For festivals and retreats · United States
Across the US, weddings and corporate events run on tight venue contracts and mixed guest devices — the only upload flow that consistently works for everyone is one QR scanned in the browser. PicShots gives every guest a digital photo roll for festivals and retreats, with one QR scan, no app install, and a host-controlled gallery you can reveal whenever the moment is right.

What you get
Every attendee can capture workshops, campfire moments, vendor booths, and side-stage energy from where they already are.
Use the same QR on wristbands, signage, programmes, and slides so the camera stays visible across the weekend.
Keep the gallery hidden while the event is live, review what came in, then reveal the public-facing gallery when ready.
Download guest photos for recap posts, sponsor reports, next year's landing page, or the community newsletter.
Setup tips
Permanent placement beats posters people stop seeing after the first hour.
A 10-second reminder each morning keeps uploads steady across all days, not just day one.
Multi-day events need more room. Start around 80–120 shots per guest and adjust based on event size.
US weddings nearly always print a programme — keeping the QR there means every guest sees it without separate signage.
