A guest camera made for weddings in New York City.
New York City weddings, corporate events, and milestone parties run on tight venue timelines — guests usually have minutes between transitions, so the upload flow has to be one scan and done. PicShots gives every guest a digital photo roll for weddings, with one QR scan, no app install, and a host-controlled gallery you can reveal whenever the moment is right.
New York City, United States
For weddings in New York City
From Brooklyn loft weddings to Midtown rooftop parties, NYC events lean on dense venues with mixed-use spaces.
NYC events move fast: cocktail hour in one room, dinner in another, afterparty across the street. Guests have minutes between transitions, so upload friction has to be near zero — open link, name, shoot.
Venue rules in Brooklyn lofts and Midtown hotels often limit large hardware setups. A phone-based guest camera covers the candid angles a single photographer cannot while staying within typical venue constraints.
Pricing is shown in USD. Tight guest caps matter because NYC invite lists balloon with plus-ones; set the expected headcount before you print table cards.
Union timelines and vendor load-in windows leave little room for booth hardware. A QR guest camera is often the only coverage layer you can add after the photographer and florist are already booked.

- Manhattan rooftop venues
- Greenwich Village townhouses

Local tips
Hosting in New York City
Post the QR at every room change
Ceremony, cocktail, dinner, and afterparty each need a visible code or late arrivals never join.
Keep the flow offline-tolerant
Basement venues and subway-adjacent spaces have spotty signal — remind guests to retry uploads when they reach lobby Wi‑Fi.
Print the code on escort cards
Escort-card real estate is already in every guest's hand at seating — it outperforms a single bar sign in Midtown ballrooms.

Setup tips
Setup tips for the wedding day — New York City
1 Print one QR per table
Slot it next to the menu or favor. Couples who do this collect 3–5× more uploads than a single ceremony QR.
2 Add the QR to your welcome sign
Catches the cocktail-hour crowd before they put their phones away — usually your best candid window.
3 Set a sensible per-guest limit
20–30 shots keeps it candid and the gallery scannable. Bump higher if you want short video clips too.
4 Use the QR on signage at every venue change
NYC events often move from ceremony to reception in a separate building — repeat the QR at each room so guests rejoin the camera flow.
