Beyond that, you pay once per event, based on the number of guests. No subscription.
