Photographer wedding cameras
Full-frame bodies, fast primes, dual-card slots, a second shooter. If that is your search, talk to a working wedding photographer or a camera shop. PicShots does not replace that kit.
Wedding camera
A wedding camera for every guest, not only the photographer.
If you searched 'wedding camera' for a Sony or Canon body, this is not that page. Hire a photographer for the job you cannot restage. Then give the rest of the room a digital disposable wedding camera: one QR, a limited roll, and every candid in a gallery you control.

Photographer gear vs a guest wedding camera
Guest wedding cameras
The rest of the room is already holding a camera (their phone). A guest wedding camera is a limited roll plus a place for the files to land, so you are not begging for AirDrops at midnight.
Guest coverage
What a digital wedding camera actually is
One QR, every phone
Guests scan and the browser becomes a camera. No extra hardware to hand out, collect, or lose.
Shot limits like film
Each guest gets a fair number of frames. The gallery stays candid instead of an unlimited dump.
Host-controlled reveal
Keep the roll private during the reception. Delete, then open the gallery when you want.
ZIP for the archive
Download every guest roll and store it beside the photographer's files.

Hardware you do not need to pack
Handing out real cameras vs opening one on every phone
Instant cameras and film disposables photograph well on a tablescape. They also leave the venue in coat pockets. A guest wedding camera in the browser has nothing to collect at exit. Keep a few physical cameras if you love the object. Let PicShots be the camera every other guest already brought.
Setup
Give every guest a wedding camera in four steps
1 Hire the photographer first
A guest wedding camera is extra coverage, not a substitute for portraits, formals, and low-light work.
2 Create the PicShots gallery
Set guest count and per-guest shot limit. That limit is the 'film' in the digital wedding camera.
3 Print the QR on tables and the welcome sign
You are handing every guest a camera without a crate of plastic disposables.
4 Review and download
Open the gallery when you are ready. Take the ZIP so you are not dependent on any one host later.

FAQ
Wedding camera questions
What camera do I need for a wedding?
If you are the hired photographer: a reliable dual-card body, fast lenses, and backup. If you are the couple: hire that person, then give guests a digital wedding camera (PicShots) so table candids are not lost.
What is a wedding camera for guests?
A limited camera roll each guest can shoot during the day, with photos landing in one gallery. PicShots does this in the phone browser after a QR scan, with optional PIN and host review.
Should wedding guests bring cameras?
They will bring phones either way. Asking them to bring a dedicated camera adds bags and lost gear. A guest wedding camera on the phone is enough.
Digital vs disposable wedding cameras?
Physical disposables are table decor. Digital guest cameras return the photos the same night and do not depend on collecting plastic cameras at exit. You can use both.
Will a guest wedding camera replace a photographer?
No. Guest rolls miss formals, lighting control, and the shots you hired someone to make. Use both.
How do guests use the wedding camera?
They scan the QR, allow camera access, type a display name, and shoot until their shot limit. Nothing to install.
