A second 'camera' at every table
Guests cover the angles you can't be at. Your hero shots stay yours; the table-level candids fill in the rest of the story.
For photographers · Auckland, New Zealand
Auckland is a leading New Zealand city (1.5M residents), with budgets and vendor pricing in NZD ($). Across weddings, corporate events, and milestone parties, a single QR-code guest camera is one of the few flows that works for every attendee without an app install. PicShots gives every guest a digital photo roll for photographers, with one QR scan, no app install, and a host-controlled gallery you can reveal whenever the moment is right.

Oceania events lean on coastal venues, vineyards, and long outdoor receptions where guest cameras have a clear candid daylight window.
Built for photographers
What you get
Guests cover the angles you can't be at. Your hero shots stay yours; the table-level candids fill in the rest of the story.
Offer it as a value-add in your wedding or event package. Your couples get more photos; you don't shoot more hours.
Combine your edits with the guest roll for a richer, more authentic delivery — the candids you couldn't take, alongside the work you did.
Guests run the QR flow themselves. No setup at the venue, no extra gear, no second shooter to manage.
Setup tips
Send the couple the QR with their package. They handle the table cards; you keep your focus on the shoot.
20–30 shots per guest stops the gallery becoming pure noise and keeps the standout candids easy to spot.
Pick the best 40–60 from the guest roll and slot them into the album alongside your own edits. The couple sees one cohesive story, not two galleries.
The strongest candid window is right before sunset — a single MC reminder can double uploads compared to relying on a static card alone.
