—For the office Christmas party

The office party is over — now it's decided what happens to the photos

The office Christmas party is the one night a year the workforce meets outside of work. The later the evening, the more relaxed everyone gets.

Those relaxed shots happen late — and mostly stay on private phones instead of ending up anywhere internal comms can actually find them the next morning.

What ends up in the intranet the next morning — and what doesn’t

The shots from the evening are both material for the year-end review and photos nobody wants to stumble across in a bigger distribution list uninvited. That’s not a contradiction, as long as it’s clear who can actually see the gallery.

The gallery isn't publicly accessible — only whoever received the code for the evening can open it. As the host, you decide how long it stays up and who keeps access afterward, not a group chat that got out of hand.

How access and storage work at office parties

Bring it up once, before the party

Whether photos from the evening can be used internally afterward is a question that usually comes up at office parties anyway — easiest to settle before the evening starts, instead of asking afterward for individual photos to be pulled from a group chat.

A short announcement before dinner is enough: whoever doesn't want to appear in any photo says so now, no explanation needed. That heads off the discussion that otherwise starts once a photo has already been forwarded.

    Table signs before doors open

    The code is already on every table before the first guests arrive — nobody has to go looking for it.

    2

    Announcement before dinner

    A short announcement explains the gallery and that opting out of photos is fine, no reason needed.

    Gallery ready the next day

    The gallery is complete the next day — sort calmly through what fits the intranet or the year-end review.
