Example systems, devices, media, and methods are described for capturing still images in response to hand gestures detected by an eyewear device that is capturing frames of video data with its camera system. A localization system determines the eyewear location relative to the physical environment. An image processing system detects a hand shape in the video data and determines whether the detected hand shape matches a border gesture or a shutter gesture. In response to a border gesture, the system establishes a border that defines the still image to be captured. In response to a shutter gesture, the system captures a still image from the frames of video data. The system determines a shutter gesture location relative to the physical environment. The captured still image is presented on the display at or near the shutter gesture location, such that the still image appears anchored relative to the physical environment. The captured still image is viewable by other devices that are using the image capture system.
