Photo experiences for Chicago product launches, company celebrations, conferences, weddings and private events. Choose photo booths, AI portraits, 360 video, professional headshots or a custom activation built around your guests and creative direction. One, Two, Smile! Photobooth has local teams in Chicago, with support from our California-based team and travel arrangements when the event calls for them.
Plan a Chicago photo experience around your conference, reception, wedding or private event. From McCormick Place to Navy Pier or the Cultural Center, the booked room and supplier access details help us shape the setup.
Tell us whether your Chicago event needs professional portraits, a shareable brand moment or a guest keepsake. A McCormick Place exhibit needs organizer-approved access and a booth plan; a Navy Pier reception needs a layout that accounts for dinner, entertainment and photos. We shape the experience around your program and creative direction.
Choose the experience around guest portraits, branded content or an agreed lead-capture goal.
Staffing and operating hours are set out in your event proposal.
Approve wraps, backdrops and photo artwork before production.
Optional marketing data capture uses the consent process agreed for your event.
For your Chicago event, choose the experience around your guest count, event format and the photos or videos you want guests to take home.

| Local setting | Photo experience planning |
|---|---|
| McCormick Place | Confirm contractor access rather than assuming exhibitor self-unloading applies. |
| Aon Grand Ballroom | Mark the photo area separately from stage, dining and balcony circulation. |
| Chicago Cultural Center | Send the booked room and approved supplier instructions. |
Photo mosaic walls, AI sketch robots and AI fashion sketches are also available for a custom event brief.
Creative assets are scoped to your event and approved before production.
On-site attendants operate the selected experience for the contracted hours.
Digital sharing and print options depend on the experience and venue connection.
Optional lead capture uses the fields and permissions agreed in advance.
Gallery delivery and permitted image use are confirmed in the proposal.
Available activity reporting is defined for the selected activation.
Your Chicago proposal covers the experience, hours, staffing, branding, printing and any travel needed. At McCormick Place, unloading arrangements and material-handling charges depend on the show and eligibility. Confirm the supplier route before treating self-unloading as part of the budget.
McCormick Place limits its ASUV unloading program to eligible registered exhibitors. Confirm the booth supplier’s approved access route with show management before finalizing delivery arrangements.
Aon Grand Ballroom has large windows overlooking Lake Michigan. Share the event time and portrait position so lighting and background choices account for the window-facing setting.
Navy Pier provides covered guest drop-off areas at the Event Center. Confirm equipment delivery separately so the booth plan does not rely on guest arrival access.
The Cultural Center offers distinct spaces including G.A.R. Hall and Rotunda. Identify the booked room and approved photo area before selecting the booth footprint.
Aon Grand Ballroom has a raised stage and permanent production equipment. Include the stage and audience layout when placing the booth so the photo queue does not cross the program.
Aon Grand Ballroom connects to outdoor space. If the photo experience is intended outside, confirm that area is included and agree on a sheltered alternative with the venue.
Eligible ASUV drivers check in at the marshaling yard before dock entry. Share the organizer’s actual handling instructions so the booth crew follows the correct process for its role.
McCormick Place’s ASUV rules include staffing and unloading-time restrictions. Confirm eligibility and handling responsibilities before assuming the photo equipment can use that program.
Aon Grand Ballroom includes balcony seating as well as the main floor. Identify where guests will spend their time before choosing a fixed booth position or discussing roaming coverage.
One, Two, Smile! Photobooth has local teams in Chicago, with support from our California-based team and travel arrangements when needed. Send your venue address, booked space and access window so we can confirm staffing and the production scope. The map represents our service area. Named venues are planning examples, not a claim of a partnership or past work at those venues.
For a Navy Pier launch, match the branded photo artwork to the campaign and place the activation around the approved reception plan.
For a McCormick Place conference, plan headshots or a branded booth within the assigned exhibit footprint and show schedule.
For an Aon Grand Ballroom company party, keep the photo area clear of stage views and the main dinner circulation.
For a Cultural Center team event, choose individual portraits or group keepsakes around the booked room and program.
For a Navy Pier gala, agree on when portraits will operate around arrivals, awards and dinner.
For a Chicago lakefront celebration, confirm whether photos belong indoors or in a booked outdoor area before finalizing the equipment plan.
We quote each Chicago booking for its actual scope, including the experience, hours, staffing, printing and branding. Send your date, venue address and guest count for a written proposal.
Yes, One, Two, Smile! Photobooth has local teams in Chicago, with support from our California-based team and travel arrangements when needed. Share your venue address and date so we can confirm the team and production scope.
Send the show name, booth number, floor plan and supplier manual. Confirm how your photo-booth supplier is expected to deliver and handle equipment; ASUV is an eligibility-based exhibitor program.
No. McCormick Place applies exhibitor, vehicle and handling restrictions to ASUV. Ask show management which arrangements apply to the supplier and include any required material handling in the plan.
Share the stage, dinner and balcony layout before choosing a position. The room’s windows and separate circulation areas make the actual event plan more useful than its maximum guest capacity.
Aon Grand Ballroom has access to outdoor space. Confirm that your contract and venue approvals cover the proposed photo position, then review power, shelter and the indoor alternative.
Send the specific room, seating plan, venue contact and permitted supplier access. We can then discuss a photo experience that fits the booked space rather than assuming the whole Cultural Center is available.
For a Navy Pier event using more than one guest area, roaming coverage is an option to discuss. A fixed booth suits a planned portrait destination; share where guests will gather so the proposal reflects the event flow.
Tell us your Chicago date, venue, guest count and what the event needs to accomplish. Our local teams will help scope the experience, creative direction and production arrangements.
