WedShoots

OK, you've caught us red handed, WedShoots is our very own wedding photo app. But who are we to deny our nearly and newlyweds access to the ultimate tool to upload ALL your wedding guests' photos in one super easy to access wedding photo sharing app. 

How it works:

First things first, sign up with your email address or use your Hitched account to log in and create an album to share memories from your wedding day. 

Next up, share your album QR code or link with all your guests so they can download the app, browse through all the pictures and easily add their own photos and videos. Gone are they days of having to chase your guests to send their snaps on Whatsapp.

Anyone with access to the shared album will be able to download your album in full hi-resolution anytime. But privacy is still paramount and you can adjust your album settings to suit your level of access and ensure your wedding photos are only available to those you want to see them. As admin, you can activate or deactivate the album, share content or block certain members, the power is totally in your hand. 

Where to download the app:

WedShoots is available to IOS and Android. Download on Google Play and the App Store to get started.

App features:

We might be biased but we think WedShoots is so much more than just a wedding photo sharing app - it's packed brimming with fun and helpful features. 

  • Add unlimited photos
  • Apply filters and edit photos in the app
  • Flick through new photos in real time
  • View and share all your wedding photos in one place
  • Like and leave comments on photos
  • Download everything in hi-resolution

Don't just take our word for it though, check out some of the glowing reviews over on the app store.

"Easy to use, nice photos and lots of fun to see photos other people have taken," one WedShoots user wrote.

 Another added: "Guests logged in easily and it's so fun seeing all the photos appear! Adjustable permissions is also handy. You need to login to WedShoots with your existing Hitched login details if you want to link to an existing wedding website, but we got there and it's great! Being able to sort the photos manually/by time would be great so that you can look back through the day in order, as they can only be viewed in order of upload atm."

Kululu is an even photo sharing app designed to set up digital photo albums and make it easy to collate guests' photos all in one place. There is a free option, however this limits users to 100 uploads and we have a sneaky suspicion that most of our newlyweds and their guests will have a few more snaps to add. The $99 package allows for unlimited uploads saved for one year.

How it works: 

Collect photos, videos, and wishes from guests in a digital album accessible via a QR code or link. You can also live stream all the uploads made by your guests in a fun slideshow that updates in real time and can be displayed on TVs and projectors so you can re-live your wedding day through your guests eyes.
