Put simply, snaphappy.co.za is a service that allows the easy sharing of photos taken by family and friends at celebrations, like weddings, into a common pool available on the internet on a website made specially for the celebration.
At the event itself, you get printed cards to leave at the place settings so that guests can have a note to remind themselves of the email and website address to upload and view all the event’s photos.
A snaphappy.co.za website is a great feature for any celebration event, and also makes for a highly original gift.
Other uses for the service include events like school reunions, special birthday bashes, corporate social events to name a few.
How many events have you been to where tons of photos have been taken by friends, but you never get to see them.
Either it’s too much hassle to upload, or certain websites are closed to others (eg. Facebook).
Well this service aims to ‘scratch that itch’. See it as something where the photography is outsourced to the guests. Of course the professional photographer is there to also capture those special shots, but they can’t be everywhere at once. And usually the unposed shots are the best.
A special website is setup just for the celebration. For example, let’s say that John and Sade are getting married.
So we set up a website name (a domain) called www.johnandsade.com. In addition, a special email address is created to enable the easy-peasy uploading of photos to that website. In this case it would be pics@johnandsade.com.
The website is purely designed to act as a photo album, so is very simple in design to ensure ease of use.
Once setup, anyone emailing pictures (as attachments) to the special address will find them auto-magically appearing on the website within a minute. (Since the website address is essentially non-public, privacy issues shouldn’t be a concern, but if so, it is easy to password protect the site.)
