Common Questions
Do my guests need to download an app?
No app is required. Guests scan your QR code or click your link to upload photos and videos directly from their browser. They do not need to create an account.
How does the Scavenger Hunt work?
You create up to 15 photo challenges. Prompts like "Bride laughing" or "Group selfie" appear on guests' phones, and they upload photos to match each one. Scavenger Hunts are included with Pro and available as a Basic add-on.
Can I approve photos before they appear?
Yes, you have full moderation control. Review every upload before it goes public, or let them go live and delete any you do not like later.
How long do you keep our photos?
1 year of storage is included. Your gallery stays online for 1 year, and you can download your photo and video uploads during that period.
Is my gallery private?
Yes, galleries are private by default. Your gallery is only accessible via your unique link and is not searchable on Google. You decide who gets the link.
Can I customize the look?
Yes. Pick your colors, write a welcome message, and add a cover photo to match your wedding theme.
What is the best way to collect wedding photos from guests?
A QR code photo gallery lets guests upload directly from their browser. You can print the code on table cards and signage so guests can find it during the event.
Is Gather Shot a good photo booth alternative for weddings?
Gather Shot offers a different workflow from a photo booth. You place QR codes around the venue so guests can upload photos from their phones, while a booth creates photos at one dedicated station.
