For photographers
Deliver the whole wedding to every guest. Tonight.
Picsta is built first for wedding and event photographers. One link carries your brand to every guest, every guest finds their own photos with a selfie, and the "where are my photos?" messages stop. No app, no account, no scrolling past two thousand pictures.
What you deliver
- One branded link for the whole event: your studio name, logo, Instagram and website on every guest page, and a Photos by credit under the gallery.
- An Enquire button on your galleries that opens WhatsApp or your booking page, so the guest who finds themselves knows who to book.
- Your name in the short link and on the WhatsApp preview when clients forward it.
- Proofing links: watermarked previews until the client pays; mark the link paid and the same link delivers full quality.
- Original files exactly as exported, location data removed, with a photo storage pool on Premium and Elite.
- Sub-events that keep a multi-day wedding tidy in one link: mehendi, sangeet, ceremony, reception.
- Curated selections you can share on their own link, and add to or trim later without resending.
- Bulk download for guests and clients, zipped on the fly, and a flip-through photo book with PDF export.
What the guest sees
A gallery that looks like the event, not a folder. It opens on a full-bleed cover with the event name, an intro photo framed for each device with face-aware placement, then a dark edge-to-edge mosaic of the day. A Find Me button stays within reach: one selfie, and the gallery shows only the photos and video clips that guest is in. They download in full quality, save the event to their own account if they want, and come back months later because the link does not expire.
Upload from your Mac, not a browser tab
- Picsta Uploader for Mac lives in the menu bar and uploads a whole folder, thousands of photos at a time.
- Watch a folder: export from Lightroom or copy a card into it, and new photos upload by themselves.
- Gallery copies go first so the link can be shared within minutes; originals follow in the background.
- Carries on through Wi-Fi drops and restarts, and never sends a photo twice.
- Browser uploads are fast too: parallel, resumable, with duplicates refused.
The uploader is free with every account. Get it at picsta.app/uploader.
Alongside your studio suite, or instead of its gallery
Picsta does not sell prints or handle contracts and invoices. Pixieset, Pic-Time and ShootProof do, and many photographers keep one of them for the couple's paperwork. What those suites do not do is deliver to the other three hundred people at the wedding, each wanting only their own photos. That is the job Picsta is built for, and for many photographers it then takes over the gallery side entirely.
What it costs
Professional accounts choose a yearly plan sized by photo count, billed in rupees, pounds or dollars. There are no per-photo fees, no per-gigabyte meter and no commission. Logo and Enquire come with every professional account; proofing links, bulk download and email sharing from Advanced; original files and the photo storage pool on Premium and Elite. The free plan covers 1,500 photos, enough to deliver a real event and decide.

Frequently asked questions
What does Picsta do for a professional photographer?
It delivers a whole wedding or event to every guest from one link. The link carries your studio name, logo, social links and an Enquire button. Each guest uploads one selfie and sees only the photos and clips they are in, in any browser, with no app or account. You get proofing links, original-file delivery, sub-events for multi-day weddings, a Mac uploader that watches your export folder, bulk download and a flip-through photo book.
Does Picsta replace Pixieset, Pic-Time or ShootProof?
For delivery, yes. Picsta does not sell prints or handle contracts and invoices, so many photographers keep a suite for the couple's paperwork and use Picsta for the gallery and the guest list. Side-by-side pages: picsta.app/compare.
How fast can I deliver after the wedding?
The same night. Export your edited JPEGs, point Picsta Uploader for Mac at the folder or upload from the browser, and send the link. Gallery copies go first so the link can be shared within minutes; originals follow in the background on professional plans.
Can I charge the client before they download?
Yes. Put a link in proofing: guests and the couple see watermarked previews until you mark the link paid, and then the same link delivers full quality. Nothing to resend.
Do guests need the Picsta app?
No. Guests open your link in any browser on any phone. The free Picsta app for iPhone is for you, the photographer or host, to run events; guests never need it.
How is Picsta priced for photographers?
Professional accounts choose a yearly plan sized by photo count, billed in rupees, pounds or dollars, with no per-photo fees and no commission. Logo and Enquire come with every professional account; proofing links, bulk download and email sharing from the Advanced plan; original files and the photo storage pool on Premium and Elite. Current prices: picsta.app/pricing.
Where are the photos stored and who can see them?
Galleries are private by default. You choose who gets the link, can protect it with a PIN, set an expiry or revoke it, and mark photos private. Guests can remove their selfie at any time. Original files are stored with location data removed.
