Experiential Marketing in NYC

New York is the most competitive event market in the country. Brand launches, client dinners, conferences and office celebrations all compete for the same attention, and guests expect more than a backdrop and a printer.

We are not a basic photo booth company. Every activation is customized, staffed by our New York team and built around your brand, from AI portraits and sketch robots to corporate headshots for your entire office.
