Guest Moments is for people who want to gather the photos and short videos guests take at an event. A QR code opens a shared gallery in a phone browser, so friends, family, coworkers, and other guests can contribute their view of the day.
A shared gallery for weddings and family celebrations
At a wedding, birthday, anniversary, quinceañera, graduation, or family reunion, guests notice moments the hosts may miss. A shared gallery gives everyone one place to add those candid photos and videos.
The event does not need to be formal or large. The useful question is whether more than one person will be taking pictures and whether you would like to collect them together.
Useful for company events and community gatherings
Teams can use a gallery for a company party, conference, retreat, fundraiser, or launch event. Organizers can invite attendees to share moments without collecting files through individual messages afterward.
For work events, decide who can view the gallery and whether uploads should be reviewed before they appear. Keep the invitation clear about how the photos will be used.
Guests do not need to be photographers
The goal is to invite people to share the moments they already capture, not to give them another job. A QR code or event link takes them to the guest page, where they can add a photo or video from their phone.
A short sign such as “Scan to share a moment” is usually enough. You can also let guests know whether the gallery is private or visible to everyone with the link.
When a shared gallery is a good fit
- You want one collection instead of photos scattered across group chats.
- Guests are likely to capture different parts of the event.
- You want to revisit candid perspectives after the day.
- You can explain who will be able to see the shared photos.
See the guest experience before you decide
Try the read-only sample gallery on a phone to see how guests browse a shared collection. Then choose the event type, visibility, and upload settings that fit your gathering.
Guest Moments is a collection tool for guest-contributed media. It complements professional event photography and does not replace a photographer’s planned coverage.
A practical family-celebration checklist
For a birthday, ask for a few favorites from each table instead of every photo. At an anniversary, invite a short message about a memory with the couple. For a family reunion, ask relatives to identify people in a separate conversation if names need clarification; do not publish personal details without permission.
For a baby shower, agree with the parents about who may view and download images before sharing the link. For a graduation, decide whether the collection belongs to one family or a larger group. Use a separate event for a separate celebration when the guests and privacy expectations are different.
One organizer should create the gallery, test a guest upload and decide whether new items need approval. Share the link with a short explanation of who will see it. After the gathering, review contributions, send one optional reminder, and download a complete copy while access remains available. Do not assume a gallery is a permanent family archive.
