Corporate events

Your corporate events, as seen by those who were there.

Seminar, year-end party, farewell drinks, inauguration: your colleagues are already taking photos. Fotelya brings their photos and videos together in a shared album, with no app to install and hosting in the European Union.

The problem isn’t a lack of photos

They exist. They’re just scattered across dozens of phones, and they’ll stay there. The next day, the person in charge of internal communications asks for images, receives four via messaging, compressed, and publishes a report illustrated by a photo of the buffet. The best moments of the evening belonged to those who lived them, and no one brought them together.

A professional photo service produces beautiful images, in a curated quantity, from a single perspective. It doesn’t replace the hundreds of moments captured by the participants themselves, especially not those from the final third of the evening, when the photographer has already left.

How it works

I

A QR code in the room

The album is created in minutes, in your company’s colors. The poster with the QR code prints for free from the website and can be placed on tables or at the entrance.

II

Participants upload

They scan, select their photos, and they’re sent. Directly from the browser, no account or installation required. The images appear live on a big screen if the room has one.

III

You retrieve everything

The entire collection downloads in original quality, ready for internal communications, the next seminar, or the year-end video.

The four questions you’ll get internally

Where do our employees’ photos go

This is the first question, and here’s where the answer is clearest: hosting in the European Union, non-public album, non-guessable address, and the ability for the organizer to remove any image at any time. This last feature is what sets an album apart from a messaging group: in a group, once a photo is sent, it’s gone forever, and the commitment made to the team becomes unsustainable.

Do we need to install anything

No. Everything happens in the phone’s browser. Nothing to get approved by IT, nothing to deploy, and no employee has to create an account with their work email to participate in an event.

How do I justify the budget line

A one-time payment per event, with no subscription to renew or long-term commitment. Invoicing is handled by Paddle, our official reseller, who manages applicable VAT and appears as the seller on the receipt.

Will people actually use it

This is the only objection that matters, because a tool no one uses isn’t cheap, it is simply useless. So here’s a real case instead of a promise.

A recorded number, not an average

145photos uploaded
14contributors
1farewell drinks, two hours

These numbers come from a real album and were recorded in that album. The organizer left a public review afterward: “The live photo display on the screens created a wow effect.” Farewell drinks last one to two hours and bring together a team. A year-end party lasts an entire evening and gathers the whole company.

What Fotelya doesn’t do

Let’s be upfront about it:

Your events

Each type of event has its own page, with its unmissable moments and specific questions.

Preparing a year-end party

December event vendors are booked in spring or summer, and venues even earlier. If your date is set, the album can be created now: it waits without consuming anything, the poster is ready to print, and the task comes off your list just as it grows longer.

Frequently asked questions

Are our employees’ photos hosted in Europe?
Yes. Albums and files are hosted in the European Union. The album is not public, and its address is not guessable: only those with the link or QR code can access it. Details of processing and retention periods are outlined in our privacy policy.
Can an employee request a photo of them be removed?
Yes, and that’s the question to ask any provider. The organizer moderates the album and can delete any image at any time. This ensures the commitment made to teams before the event is kept, which a messaging group can never guarantee once the photo is sent.
Do we need to install an app on company phones?
No, and that’s often what unlocks the conversation internally. Everything happens in the browser: scan the QR code, select your photos, and they’re uploaded. No account to create, nothing to get approved by IT.
How is the expense invoiced?
With a one-time payment for the event, no subscription or commitment. Sales and invoicing are handled by Paddle, our official reseller, who manages applicable VAT and appears as the seller on the receipt.
How many photos can we realistically expect?
It depends on the number of participants and the duration. For a farewell drinks event, the album received 145 photos from 14 contributors. This is a real case, recorded in the album, not a calculated average. A year-end party lasts longer and gathers more people.
Can we prepare the album before the event?
Yes, and it’s recommended. The album can be created in advance with your company’s name, colors, and logo. The poster with the QR code can be printed from the site, free of charge. The link can be shared beforehand to gather archives, which is especially valuable for a retirement send-off.
What happens to the photos after the event?
The album has a defined lifespan, and the organizer can download the entire collection in original quality whenever they wish. Nothing is resold, nothing feeds a third-party service.
