The questions people actually ask.

They use it, and the room does the persuading for you. The first few guests scan, their photographs land on the big screen within seconds, and everybody else looks up to see what they are doing. It goes table by table on its own, and by the speeches it is simply what people are doing.

That is the bit a shared album or a hashtag never manages. Those ask a guest to go somewhere, sign in, and come back to it later — which is a favour you are asking, at a party. This gives something back in the same breath: you take a photograph and it is up in front of the whole room before you have put your phone down. People keep doing the thing that rewards them instantly.

And there is nothing behind the code to lose anybody. Pointing a phone camera at it opens a camera — not an app store page, not a signup form. A first name, one tick-box, and they are shooting.

They will, because there is almost nothing to manage. Anyone who can take a photo on their phone can use Snapories — that is genuinely the whole skill. They point the camera at the code the way they would point it at a cake, and they are in. No account, no password, no download, no permission dialogs to squint at, nothing to remember afterwards. The parts of an app that lose people are the parts that are not here.

Set that against the usual answer to this problem — “we’ve made a shared album, just install this and sign in with the address you used for…” That is the exact sentence a seventy-year-old stops at, and quite right too. Here there is nothing for anyone to get wrong.

And your eighty-year-old great-aunt, who would honestly rather sit and watch? She has the best seat in the house. The live view runs on a screen in the room, so every photograph the party takes arrives in front of her all evening — the dance floor, the speeches, the table she cannot see from where she is sitting. She gets the whole night, and never lifts a finger for it.

Taking the photographs was never the hard part. Getting hold of them is.

Think how this normally goes. Weeks of asking people to send you theirs. A hundred separate chat threads with four pictures in each, scattered across a dozen apps. A shared folder half the guests never join. And the best photograph of the entire night sits on the phone of somebody you met once — you will never see it.

Every guest is already carrying a camera, and that is exactly why this works. Snapories turns those two hundred phones into one set: every guest's photographs in one place, arriving as they happen, and the whole lot in a single file afterwards. Nothing to chase, nothing missed, nobody left out.

The film roll is quietly working for you as well. Sixteen shots by default is a number rather than an infinity, and a number makes people aim — so what you get is the photographs somebody meant to take, instead of forty near-identical frames of the same toast to wade through on Sunday.

Both halves are photographs of your night, and each one is the best version of the thing it is.

Your guests' photographs stay exactly as they took them. The film roll is real photography and it stays that way: an AI picture is a new photograph of its own, saved beside the original and marked as AI wherever it appears.

The photobooth is obviously a photobooth — and it says so, proudly: every result carries an AI mark wherever it appears, in the gallery, in the live view and on the guest's own phone. It dresses the people who are already in the shot. The room, the light and the friends standing behind them are the photograph they took a second ago. It is a costume, not a different evening.

And you get both, on every event: the honest record of the night, and the bit everybody crowds round — the same faces, the same room, in a costume nobody had to hire, carry home or clean.

Nothing arrives, and nothing gets set up. There is no machine giving up a table's worth of floor in the corner, no case to hand back the next morning, no attendant, no queue, and no paper tray that ran out at nine o'clock and nobody noticed until eleven.

Nobody has to leave the dance floor either, go and get dressed up, and stand in a line for twenty minutes to have their turn. This is one booth per guest, in their hand: two hundred people can all be in it in the same moment — from the table, from the garden, from the middle of a song — from the first arrival to the last. A rental is one queue for one machine. This is the whole party at once, all evening.

And the thing a booth is really for — the little strip you walk away with — comes out better here. A paper strip creases in a jacket pocket, gets left behind on a table, or goes missing somewhere between the taxi and Sunday morning. The one your guests make lands on their phone the second it exists: full quality, ready to send straight to whoever is grinning next to them in it, and still theirs long after a strip would have vanished. It is in your gallery too, so you end up with every single one.

Costumes work the same way. Not a crate of plastic hats that forty other people have already worn, but a look made for the photograph your guests just took, and a new one whenever they fancy it. Photobooth fun, without renting a photobooth.

One price per event, by guest count: €29, €59, €79, €99, €149 or €199. All prices are total prices incl. VAT. No further costs are added.

Paid once, before the event, and that is the whole bill. It covers every guest for the entire evening — their camera, the live view, the photobooth, the code and the flyer — and there are no hours to buy. No subscription, no per-guest fee on top, no card kept on file, nothing that quietly renews next March. The one thing you can add later is more AI photos, if the event uses up its pool. Above 200 guests we quote.

You choose EU or US when you create the event, and that event's photographs, gallery and guest records stay in the region you chose. It is a per-event choice, not a company-wide setting — your evening lives where you want it to live.

Your event runs for a window you set. Afterwards everything stays available to you for at least 30 days — and your guests go home with the whole set, because you send them a private download link of your own that you can set to last 1–7 days. Their access to the shared gallery closes with the event, which is rather the point: your party does not stay open on the internet for ever. Want the lot deleted sooner? Ask us and we do it.

And you hold the controls the entire time. Hide any photograph, or block a guest, straight from your own dashboard, mid-party, and it is off the screen in the room. Nothing waits for anyone's approval but yours.

Bad signal is the one where a phone beats a machine outright.

The camera is already in your guest's pocket, and it does not need a connection to take a photograph. A shot taken in a stone cellar simply waits and sends itself the moment there are bars again — nothing is lost, and nobody has to take it twice. The join code is an ordinary web page too, so anyone who joins while the venue's wifi is behaving is set for the rest of the night, wherever in the building they wander off to.

In a barn with genuinely nothing at all, the live view catches up rather than keeping pace: the photographs land in a wave when the room reconnects, which is a rather good moment in itself. Put the venue's wifi password on the same card as the join code and you will not even notice it happen.

A machine in the corner with a dead uplink stops working. Two hundred phone cameras do not — they keep shooting all night, and every photograph arrives.

You send one link — that is the whole job. When the event ends you get a private download link for the entire set — set it to last anywhere between one and seven days, drop it into your thank-you message, and everybody has everything. No album invitations, no sign-ins, nobody missing out because they were not in the right group chat.

Whatever a guest wants on the night is already theirs — they save it to their own phone as they go, without waiting for you to get round to it. And your own copy of the lot stays available to you for at least 30 days after the event: one file, one click.

Dates move. It happens, and here it costs you nothing: reschedule from your dashboard in a few taps, or cancel for a full refund any time before your first guest joins. Nobody to telephone, no form to fill in, no fee for changing your mind — you manage all of it from a normal web page, on your phone during the evening or on a laptop before it.

And on top of that, consumers get the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal on the booking. We do not make you argue for it.

Yes, and we would rather you did — it is the fastest way to understand any of this. The demo is the real app on a real event: take a photo, send it through the photobooth, watch what comes back on your own phone. No signup, no card, nothing to install, and nothing to cancel afterwards.
