How to share event photos with a group
Create a private gallery, share one link, and let everyone find the photos they're in with a selfie — no app to install and no endless scrolling. Here's the whole process.
Why it beats a group chat
- One link for the whole group — works on any phone, no app install
- Selfie search so each guest sees only the photos they're in
- Full-resolution HD downloads instead of compressed chat copies
- Private photos, expiring links and PIN options keep control with you
- Group events let everyone add their own photos to one gallery
Step by step
- 1
Create an event gallery
Sign in to Picsta and create an event for your wedding, party, trip or get-together. It gives you one private gallery to hold every photo.
- 2
Upload your photos
Add photos from your phone or computer. You can upload in HD for full-resolution downloads, or as optimised photos to save space.

Get a shareable link
Open the event and tap Share → Get shareable link, then pick how long it stays live. Copy the link.
- 4
Send the link to everyone
Paste the link into WhatsApp, email or a group chat. Anyone who opens it can view the gallery — no Picsta account or app install needed.

Let guests find themselves
Guests tap Find Me and upload a selfie; the gallery instantly filters to just the photos they appear in, so nobody has to scroll through thousands of pictures.
Frequently asked questions
Do my guests need to install an app or create an account?
No. Anyone with the link can open the gallery in their browser and view or download photos without installing an app or signing up.
How do people find the photos they're in?
Each guest taps Find Me and uploads a selfie once. Picsta's face search returns only the photos that include them, so they skip scrolling through the whole gallery.
What if everyone wants to add their own photos?
Create a group event instead of a regular one. Every member can upload into the same shared gallery, and each person keeps their own copy of the event that they control.
Can I stop people from seeing certain photos?
Yes. You can mark photos private so they're hidden from a shared link, and links can be set to expire or be revoked at any time.
Can guests download the photos?
Yes — guests can download single photos or the whole gallery at the resolution you uploaded. Upload in HD if you want full-resolution downloads.
