Everything we learned from other people's parties

This is the question that gets half answered on nearly every pricing page in this market. Here is the whole answer: how long with us, when the clock starts running, what happens after that, and how long the others give you.

At a wedding almost nobody asks this. At a company party it is the question procurement gets stuck on, and rightly so, because at a lot of suppliers the answer is nowhere to be found.

Yes. Guests upload all evening and get to see nothing, and you open the album at a moment you choose yourself. The price you pay for it is that those photos are not on the projector that night.

After the party you need two things: pictures for the intranet and the careers page, and the certainty that nobody ends up in a photo who did not want to be. The same setup does both, if you configure it properly.

The fear is not abstract. It is that one photo of a colleague on his fourth glass, posted by a teammate who meant well. You head that off beforehand, not afterwards.

Prices in this market run from nothing to about a hundred and thirty euros per event, and that gap is rarely about the quality of the photos. This guide shows what you are really paying for and which supplier is the better choice for which kind of party.

This is the question you hear the moment you mention a QR code, and it usually gets waved away with a yes that comes too easily. The honest answer has three parts, and the third is the part nobody writes down.

You have already set money aside for a photo booth and now you are wondering whether that is the best place for it. They are two different products, and which one you want depends on what you want to be holding at the end of the night.

On a tournament day there is a row of parents with a phone along every pitch, and by the evening the photos are spread over eight chat groups. This guide is about getting them into one album, who at the club arranges it, and what you do about the children from the opposing team.

At a wedding with eighty guests a shared album runs into three things: your guests have to sign in to add anything, the storage comes out of your own 15 GB, and what you are left with is one strip sorted by date. For a small party it is enough.
