Start an event

For churches

The weekend away, the camp, the fete. One album.

Everyone's got a phone. Nobody's got the photos. Put one code on the noticeboard and every photo from the weekend lands somewhere the leaders look after — not a group chat that scrolls away.

Why it fits

Built for a crowd

Fifty phones uploading at once go straight to storage, not through us. It doesn't slow down when the whole youth group joins.

Kids in the photos, handled

Nothing is public. The album is private to the leaders, a parent's request to remove a photo is one tap, and you can stop photos being saved to guests' own phones at all.

One sign, printed once

The Bold style reads from across a hall. Print A4, pin it up, done. The code works for the whole weekend and a week of uploads after.

How it works

Three steps, and one of them is printing.

1

Create the event

Name it, set the hours, print the sign. The code is fixed the moment the event exists, so print as early as you like.

2

People scan and shoot

Their own camera opens. No app, no sign-up. Every photo is saved to the phone first, then sent.

3

Download everything

Originals, at full size, as one zip. Or pick through the album on your phone the next morning.

Multi-day

Set the hours to the whole weekend.

An event can run for days. Open it Friday afternoon, close it Sunday lunchtime, and let the uploads land through the week as people get home to wifi.

  • One code for the whole weekend
  • No app, so it works on every phone in the room
  • Optional: photos go only to the leaders, never to the guest's camera roll
  • Download everything as one zip for the newsletter

Straight answers

We have a lot of young families. Is this appropriate?
The album is private by default and there is no public gallery. Leaders see everything and can hide or delete any photo. It was designed around exactly that.
Our hall has terrible reception.
Photos save to the phone first and send later. Nothing is lost while people wait for a bar of signal, or until they get home.
Can we stop photos ending up on everyone's phones?
Yes. Each event has a setting to turn off saving to the guest's own phone, so a photo taken in the app goes to the leaders and nowhere else. Two honest caveats: a photo that never manages to upload is then lost, and it cannot stop anyone switching to their normal camera app.

Set up the camp before the bus leaves.

Create the event, print the sign, pin it by the door. Then go and run the weekend.
