QR Photo Sharing: The Smartest Way to Collect Event Photos

A single printed QR code on your table can replace the need for a second photographer, a shared album, or a social media hashtag. Here's how it works and why it's becoming the standard.

How QR Photo Sharing Works

A QR code encodes a unique URL for your private gallery. Guests scan it with their phone camera — it opens directly in the browser. No app. No password. Just upload.

Where to Place Your QR Code

Table cards, entrance signage, the photo wall, the bar, reception desks — anywhere guests naturally have their phones out. Multiple placements mean more contributions.

QR Codes vs. Hashtags

Social media hashtags are public, unorganized, and require guests to post publicly. QR galleries are private, curated, and available only to your event community.

Getting Your QR Code with Vellon

Your event QR code is generated instantly when you create a Vellon gallery. Download it as a PNG and print it at any size — it's included at no extra cost.
