Questions, answered.
Do guests need to install an app?
No. Guests scan the QR code or open the link, take a selfie in their browser, and see the photos they're in. Photos also reach them on WhatsApp.
How soon do guests get their photos?
As soon as they're uploaded. With Beam, photos go from your camera to the gallery while you keep shooting, and guests are notified as they appear.
Do my originals leave my computer when I cull?
No. AI Culling runs on your own machine and works offline. You publish only the photos you choose.
Is my branding on everything?
Yes. Your studio name and branding appear on the gallery, the guest photos, the reels and the TV app.
Can I use just one product?
Yes. Each product works on its own. The bundle puts all of them on one subscription.
Your next wedding, start to finish.
Create the event, print the QR, and shoot. FotoOwl handles the rest of the story.
