Who this is for
The booth people line up for.
Most event giveaways end up in a drawer. A professional headshot ends up on LinkedIn the same week, with your event attached to the memory. That is why a headshot booth is usually the busiest spot on the floor.
This is a photographer with studio lighting, not a self-serve kiosk. Every attendee is directed, so the results look like a booked session.
Conferences
A value-add attendees talk about, placed near registration or in the expo hall.
Trade show exhibitors
A reason for the right people to stop at your booth and stay for a conversation.
Company events & town halls
Update the entire team in one day while everyone is already in the building.
Sales kickoffs
Send every rep back into the field with a current, consistent portrait.
Associations & chambers

Give job seekers and graduates a professional portrait to start with.
Recent work

How it works
Set up once, runs all day.
The booth arrives as a complete portable studio: lighting, backdrop, and a photographer who directs every person. Setup takes about forty-five minutes and fits in a corner of the expo hall, a breakout room, or beside registration.
Attendees step in for a couple of minutes each. Afterward, each person receives a finished, retouched portrait, and a branded delivery gallery is available so your event or sponsor stays attached to every image. The booth scales to hundreds of people across a day.
