Belongs at your party

The Portrait Booth is fast and fun. The Portrait Studio is the editorial version. At a milestone party it’s the family portrait everyone has been putting off.

Our crew dresses to your dress code. Fun, charismatic people who fit your vibe and look like they belong.

Common questions

How is this different from the Portrait Booth?

The booth is guest-driven: step up, smile, go. The studio is photographer-driven: you get posed, lit and directed, and the result is a portrait rather than a snapshot.

Can it carry our sponsors?

Yes. A step-and-repeat or custom scene with the sponsor lockup, and the overlay to match. A custom scene like that is quoted at our cost and our time.

Do guests get prints?

Every portrait is delivered to their phone in seconds. On-site printing is an hourly add-on for 4×6 or 8×12 prints.

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.
