What I have learned setting these nights up. The advice works whatever you use — GuestCam gets a mention only where it genuinely changes the answer.

What to put on a school program for photo sharing

The wording, the placement and the size that get families scanning rather than squinting.

Most function centres have a projector and no television. Here is the setup that works, and the settings that ruin it.

The difference between eight people sharing and fifty is not the app. It is five small things on the night.

Every way couples try to gather their guests’ photos, what each one is good at, and where each one quietly falls over.

How big to print the code, what the card should say, and the five places guests actually scan it.

Why asking for photos afterwards never works, and what to do on the night instead.

What actually comes back from the lab, and how guests’ own phones compare.

Grandparents overseas, a friend in hospital: the ways to let them watch as it happens.

TV or projector, where to put it, when to start and pause it, and whether to approve photos first.
