Frequently Asked Questions

What type of photo booth is best for a corporate brand activation?

The AI Photo Booth is our top recommendation for brand activations — it transforms guests into custom AI-generated scenes featuring your brand. For trade shows, Trading Card booths create collectible cards with attendee info. For conferences, our Headshot Station provides professional portraits with branded backgrounds.

Can you add our company logo to the photos?

Absolutely. Every photo — whether printed or shared digitally — features your custom overlay with company logo, event name, date, and any other branding you need. We also offer branded step-and-repeat backdrops, custom start screens, and branded props.

How does the data capture work?

Guests enter their email address at the booth to receive their digital photos. This builds your marketing list with opted-in contacts. After the event, you receive a full analytics report with total sessions, emails collected, social shares, and peak activity times.

What is the ROI of a corporate photo booth?

A typical corporate photo booth generates 200-500 branded impressions per hour through prints and social shares. With email capture, you can collect 50-150 leads per event. Many clients see a cost per impression under $0.50 and a cost per lead under $15 — significantly better than digital advertising for in-person events.
