Don't let the best moments stay stuck on phones
You’ve brought your favorite people together to celebrate. While you are busy hosting, greeting, and actually enjoying the party, your guests are capturing the moments you might miss. They catch the spontaneous toasts, the reactions, and the group selfies. But usually, those photos stay on their phones. Or they get lost in a messy group chat. Gather Shot gives you a simple way to collect everything. You get to enjoy your night and wake up tomorrow to a full gallery of memories from every angle.

How Gather Shot makes your party better
Make photo sharing effortless for your engagement celebration. Every guest can contribute to your memories without any hassle.
- Instant sharing with a QR code
- Your guests don't want to download another app just to share a photo. With Gather Shot, they simply scan a unique QR code with their regular camera. They pick their photos or videos and hit upload. It is fast enough that they will actually do it.
- Break the ice with a Scavenger Hunt
- Engagement parties often bring together different friend groups who might not know each other. Use our Scavenger Hunt feature to get them mingling. Set prompts like "Find the couple kissing" or "Selfie with the future in laws" and watch the gallery fill up.
- You control the gallery
- Worried about an unflattering angle making it to social media? You have full moderation tools. Your public event page only displays photos you have explicitly approved. You can hide the ones you don't like and organize favorites with custom tags.
- Keepsakes for everyone
- Once you have curated the collection, you can share the public gallery link with your guests. They can see the professional shots alongside the candid moments. You can also download everything in high quality ZIP bundles.
Simple, one time pricing
No subscriptions that charge you for months after the party ends. Pay once per event.
Guests never need an app or account to upload
Frequently Asked Questions
Do my guests need to download an app?
No app required. Guests use their phone's camera to scan your QR code, which opens a secure upload page in their mobile browser.
Can guests upload videos too?
Yes, video uploads are supported. Guests can upload video clips just as easily as photos. We handle the storage and formatting.
How long do we keep the photos?
1 year of storage is included with both plans. Download your full archive at any time to keep on your own computer or hard drive forever.
Can I approve photos before other guests see them?
Yes, you have full moderation control. Your public gallery only shows photos you have approved. Review every upload privately first, then decide which ones appear.
What happens if we take more than 1,000 photos?
You can upgrade to Pro instantly from your dashboard. We will not delete your photos if you go over. We just pause new uploads until you upgrade.
Is this a subscription?
No, it is a one-time payment per event. Gather Shot charges per event for the features and storage for that specific celebration. There are no monthly recurring charges.
