- Trigger photo capture through GPIO input
- Automatically transfer captured photos to the Pi
- Add an event-specific template overlay (PNG frame) to photos
- Print photos automatically using a Canon PIXMA printer
- Implement a folder-based photo backup system
- Optional: Set up live preview and/or VNC for remote access

Project Goals:

- Ensure a plug-and-play system that is reliable and beginner-friendly

Available Hardware:
- Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB)
- Canon EOS R50 (DSLR)
- Canon PIXMA printer
- HDMI cable, USB trigger cable, and power supply

Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Proficiency in Raspberry Pi setup and configuration
- Experience with DSLR camera integration and photo capture automation
