Why PicShots fits
Small dinners often skip a professional photographer. PicShots lets every seat at the table contribute candid coverage instead.
PicShots is free for events with up to 10 guests — the exact size of most intimate restaurant receptions. Paid tiers cover larger private dining bookings.
Restaurant receptions have a quieter atmosphere than ballroom weddings. The browser-based camera flow stays unobtrusive while still collecting every important moment.
When the gallery is small, shot limits matter even more. PicShots keeps the gallery intentional rather than dumping every reflexive phone shot in.
Setup tips
With a small table, the QR works best when every guest sees it as they sit down. Add it as a small card next to the menu.
Intimate dinners always start with a welcome by the host. Slipping in a one-line mention of the QR is the single highest-yield prompt.
Intimate dinners do best with a smaller shot allowance — around 10–15 per guest — to keep the final gallery feeling curated.
Sydney's sunset window is the candid sweet spot — a single MC reminder doubles uploads compared to a static QR card alone.
Put the QR in welcome packs because guests often stay overnight and start taking photos before the ceremony.
