We Recreated the Oscars Photo Booth—Right Here in NYC

There’s something about the Academy Awards that feels instantly iconic. The fashion, the lighting, the perfectly composed portraits—it’s all intentional, elevated, and unforgettable.

So we asked ourselves: what would it look like to bring that same energy into an event setting?

Then we did it.

The Concept

We recreated an Oscars-inspired photo experience inside our NYC studio using our own photo booth technology, blending editorial-style lighting with the ease and flow of a live event setup.

Think: clean backdrops, sharp contrast, flattering light, and that effortless “celebrity portrait” feel.

It wasn’t about copying, it was about translating that level of polish into something our clients can actually experience at their own events.

The Setup

We focused on a few key elements:

  • Minimal, elevated backdrop – no distractions, just a clean, timeless look

  • High-end lighting setup – designed to sculpt and flatter every face

  • Instant capture + delivery – because it still needs to function seamlessly at real events

  • Subtle glam finish – polished, but still natural

Why This Matters for Events

A lot of photo booths focus on props, prints, or novelty.

We focus on how it feels to step in front of the camera.

This style of setup works especially well for:

  • Corporate galas

  • Brand activations

  • Weddings with a modern aesthetic

  • Fashion and media events

It creates images people actually want to keep—and post.

In a city like New York City, the standard is already high.
