For the christening

All the photos of the christening in one album

In church the godmother takes pictures, over coffee and cake the grandparents do, and in the end everyone has a few – but nobody has them all. With a QR code on the table, every guest’s photos and videos land in your christening album.

  • Free to start
  • No app for guests
  • Original quality
  • Servers in Germany

An album that suits the occasion

The christening is quiet and solemn, the party afterwards is cheerful. The album suits both.

  • Photos in original quality

    Every photo arrives as the phone took it, videos up to 500 MB. Nothing is shrunk like in a chat group.

  • You decide who sees the photos

    You decide whether guests see each other’s photos. Before the first upload they confirm that they only upload pictures of children with the parents’ consent.

  • For the whole family

    Invite the godparents as co-hosts. Grandparents who could not come look at the shared gallery at home.

How it works

Two minutes to set up, one card for the table.

  1. 1

    Before the christening

    • Create the album

      Choose “Christening” and enter the baby’s name. The album is then called “Milas Taufe”, for example.

    • Send the link

      Send the link with the invitation; print the table card for the party afterwards.

  2. 2

    On the day

    • Scan and upload

      Guests scan the code, enter their name and upload photos and videos – the grandparents too.

    • Later in the afternoon

      The shared gallery shows what the others photographed. The slideshow runs on the TV if you like.

  3. 3

    Afterwards

    • Latecomers

      Guests can still upload days later, until the date you set.

    • Download and keep

      Download everything as a ZIP in original quality. On the Standard plan the album stays available for 12 months.

What the christening album can do

  • No app, no account

    Guests open their camera, scan the code and upload. It works for grandma and grandpa, too.

  • You have the last word

    Mark favourites, hide blurry shots, delete what does not belong. Whether guests see each other’s photos is up to you.

  • Everything as a ZIP

    Download the whole album, just your favourites or one guest’s photos, neatly named by time of day.

  • Printable table card

    With the name of the event, the QR code and, if you like, the PIN – ready to print in A5 or A6 and styled for the occasion.

  • Manage together

    Invite family, friends or colleagues as co-hosts, so you do not have to keep an eye on everything alone during the party.

  • Live slideshow

    Show new photos on a projector or TV while the party is still on. They appear automatically shortly after being uploaded.

Tips for the christening

How the photos of the day really come together.

  1. 1

    One person in church

    Ask the godmother or godfather to take photos during the ceremony – and ask the parish first whether that is allowed. The guests take photos at the party.

  2. 2

    Table card at the cake

    Everyone has time over coffee and cake after the christening. One table card at the cake buffet is enough; lots of photos are taken in that hour.

  3. 3

    Share the gallery with the family

    Share the gallery so grandparents and godparents see each other’s photos. The originals still only go to you and whoever uploaded the photo.

  4. 4

    A thank-you the day after

    A short message with the link collects the photos that are still on the phones.

Your photos are yours. And they stay in Germany.

Every celebration creates pictures of people who matter to you. We treat them with the care they deserve.

Servers in Germany
Your photos, videos and album data are stored with Google Cloud in Frankfurt am Main.
Your photos belong to you
We show no ads, sell no data and run no face recognition over your pictures. Photos and videos exist for your album only.
Where a photo was taken stays private
Other guests only see a preview of each photo, with the location and camera data removed. The original goes only to you, your co-hosts and the person who uploaded it. Videos, however, are shown to other guests in the original.
Deleted means deleted
Remove a photo and the file is deleted for good, immediately. A whole album takes a few hours at most. There is no hidden recycle bin.
Privacy in detail (German)
