The average smartphone user holds around 2,100 photos on their phone. As well as photos of everyday items such as dinner, or a cat spotted on the way to work, it means that every smartphone also holds images of unique and special moments. After all, we take our phones everywhere: to weddings, christenings, engagements and birthday parties, and the best way to share those moments with friends and family is by using a shared photo album.
The technology behind shared photo albums is amazing in its simplicity, and because it is so easy and straightforward to set up a QR code-generated shared photo album, the entry-level cost of using this technology is affordable for everyone. This means that no matter how big or small your event, or how old or young the guests at your event are, everyone with a mobile phone can access your shared photo album and share their unique images with you.
The Benefits of Shared Photo Albums
As well as being affordable and easy to access, one of the most significant benefits of utilising shared photo albums for your event is that you will gain a unique perspective of the event that you simply wouldn’t get if just one or two people were responsible for all of the images. You are able to see your event from the point of view of every single one of your guests. No single photographer can ever capture the same unique range of images as you could if you use all of your guests as a photographer: by capturing and gathering their images, you will have the most unique and varied perspective of your event possible.
What’s more, shared photo albums allow these special images to be shared widely. Unlike sending photos to one or two guests via SMS or another messenger service, when images are shared via a shared photo album, each moment of your event can be both gathered by and shared with every event attendee that has access to the shared photo album. This makes sharing images easier than ever before.
Examples of Unique Memories Shared Photo Albums Can Capture
- Whilst everyone else is focusing on the bride, someone may capture a photo of the groom as he sees her for the first time. It’s a moment that every bride would love to treasure forever.
- The proud tears of the mother-of-the-bride as she watches her husband dancing with her daughter. Whilst everyone is looking at the dance floor, this is a rare but precious moment to capture.
- The unique moment a baby cries (or laughs) as water is poured on their head as they are baptised is a widely photographed one, but few people think to take a photograph of the proud parents looking on.
- Grandad teaching granny how to jive on the dance floor at your anniversary party.
- Small children helping themselves to the buffet when no one is looking!
Every laugh, smile, hug, or tender moment between friends and family members young and old can be captured and uniquely preserved for you to treasure forever when you encourage all of your guests to use a shared photo album at your next special event.
