Hiring a wedding photographer or videographer can cost a fortune, but one couple has come up with a simple idea that can save you thousands of dollars on your big day.
Carla Groves and her husband Warwick quietly launched GUEST PHOTOS in June 2022, after seeing a gap in the market for a private digital photo album, designed for brides, grooms and guests to upload photographs via a QR code.
And for those who may be skeptical… These “Perfect” Event Albums You Need to See The photographs curated so far speak for themselves.
Unlike a hashtag, where everything ends up on social media for everyone to see, the platform allows all event attendees to add their photos, videos and guestbook messages to the private gallery.
As a host, you have complete control over who has access to each album, so private events are only visible to guests.
The brand has launched a new ‘Albums‘ feature that allows hosts to create separate folders with their own QR code, ideal for multiple events or organizing images.
Album packs come with 12 months of uploads, so you can decide when to open and close albums for easy collecting and sharing.

GUEST PHOTOS Allows wedding guests to add their photos to a private digital photo album.
The best part about using the platform? Guests can upload their content directly to the album, without the hassle of having to download any app or sign up for anything.
“We created an easy-to-use platform that requires no app downloads or guest registrations,” Warwick said.
Over the past two years since launching, the Adelaide couple has helped thousands of hosts collect photos and videos from their weddings, birthdays, baby showers, anniversaries, bachelor and bachelorette parties, corporate events and more.
“Our mission is to make events truly memorable by capturing your unforgettable moments,” the couple said.
Prices Prices range from $44 for small gatherings (50 guests), $77 for parties (51-100 guests) to $132 for weddings (101-250 guests).
For larger events, such as corporate parties (251 to 500 guests), the cost is $242.

The couple wanted to create an easy relationship platform using a simple yet innovative QR code system for collecting photos and videos.
“As children, our families loved looking through boxes of old photographs and reminiscing about the good times. This nostalgic experience helps us connect with our past in an authentic way,” the couple said.
‘It is with this sense of connection to past moments that the idea of helping others collect special memories of important moments or milestones in their life made perfect sense to us.
‘That’s why we set out to intentionally design GUEST PHOTOS – a private photo sharing platform designed for you and your guests to collect the best memories using a QR code.
