We see each other every ten years: this time, we keep everything.
A family gathering or reunion brings together people scattered for years. Fotelya gathers their photos from the day, and their archives, before everyone leaves again.
The problem with reunions
The paradox of reunions: we wait for this moment for years, we live it intensely, then everyone goes home and the photos never circulate. Worse still: the treasures of archives, photos from the previous generation, old summers, ski trips, remain in boxes that no one shares. Yet this is the perfect day to bring everything together.
How Fotelya addresses this
A QR code at the meal
You create the album and place the QR code on the tables: everyone scans it between conversations.
The day AND the archives
Photos from the day, but also old photos scanned or photographed: everything joins the album.
Everyone leaves with everything
The complete album is shared with everyone: the common memory, finally in one place.
What you gain
- Everyone's archives : old photos photographed on site, family treasures reunited.
- The day's group photo : who has become who, portraits of everyone, by everyone.
- An album that survives the day : the connection continues after the event, the memory remains shared.
- All generations : no account, no app, from the eldest to the youngest.
- Original quality : old photos as well as new ones, in full resolution.
Moments not to be missed
A family gathering or reunion brings together people who don’t see each other often, and who each leave with their own photos.
- Arrivals : The first hugs, scattered throughout the morning.
- The group photo : The one everyone wants and that no one sends afterward.
- Gatherings : Conversations in small groups, never captured from a single perspective.
- Archive photos : Many bring old photos: the album is the perfect opportunity to digitize them.
Leave the album open for several weeks: for this type of event, submissions often arrive long after it ends.
How many photos to expect
For a one-day event with 30 to 100 people, expect between five hundred and one thousand five hundred files. Add some extra space for the archive photos participants digitize on site.
