# Gather photos and memories for a funeral or celebration of life

> DropSnaps gives a funeral, wake or celebration of life its own private photo page. Family and friends add photos and memories from their phone with one link or QR code, with no app or account. The family can approve everything before it's shown, play a slideshow at the gathering, read every message, and download every photo to keep. It's free for up to 50 photos.

## How it works

1. **Create the page.** Choose "Funeral or memorial" and it starts with gentle moment tags such as "Old photos", "Memories" and "Family".
2. **Share one link.** Send it with the details of the service, so photos and messages arrive in time. Add a PIN if you'd like it kept private.
3. **Show them, and keep them.** Play a slideshow at the gathering, then download every photo for the family.

## What you get

- **Old photos welcome:** People can photograph prints on their phone and share them the same way as new ones.
- **Approval before showing:** Turn it on and nothing appears until the family has seen it.
- **Memories in words:** Friends leave messages in the guest book, which the family can read at their own pace.
- **For those who can't travel:** Anyone with the link can share photos and messages from wherever they are.
- **Private by choice:** Add a PIN, and turn off "Findable by name" so the page is only reached through your link.
- **A copy to keep:** Download everything in full quality, so the family has every photo.

## Making it easy for everyone

Older relatives are often the people with the most precious photos. Send them the link by text or email, or ask a younger family member to sit with them and upload their favourites. Photos can be added before the service, during the gathering and afterwards, for as long as the page is kept. For ideas for the day itself, see our guide to [celebration of life ideas](https://dropsnaps.com/guides/celebration-of-life-ideas).
