Display guest photos on the big screen as they happen

Show guest photos on any screen, updated in real time.

Your guests are taking amazing photos all night. Gather Shot lets you put those photos on display for everyone to enjoy, right as they are uploaded.

Open the slideshow on any browser-connected screen, whether it is a TV, a projector, or a tablet, and watch it update in real time. Every new upload appears automatically, keeping the energy high and the crowd engaged.

Stop cycling through the same 10 stock slides

Most event venues loop a pre-made slideshow that nobody watches after the first five minutes. It is static, impersonal, and disconnected from what is actually happening in the room.

Meanwhile, guests are snapping candid photos on their phones that never make it beyond their camera roll. The best moments of the night stay buried in individual pockets.

A live slideshow changes that. It takes the photos guests are already capturing and puts them on a screen where everyone can see, react, and laugh together. It turns passive photo-taking into a shared experience.

How the live slideshow works

1

Open the slideshow link

Every Gather Shot event comes with a dedicated slideshow URL. Open it in any browser on a TV, projector, laptop, or tablet.

2

Guests upload photos

Guests scan your QR code and upload photos from their phones. No app needed. Photos appear in your gallery within seconds.

3

Watch the screen update

New photos appear on the slideshow automatically as they are approved. The display rotates through your growing collection without any manual refreshing.

Why This Feature Matters

Works on any screen

Smart TVs, projectors, laptops, tablets. If it has a browser, it can run the slideshow. No special hardware, no dongles, no installation required.

Real-time updates

New photos appear on the display as guests upload them. The slideshow grows throughout your event, so the screen always has fresh content to show.

Moderation built in

Only approved photos appear on the slideshow. You keep full control over what shows up on the big screen, so there are no surprises during your event.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of screen do I need for the live slideshow?
Any screen with a web browser works, including TVs, projectors, laptops, and tablets. The slideshow is a fullscreen web page you open via a unique URL. Navigate to the link in any browser and go fullscreen.
Do photos appear on the slideshow immediately?
Not instantly. There is a slight delay. New approved photos are picked up within about 15 seconds (the polling interval). Photos must also be approved through moderation before they appear.
Can I run the slideshow and collect photos at the same time?
Yes. The slideshow runs on its own URL, completely independent of the upload portal. Guests upload photos on their phones while the slideshow displays approved photos on your screen simultaneously.
Does the slideshow need WiFi to work?
Yes. The slideshow is a live web page that checks the server every 15 seconds for newly approved photos. The device running the slideshow needs an active internet connection.
Is there an extra cost for the live slideshow feature?
No. The slideshow is included with both Basic and Pro plans. It is automatically available whenever you enable the Public Gallery for your event. No add-on or upgrade required.
Can I control how fast the slideshow rotates?
Photos rotate every 6 seconds automatically. There is no user-facing setting to adjust the speed at this time.
