PROOF BEHIND THE PROCESS

Event logistics first

Setup area, schedule, attendee flow, venue access, and delivery expectations are handled before event day.

ON SITE

Built for real venues

The mobile setup works in conference rooms, lobbies, hotel ballrooms, expo floors, and temporary activation areas.

FILES

Attendee-ready portraits

Each selected image is prepared for LinkedIn, speaker bios, membership directories, internal profiles, and press use.

Choose the setup

Match the station to the event flow.

Most conference requests fall into one of three simple setups. The quote depends on headcount, hours, delivery speed, and whether the station is attendee-only or sponsor-branded.

Known headcount

Scheduled attendee portraits

Best when the attendee count is clear. We use the headcount to plan the station window, staffing, and attendee delivery workflow.

Open station

Flat-rate event window

Best when attendees walk up throughout the day. Use a flat day rate when the final count is flexible or the station is a sponsor perk.

Sponsor activation

Branded experience

Add sponsor signage, branded delivery language, custom backdrop direction, or sign-in data capture when the station supports a booth or activation goal.

Investment
