Capture every birthday moment

You're too busy hosting to photograph everything. Your guests aren't.

🎂

Cake & candles

The moment everyone gathers round and sings — captured from 15 different angles by 15 different phones, all landing in one gallery in real time.

🥳

Arrival & decorations

Guests arrive before you're ready to photograph. They capture the balloons, the spread, the banner — moments you're too busy hosting to shoot yourself.

🎁

Gift opening

The reactions, the wrapping paper chaos, the thank-you hugs. Every guest has a different angle. Your gallery gets all of them.

🕺

Dancing & games

The best birthday photos happen when people stop posing. Guests upload spontaneous moments you'd never have staged — and they're always the favorites.

Set up in 4 steps

From zero to collecting birthday photos in under a minute.

01

Create your birthday event

Create an event draft, then choose Starter, Plus, or Max before sharing with guests. Guest uploads require a paid package.

02

Share the QR code

Display it on a sign at the party, put it in the group chat, or text it to guests before they arrive. However works best for your crowd.

03

Guests upload all night

Every guest scans and uploads from their phone. Photos appear in the gallery instantly — visible to everyone at the party.

04

Relive every moment

Download the full gallery after the party. Every photo from every guest, in original quality — nothing lost in a group chat that gets buried.

💬

Birthday messages & wishes

Guests can add a personal birthday message with their photo — a digital guestbook that builds itself through the party without anyone having to pass a book around.

❤️

Heart your favorites

Guests can react to photos during the party. Sort by most-liked to find the crowd-pleasers — great for picking the birthday photo to frame.

📺

Live slideshow on the TV

Every paid event package includes a live slideshow that updates as approved photos arrive. Open it on a laptop connected to a TV or projector.

📦

Download everything

After the party, download every photo and video in original quality as a ZIP. Original resolution, nothing compressed, yours forever.

📋

No app, no sign-up

Guests scan a QR code with their camera app and the upload page opens instantly. Works on every iPhone and Android — zero friction for older guests too.

📧

Guest contact list

Guests can optionally leave their email. You walk away from the party with a ready-made list — handy for thank-you notes or next year's invitation.

🔒

Private & secure

Only guests with your link can view and upload. No strangers, no public profile. You control who gets the QR code.

Hosts love it

My mom's 70th birthday had 60 guests. We ended up with 400 photos I never would have got otherwise — cousins I haven't seen in years uploading pictures I didn't know existed. It was brilliant.

Organized her mom's 70th

I put the QR code on a sign at the entrance. By the time the cake came out we had 150 photos. Everyone loved seeing their pics pop up on the TV in real time.
