How Pixsie works
Three steps
I
Create your event
One field, and you have a gallery and a QR code. Nothing to install and nothing to pay.
II
Put the code out
Print it for the tables, add it to the invitations, or just send the link. Guests scan with the camera app they already have.
III
Collect and download
Photos land in your gallery as they arrive, and you take the whole set away in one archive.
