Disposable camera · Intentional coverage
Your guests captured 300 photos.
You saw 12.
Onion assigns every guest a role before your event begins. No moment goes undocumented. No moment is left to chance.
Free to start · No app download for guests · Takes 3 minutes
Remember when every shot
was a moment to cherish?
Discover the joy of
capturing life, one
frame at a time.
“Your guests captured 400 photos. You saw 12.”
The coverage gap nobody talks about.
Shared camera apps let guests shoot freely. That sounds ideal — until you realise the dance floor got 200 shots and the grandparents got zero. No one coordinated. No one was responsible for anything.
Disposable camera apps gave us the shared roll. That was step one. But a shared roll without direction is still chaos.
Onion is step two: every guest arrives knowing exactly what they're there to capture. Directed photography. Complete coverage. No duplicates. No gaps.

The Onion Difference
Everyone arrives with a purpose.
Before your event begins, you assign every guest to a moment. They scan a QR code, enter their number, and their phone tells them exactly what they're there to capture.

Host assigns moments
Add guest phone numbers before the event. Label each one with the moment they own — "Cake cutting," "Arrival shots," "Kids' table." Any moment you care about, assigned to someone who'll be right there.
Guest scans, app recognises them
No app download. No account creation. Guests scan the QR code at the venue, enter their phone number, and Onion surfaces their assignment instantly — along with their shot limit and a brief.
Every moment has an owner
You planned 12 key moments. 12 guests are assigned. All 12 will be captured — not by chance, but by design. Guaranteed coverage, not hopeful coverage.
The process
From planning to reveal —
in four steps.
Create
Name your event, set the reveal timer, and generate your guest QR code in under two minutes.
Assign Roles
Add guest phone numbers and give each person a specific moment to own. The app handles recognition on the day.
Capture Together
Guests scan the QR, see their assignment, and shoot. The film rolls in real-time — locked until reveal.
Reveal
At the moment you chose, the full film unlocks. Every layer of your event, finally visible.
Perfect for
Any event worth remembering.
Weddings
"Assign the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dancing — each to a different family member."
Birthdays
"Every friend group owns a moment. The cake. The speeches. The chaos on the floor."
Group Trips
"One person owns mornings. One owns meals. One owns sunsets. The full trip, covered."
Corporate Events
"Keynote, networking, team dinner — every session documented, no photographer needed."
Graduations
"Family captures the ceremony. Friends capture the after. Nothing overlaps, nothing is missed."
