A digital disposable camera instead of Instax or Polaroid
Instax, Polaroid and disposable cameras are charming, but every shot costs film, cameras go missing, and paper prints are hard to turn into one shared album. VIZU gives you the same “everyone is a photographer” feeling digitally: guests’ phones are the camera, the film is unlimited.
Free up to 10 guests · No card required
No film cost, no lost cameras
Instax film costs a fair amount per shot and disposable cameras must be developed – even the failed shots cost money. VIZU has no film: you set how many photos each guest can take.
The disposable-camera magic stays
Set the gallery to open later – as if you were waiting for the film to be developed. Guests can add a short message to each photo, like a Polaroid guest book.
When is Instax still better?
If a physical, instantly developed print matters (e.g. for a paper guest book), Instax is a good choice. VIZU photos are digital but can be printed any time – the two work well together.
Photo booth, Instax or Polaroid for an event?
In short: if you want instantly printed, posed photos in one spot, a photo booth is a good choice. If you want physical retro prints, Instax or Polaroid. If you want every guest’s photos – candid moments from the whole event – in one shared album without rental or film costs, VIZU is the simplest. They can be combined.

„The best part was the reveal time: the gallery only opened at noon the next day, so we were crying with laughter at the photos over our hungover coffee.”
„I literally created the VIZU event in two minutes, sent the link to our Messenger group and the shared album was up and running. Dead simple.”
