The app-free way to collect wedding photos from guests

Capture every moment of your wedding with AI

Photonza is a web platform that gathers the photos sitting on your wedding guests' phones into one live feed. A guest scans the QR code on the invitation, types a name and is in within ten seconds; no app, no account. With a single selfie, AI face recognition finds every photo the couple or any guest appears in. Photos stay downloadable for 30 days after the wedding, then are deleted automatically.

How do you collect the photos wedding guests take?

The simplest way is one QR code printed on the invitation and the tables. When a guest scans it, Photonza opens in the browser and photos and videos land in the shared feed at full resolution. There is no WhatsApp-style compression, no 1,024-member limit and no photos lost between messages.

The photographer joins the same event with a single-use invite code and bulk-uploads hundreds of shots, so professional and guest photos live in one place with the same face matching.

How do guests find their own photos?

A guest takes a selfie. The numeric face signature is computed on their own phone; the selfie image never leaves the device. That signature is matched against the event's photos and videos, and the guest sees every frame they appear in. Large group shots are scanned in tiles so distant faces are not missed.

With private mode on, each guest sees only frames with their own face, while the couple sees the whole feed.

How does AI organise the wedding photos?

Every upload is sorted automatically into one of 24 wedding categories such as bride prep, ceremony, first dance, cake cutting, family and friends. Content moderation filters inappropriate uploads before they reach the feed. A live slideshow mode shows incoming photos on the venue screen.

After the wedding the couple downloads all photos, videos, notes and wishes in one go. Guests never provide a phone number or e-mail; only the display name they typed is stored.

Frequently asked questions

Can older guests use it?
Yes. Joining only requires scanning the QR code with the camera and typing a name; there is no app store, password or e-mail verification. The invite link can also be sent over WhatsApp.
Can the same event be used for the henna night and engagement?
Each event has its own QR and invite code. You create separate events for the henna night, engagement and wedding; each has its own feed and its own 30-day download window.
Do the photographer's shots go into the feed?
Yes. The photographer gets a single-use invite code, bulk-uploads, and can add a watermark, disable downloads or sell frames. Guests find the photographer's shots with the same selfie.
What happens to the photos after the wedding?
Everyone can download for 30 days after the event ends. Then the event and all media are permanently deleted; nothing is kept in an archive.
