Ways to collect wedding photos, compared
Shared albums, LINE and Google Photos, film cameras. We've set out what each one costs and how it works, from each company's official information (checked October 30, 2026).
First, they fall into two types
Collect afterward: shared albums, LINE Albums, Google Photos. Guests take photos with their own cameras and upload them after the wedding. Videos can be collected too, but guests still have the extra step of sending them.
Shoot on the spot: Moments, Utsurundesu, instax. Photos taken with the cameras you provide go straight to the couple. Moments turns guests' phones into the camera, so there are no cameras to hand out and no film to develop.
