Event headshots,
powered by AI.
Draw a crowd with a turn-key AI photobooth that delivers studio-quality headshots in seconds, then turns the line into qualified pipeline with lead capture, branding, and retargeting.
One 30-second selfie.
A gallery they'll use for years.
No lighting rig, no photographer, no retakes. Guests snap a selfie and walk away with a set of polished, on-brand headshots they actually want on LinkedIn.
Need marketing ROI?
Add-ons that pay for the booth.
Most photo tools stop at a pretty picture. Ours bakes in lead qualification, branding, and optional retargeting, so the line becomes a measurable channel your marketing team relies on.
Lead qualification, without the dropoff
Configure lead qualification questions for guests to answer before getting their headshots:
While the industry average completion rate for lead qualification forms hovers around 30%, our AI photobooth hits 90–100%, because a professional headshot is a premium gift guests actually want.
Your photobooth line becomes a warm pipeline of verified, enriched contacts.
Landing page redirect
Automatically redirect attendees to your landing page after their photo session, so they continue the event experience right in your funnel, while intent is highest.
Built-in pixel retargeting
Applicable if you're already running Google, LinkedIn, or Meta ads. Add pixel retargeting to your photobooth microsite, so your post-event campaigns naturally reach the same firms that queued for headshots.
Social amplification package
Turn every attendee into a brand ambassador with branded share cards, before/after reels, and a social proof aggregator that compounds organic reach long after the event.
Live slideshow wall
Project a real-time gallery of attendee headshots on a branded monitor. It draws a crowd, keeps the booth the busiest stop on the floor, and puts your brand on constant on-screen display.
The rare event gift attendees keep, share, and remember.
A studio-quality headshot is the one giveaway people actually want, so they line up for it, talk about it, and use it for years after the event.
A gift they keep
Retire the tote bags and stress balls. A polished headshot is something people need and reach for repeatedly, on LinkedIn, Slack, email signatures, speaker bios. That high perceived value is the engine of the whole thing: people will wait in line and hand over a work email for something they'd otherwise pay a photographer for.
The busiest booth on the floor
A free professional headshot is a proven crowd magnet. The line itself becomes social proof, people photograph it, talk about it, pull colleagues over. Your booth becomes the destination instead of one more table to walk past.
Effortless to run, instant at scale
This is the AI edge over a traditional photographer booth. No photographer, no lighting rig, no appointment slots, no week-long editing turnaround. One selfie, studio results in seconds, running on a tablet or a QR code, scaling to thousands with no bottleneck and no line cap.
The details other AI booths skip.
Everything below is designed to make your activation feel premium, from the queue to the share.

Built-in pixel retargeting
Applicable if you're running LinkedIn, Google, or Meta ads.
A retargeting pixel lets you build an ad segment from the attendees who engaged with your photobooth experience, so you can tailor campaigns, copy, and more.
It's invaluable if you're planning account-based marketing with the leads from your event.
Just copy the retargeting pixel snippet from your LinkedIn, Google, or Meta admin console, and we'll install it in your photobooth for you.
