The person behind WedSnap
I'm Andy. I built WedSnap because too many brilliant wedding photos never reach the couple.
I've photographed weddings since 2008. WedSnap came from a problem I kept seeing again and again on real wedding days.
Where it came from
Honestly, it started with photos being left on people's phones
I've photographed weddings since 2008, and one thing I've seen over and over again is just how many great photos never make it back to the couple.
A friend gets a brilliant reaction during the speeches. Someone on the next table catches a ridiculous moment on the dance floor. A family member records a short video that means far more to the couple than they probably realised at the time.
Then the wedding finishes, everybody goes home, and those photos sit on phones.
The couple might see a few on Facebook or get some sent through WhatsApp. They might spend the next three weeks asking people to send everything over. A lot of it simply gets forgotten.
That's really where WedSnap came from.
I wasn't trying to disrupt the wedding industry. I just wanted to solve one really obvious problem properly.
How do you make it ridiculously easy for guests to send the photos and videos already sitting on their phones?
Keep the guest bit simple
Scan. Choose the photos. Upload.
I didn't want guests downloading another app, creating another account or trying to remember another password.
At a wedding you've got people using iPhones, Android phones and everything in between. You've also got people with very different levels of confidence with technology.
The guest side needed to be almost stupidly simple. Scan the QR code, choose the files and upload them.
That's still the bit of WedSnap I care about most.
No guest account
Nobody has to register just to send a wedding photo.
One clear place to upload
The couple is not hunting through group chats and individual messages.
It doesn't replace your photographer
I'm a wedding photographer. I would never pretend guest photos do the same job.
Professional wedding photography and guest photos are completely different things.
Your photographer is responsible for creating a dependable record of the day. The portraits, the ceremony, the family groups, the moments we know we need to be ready for.
Guests see a different wedding.
They're sitting at the tables. They're in the bar. They're next to an old friend when they see each other for the first time in years. They're filming the awful dancing at eleven o'clock at night.
I built WedSnap to collect those bits as well. Not instead of the professional photographs. Alongside them.
A bit about me
Photographer first. Website builder because I apparently don't know when to stop.
I'm based in Hampshire and I've worked as a photographer and videographer for more than 20 years. I started photographing weddings in 2008.
I also build websites and digital systems, so when I kept coming back to this guest-photo problem, I eventually did the obvious thing and built something to fix it.
WedSnap is still something I work on directly. I see the feedback, I look at how people use it and I keep changing the bits that can be made clearer or easier.
It isn't a giant faceless wedding-tech company. At the moment, if something about WedSnap needs fixing or improving, there's a very good chance I'm the person looking at it.
That's WedSnap
One small wedding-day problem, solved properly
Guests are already taking the photos. WedSnap simply gives them one easy place to send them.
That's the whole idea.
