From a code to a keepsake.
Three small steps. The couple sets up once, the guests do almost nothing, and the photos come home to you.

01
Create your film
Name your camera, choose a film roll or an open gallery, pick a film look, and decide whether you review photos before they appear. One calm form, a minute or two, not a wizard.
02
Invite your people
Share a link or put a QR code on the table. Guests open the camera straight from their phone and enter a first name, nothing more. No app to install, no account to make, no password to remember.
03
Capture together
Everyone shoots from their own phone through the day. Every frame flows into a private gallery you control, then develops into one film you reveal together.
The whole thing lives in a pocket.
Guests shoot from a viewfinder that already wears your film look. Every frame lands in a gallery you own, and nothing reaches the room until you approve it.

Two ways to capture the day.
Choose the ritual when you create the camera. One leans into anticipation, the other into the live room. You pick which suits your wedding.
Film rollThe disposable-camera ritual.
Each guest gets a set number of shots. Until the reveal moment they only see their own frames, then the whole film develops at once and the entire roll appears for everyone together.
- A fixed number of shots per guest
- Hidden until the reveal, then developed together
- The anticipation of dropping off a roll of film
Open galleryLive, and on the big screen.
Unlimited shots per guest, with photos appearing as they come in. Built to feed a live slideshow on a TV or projector at the reception, so the room watches the night unfold.
- Unlimited shots for every guest
- Photos appear live as they are approved
- Feeds a reception slideshow on the big screen
The roll develops, and the whole room sees the day at once.
The reveal is the moment Memories is built around. On a film roll, every photo stays hidden until you choose to develop it, then the entire night arrives together, through everyone's eyes. On an open gallery, the same photos play across a live slideshow on the wall, a guestbook note threaded in every few slides.
Either way, the day comes back to you through every pair of eyes that was in the room.
A gentle film grade over every shot.
A library of film-emulation looks, applied softly so photos feel filmic, never like a heavy phone filter. The original is always kept untouched, so you can change the whole gallery's look whenever you like.

The look is baked into your keepsake. When you download a photo or the whole album, the grade you chose is burned into the file, at full quality, with no watermark.
It is your gallery, start to finish.
Photos are stored privately, and you only ever see them through short-lived links after proving the camera is yours. With review turned on, nothing reaches your guests until you say so.
When the day is done, the whole album is yours to keep, the way you saw it.
Review before guests see
New photos and guestbook notes land pending. Approve each one, or approve everything in a single tap.
A gallery you own
Switch the film look, set or move the reveal, and manage every photo from one calm dashboard.
Download the whole roll
Take a single graded photo, or the entire album as a ZIP, all at full quality with no watermark.
Kept safe for a year
Your camera is held for a year from your wedding, with friendly reminders before anything is removed.
No download. No account. No fuss.
The camera is already waiting in your guests' pocket. They scan, they shoot, and that is the whole ask of them.
No app, no account
Guests scan a code or tap a link and start shooting, on Android or iPhone. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.
Shoots when the signal drops
Photos save to the phone first and upload themselves later. A dead spot or load shedding never costs you a single frame.
Full quality, yours to keep
Download every photo at full resolution with no watermark, as single files or one ZIP of the whole album.
One-time, priced by your guest count.
