Once is a guest disposable camera perfect for weddings, parties, and trips. Guests join by QR, take limited shots, and share all photos together in a private gallery.
How Once Works:
1. Create a film for your event and set the rules
2. Share a QR code or link so guests can join in seconds (No download needed for guests)
3. Everyone shoots in the moment with limited shots per person
4. Photos unlock together at the time you choose, ready to relive and save
Why Hosts Choose Once:
- QR join, no friction: Guests can join with or without the app via App Clip.
- Shared camera for the whole group: Centralize every candid and POV in one place.
- Limited shots = better photos: Scarcity encourages thoughtful, story-driven captures.
- Delayed reveal: Unlock photos at event end or a custom time to keep guests present.
- Private by default: You control access, visibility, and downloads.
- Host controls: Set shot limits, reveal mode (instant or delayed), and participant caps.
- Download everything: Save full galleries to your device or archive them for later.
- Beautiful “film” feel: Subtle, tasteful looks that keep skin tones and ambience true.
Perfect For:
- Weddings and receptions
- Bachelor/Bachelorette parties and showers
- Birthdays and reunions
- Group trips and retreats
- Team offsites
- School events, clubs, and fundraisers
We Care About Your Privacy:
Your event gallery is private by default and controlled by the host. We do not sell your data. See our Privacy Policy at once.film/privacy.

Everyone at our wedding had sooo much fun using Once! We had a photo contest using it and even my grandparents joined in 😂 Loved it so much that 3 of my best friends who are planning their weddings for next year plan to use it too!

Kathy a bride? Shut up!
This app is great and easy to use and also very cheap my bachelorette party didn’t have a photographer but everyone was one for the event who he’s I loved seeing everyone’s pictures.
Watermark Should Be Optional / Paid To Remove

Really liked the UI and playing around with this camera! However the once watermark on all exported photos wasn’t ideal for me / didn’t fit my preferences. Ended up going with a different app for my event!
