Why Instant, Personal Photo Delivery Is the New Gold Standard for Events
At the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic, a guest stepped off the red carpet and was just settling into the champagne garden when their phone buzzed. It wasn’t a generic update — it was a photo. A perfectly framed, golden-hour shot of them arriving, glasses clinking, sunlight bouncing off the iconic yellow umbrellas.
Moments after it was taken, the image had already arrived in their WhatsApp inbox — professionally shot, beautifully composed, and completely personal.
No app. No gallery browsing. No waiting.
That’s the kind of magic that turns a great event into an unforgettable one — and it’s what Impulse delivers, in real time.
Why It Matters
Event photography hasn’t evolved much in decades. Crowds still dig through online galleries, download links get lost in inboxes, and the magic of the moment fades before the photos arrive.
Impulse changes that.
Impulse delivers photos in real time, to the right person, via WhatsApp or SMS — and place them inside a private gallery built just for them.
Why this is a game-changer:
Drives emotional connection by delivering photos when they’re still fresh in the mind
Increases sharing rates by removing friction — no logins, no apps
Builds trust by giving each guest their own private, secure gallery
Boosts perceived event value and leaves a lasting impression
According to Eventbrite, 78% of attendees say they’re more likely to share professional photos from an event if they receive them quickly and personally. And a Stackla study found that 79% of people say user-generated content (like event photos) highly impacts their brand perception — but only when it feels authentic and personal.
How It Works
Guests are invited to register at the start of the experience with just a selfie and phone number.
Impulse uses facial recognition to detect each guest in real-time as photos are taken.
Relevant photos are delivered instantly via WhatsApp or SMS, with no need for the guest to search or download anything.
Each guest has access to a personal gallery, containing only the photos they’re in — secure, branded, and automatically updated throughout the event.
The experience feels thoughtful, elegant, and frictionless — like magic in their pocket.
