Mammoth

Everyone is dressed up. Give them a portrait.

A Portrait Studio at cocktails, a photographer on the program, and every photo on guests’ phones before the valet line clears.

Fash Bash at the DIA, 2023

Once a year your guests are in the good suit and the good dress, and most of them will leave with a phone photo taken at arm’s length in bad light.

For a bigger room, the Portrait Booth with a host runs alongside the studio so nobody waits. Everything is delivered digitally first, and the booth’s top package sends guests home with a 4×6.

Common questions

What do you recommend for a gala?

The Portrait Studio plus a roaming photographer. The studio gives every guest a portrait; the photographer covers the program, the tables and the moments the committee needs for the recap.

When should the studio run?

Cocktail hour, before the program starts and while everyone still looks the way they planned to. We map it against your run of show and can reopen it after the program for the people who missed it.

Can the photos carry our sponsors?

Yes. A step-and-repeat or custom scene with the sponsor lockup, and the overlay to match, so every photo that gets posted carries the cause with it.

What does it cost?

  • The Portrait Studio starts at $4,800 for a half day.
  • Roaming Photos are $1,800 for three hours.
  • The Portrait Booth comes three ways, each for 3 hours: $1,200 self-serve, $1,700 with a host, $2,200 with a host and unlimited 4×6 prints.
  • A backdrop is on top: velvet and the hedge wall are $300 and a flower wall or Pink Pampas Dream is $550; a custom scene is quoted.

How fast does the committee get photos?

Same-night selects, delivered while the room is still full, and the full gallery is there the same day.

How does travel billing work?

Travel is quoted up front, on every quote. Metro Detroit and Ann Arbor have no travel fee. Further out, we show you the drive, the fuel and any hotel night before you sign.

Do you carry liability insurance?

Yes. Mammoth carries $2M per occurrence and $4M aggregate in commercial general liability, plus equipment coverage. We send a certificate of insurance with your venue’s certificate holder and additional insured wording the same day you ask.
