Common features
Why PicShots fits
Garden venues run for hours of natural light. PicShots lets every guest contribute candids across the whole window without needing the photographer at every spot.
Sunset toasts and golden-hour portraits are the strongest candid moments. Pair the QR with a quick MC mention right before sunset and uploads spike noticeably.
Outdoor venues mean guests are spread across the lawn, not gathered in one room. A scan-and-shoot browser flow keeps them participating from anywhere.
Most garden weddings have an indoor backup. PicShots collects uploads from both spaces into one gallery so the host doesn't have to merge anything later.
Setup tips
Outdoor receptions cluster around drinks. Adding the QR card to the bar and the lemonade table catches the cocktail hour participation window.
Golden hour is the single most rewarding upload window of the day. A 10-second MC reminder right before sunset is the biggest single lift you can get.
Outdoors, guests scan from farther away. Print the QR at A5 size minimum on the welcome sign so anyone at the lawn edge can still capture it.
When the day splits between a tea ceremony, lunch, and reception, the same QR keeps every candid in a single gallery instead of fragmenting them.
