Static or dynamic: Picking the perfect QR Code for your wedding photos

You can create a free static QR Code for wedding photos using Uniqode. But there’s a downside.

With static QR Codes, you will not be able to:

1. Edit or modify your gallery if you uploaded a picture by mistake or want to add more
2. Track QR Code scans to see how many times your wedding photos have been viewed
3. Invite your wedding guests to upload their clicks to the album 

You’ll have to create a new QR Code and reprint it if you wish to do any of the above. Dynamic QR Codes can save you all that stress and printing costs in such cases. With dynamic QR Codes, you can: 

1. Retain your flexibility to easily fix your photo album anytime
2. Engage wedding guests by inviting them to view and upload their photos to your album at their convenience, even days or weeks after the wedding
3. Password-restrict the QR Code to protect the privacy of your client’s wedding photos

You can easily share dynamic QR Codes across wedding materials such as wedding website, invitation card, or a wedding banner at the venue and ensure scannability at all times.
