A polished activity between the formal moments

Guests can browse during cocktails, participate before or after the main program, and collect portraits later in the evening. Elegant, playful, cultural, travel, sports, and cinematic choices let different guests take part without forcing one visual treatment on the room.

Planned Around the Program

We review the run of show before the event and recommend when browsing, photography, approval, and pickup should happen.

Suitable for Groups

Table groups, families, colleagues, honourees, and friends can take one together, with an initial full-size copy for every person pictured.

Presentation Can Be Planned

Approved event names, dates, sponsor marks, or campaign details can be considered for menus or sleeves and quoted in advance.

How it works

Easy to join without leaving the event behind

Guests can browse by QR while seated or circulating, then bring a favourite number to the booth when the event schedule allows.

Planning your event

Start with the run of show

Share the venue, guest count, cocktail period, dinner and program timing, fundraising moments, and any sponsor requirements. We use those details to recommend service time and placement.

Event pricing

$1,750 for two hours

Additional time is $500 per hour. We recommend the event length after reviewing your guest count and schedule.

When should portraits be available during a gala?+

That depends on the run of show. Cocktails, transitions, and the period after the main program can work well, but the final plan should account for speeches, auctions, awards, dinner service, and guest movement.

Can sponsors or the event be recognized?+

Approved names, dates, colours, or sponsor marks can be planned for selected presentation materials such as the guest menu or sleeves. Custom branding is confirmed and quoted in advance.

Can a table group take one portrait together?+

Yes. The photographed group determines exactly who appears, and the initial print quantity matches the number of people pictured.

Will the portrait booth interrupt the formal program?+

It should not. The placement, open times, guest messaging, and pickup plan are coordinated around the program before the event.

What does the venue need to provide?+

The venue needs to approve a suitable photography and pickup area, access to power, reliable internet or cellular-backup permission, and the agreed access and setup times.

What does the starting package cost?+

The published starting price is $1,750 CAD for two event hours, with additional event time at $500 per hour.
