Hi there!!
The best answer is that it depends. It depends on which events you would like to have good shots from - if you want good shots from the Ceremony, of you as couple, of the first dance etc, the minimum amount of hours to get those will depend on your timeline for the day - ie, the time from the start of your ceremony up until your first dance. If you want good shots only from the ceremony, the minimum amount of hours will depend on the length of your ceremony. And of course it would also depend on the photographer you choose - some offer shorter packages, but others only offer long packages, and if you decide on a photographer, you will be bound by the shortest amount of hours they offer. Hope this helps!
Hello and thanks for your query. Our service is different to the traditional photographer so there are no minimum hours. Bestever.pics is a simple way to bring joy to your Wedding by enabling your guests, family and friends to share all the pics and vids they took on their phones simply by scanning a QR Code. There's no app or registration and all phones work.
As a Couple, you'll get original sized pics and vids to download when you like afterwards, without having to chase everyone down. And the best part, which brings enormous JOY is the shareable Photo Gallery. It's all in real time as people upload. The Gallery can. even be shared with people who couldn't make it. If you choose you can keep it private.
To enable all of this, all you need to do is pop over to our website and purchase a QR Code. Print it out, tell everyone about it and you're good to go. The account is live from the moment you purchase it. You can even start collecting behind the scenes pics prior to the big day. Just go to the Host Dashboard and click the Copy Link button. You can then send it around by text, and email.
We'd love to be part of you plan and feel free to message us with any more questions.
Love from Gabi
Hi there! Thanks so much for the question. It depends on a few things. For instance the size of your wedding! If you were eloping with your partner then a smaller package of between 2-4 hours would be more than enough. However if you were having a bigger wedding, wanted to capture moments of each part of the day (as you both get ready in the morning, the ceremony, family photos, bridal party photos and the reception) then we recommend between 8-10 hours. Every couple and every wedding is different and we always recommend the best package based on your day. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me on 0401 451 199.

Hi there!
Thank you for your question, it’s a great one! The minimum hours really depend on the size and style of your wedding and the moments you’d love captured.
For a smaller, intimate wedding or elopement, 3–4 hours is usually enough to cover the key moments like the ceremony, some portraits, and a few candid shots. However, if you’re planning a full-day wedding and want to capture everything—from getting ready through to the reception and first dance—I’d recommend 8–10 hours to ensure we don’t miss any of those special memories.
Every wedding is unique, so I’d love to hear more about your plans to help suggest the best coverage for you. Feel free to reach out to arrange an obligation-free session if you’d like me to guide you through some package options.
Warm regards,
