One film. Everyone shoots. Nobody looks until it develops.

Your guests scan a code and get a handful of shots on their own phone camera. No app, no account. Nobody sees a single photo — not even the person who took it — until the hour you choose.

How an evening becomes a film

Create the film. Name it, pick the hour it develops, choose how many shots each guest gets. You get a link, a QR code and a card you can print for the table.
Guests scan and shoot. One tap opens the camera they already know. The shot is gone the moment they take it — they see how many are left, nothing else.
It develops. At the hour you set, or the moment you press the button. The album opens for everyone at once.

Why the waiting is the point

Shared albums fill up with the same five poses, because everyone can see what everyone else already posted. A closed film doesn't. Your guests shoot what they actually see, and the evening arrives all at once, from two hundred angles.

Ten shots each is not a limitation we forgot to remove. It's why people aim.

What you get after it develops

The album in the order the evening happened, every frame signed with who took it.
Everything as one archive, in full resolution — one link, one download.
A printable card with your QR code for the table or the entrance.

guests per film

Every film is free up to five guests, so you can run a small one before you trust us with a wedding. Paid plans are not open yet — say the word and we will raise your guest limit by hand.

Questions people actually ask

Does my guest need to install anything?: No. The link opens in the browser they already have, on iPhone and on Android, and the shot is taken with the phone's own camera.
Can they see the photos during the party?: No. Not other people's, not their own. Until the film develops there is nothing to look at — that is the whole product.
What if the signal drops?: The shot waits and goes out on its own when the connection is back. It is never charged twice.
Who can see the album afterwards?: Anyone with the film's link. The host can delete any frame, or the whole film, at any time after it develops. Each guest can also delete their own shot.
Can I open it earlier than planned?: Yes. The host panel has a Develop now button.
How many shots should I give each guest?: Ten is the default and it works. Five makes people careful, thirty makes it a phone album again.
