Upload photos live while you shoot

Guests scan the QR code and see photos taken minutes ago. Here is how to set it up.

Quick setup (laptop at the venue)

1

Create your event

Open your dashboard, create the event, and print the QR code for tables or the entrance.

2

Set your camera to RAW + small JPEG

Your full RAW files stay safe on the memory card. Small JPEGs travel fast and are perfect for guests.

3

Connect the camera to a laptop

Use a USB cable or the camera's Wi-Fi with its free app (see below). Set the app to save photos into one folder, for example Desktop/LiveWedding.

4

Turn on Live auto-upload

Open the event in Chrome or Edge, click Start — only new photos under "Live auto-upload", and pick that same folder. Allow the browser to view the folder when asked.

5

Shoot as usual

Each new photo uploads within a few seconds. Keep the laptop awake, plugged in, and the event tab open.

Camera apps

Canon

EOS Utility (USB or Wi-Fi). Preferences → Destination Folder.

Sony

Imaging Edge Desktop → Remote. Set the save folder in settings.

Nikon

NX Tether (USB) or Wireless Transmitter Utility.

Lightroom Classic tethering, Capture One, or a Wi-Fi SD card (like ezShare) also work — anything that drops JPEGs into a folder.

Uploading from your phone

Phones can't watch a folder automatically. Send photos from the camera to your phone with Canon Camera Connect, Sony Creators' App or Nikon SnapBridge, then open the event on your phone and tap the upload box to add the latest batch.
