A guest camera made for birthdays in Australia.
Australian weddings, milestone parties, and corporate retreats lean on outdoor venues with long candid windows — ideal for a guest camera that runs all day. PicShots gives every guest a digital photo roll for birthdays, with one QR scan, no app install, and a host-controlled gallery you can reveal whenever the moment is right.

For birthdays in Australia
From Sydney harbour ceremonies to Melbourne laneway venues and Hunter Valley wineries, Australian events span urban and rural styles.
Australian events favour outdoor light — harbour ceremonies, beach brunches, winery lawns. Guest cameras shine when they run through the full daylight candid window instead of a single booth moment.
Sydney, Melbourne, Hunter Valley, and Byron Bay venues differ, but guests still expect a dead-simple scan. Print the code on programmes and cue an MC reminder near sunset.
AUD pay-once tiers keep the vendor sheet simple for planners comparing against hardware rentals.
- Sydney Harbour and Bondi venues
- Melbourne laneway venues
- Hunter Valley wineries
- Byron Bay coastal venues

Why birthday photos always disappear
- You always say 'send me the photos' and never get them
- Group chat photo dumps die in the camera roll
- The best shots are scattered across 8 phones you'll never see
- Shared albums are too much friction for casual guests
What you get
Tuned for birthdays in Australia
Works for kids' parties and milestone bashes
Same flow whether it's a 6th birthday at a trampoline park or a 50th at a restaurant. Hosts who used disposable cameras finally have a digital version that works.
Free for up to 10 guests
Most small birthdays stay on the free tier forever. Pay once only when the guest list goes bigger.
Photos that won't expire in your camera roll
Your gallery stays put long after the party ends. Pull it up next year for a throwback or hand-pick prints for the wall.
Setup tips
Setup tips for a great party gallery — Australia
1 Drop the QR on the favors table
Or tape it to the cake stand. Guests scan when they're already standing there, not when you remind them later.
2 Skip the per-guest limit for short parties
Under 3 hours, a generous shot allowance works better than a tight one — there's no time for spam.
3 Reveal the gallery during cake
Live shared gallery while everyone's still in the room beats sending a link two days later that nobody opens.
4 Use the QR for outdoor receptions
Australian outdoor venues mean long candid daylight windows — pair the QR card with a sunset MC mention to capture the best light.
