Photo Scavenger Hunts
Turn your guests into photographers with a simple game
Most tools stop at “here’s a place to dump photos.” With Gather Shot, you can add a light scavenger hunt that gently nudges guests to capture the moments you actually care about.
You write up to 15 prompts like “Take a photo with the groom” or “Find something red on the dance floor.” Guests see the list when they open your gallery, tap a prompt, and upload. You end up with real memories, not just random selfies.
What this looks like at your event:
- Create your scavenger hunt list when you set up the event.
- Print the same QR code on table cards, programs, or signs.
- Guests scan, pick a prompt, and snap a photo on their phone.
- You see uploads roll in and know you’ve covered the moments you didn’t want to miss.
Scavenger hunts are included with Pro events and available as an add-on for others.
Interactive Scavenger Hunts
Gamify your event with photo scavenger hunts.
Here are the kinds of prompts hosts like you use:
- • A selfie with the couple
- • The best dance move on the floor
- • A photo with someone you just met
- • Your favorite detail in the room
- • The last song of the night
Guests don’t need to learn anything new. They scan your QR code like normal, see the prompts, and start playing along. No extra apps, no complicated rules— just a simple way to make sure the moments you care about actually get captured.
