San Francisco is one of our most active markets. We have been running events in the city for over 15 years, from corporate holiday parties in the Financial District to product launches in SOMA, weddings at waterfront venues along the Embarcadero to galas at City Hall. We know San Francisco inside and out, including the loading docks, the venue access hours, and the parking situations that catch out-of-town vendors. We are California-based, so SF is a straight shot for our crew, and there are no travel fees for any event in the city.
We have produced flipbook photo booths, green screen video, and 360 activations for Google, LinkedIn, Adobe, Microsoft, and dozens of other companies throughout San Francisco. Whether your event is 50 guests at a private dinner in Nob Hill or 2,000 guests at Moscone Center, we bring the same equipment and the same standard of execution.

Action Flipbooks
Flipbooks are our signature experience and the one guests talk about longest after the event. A guest steps in front of the green screen, acts out a 7-second scene with props and custom backgrounds of their choosing, and walks away with a printed 60-page flipbook in about 90 seconds. Every cover is custom-designed to match your event branding or theme. A single cutting station produces up to 70 books per hour, and a parallel station pushes that to 120 per hour, so even a packed Financial District holiday party keeps the line moving. SF tech companies love the physical keepsake at digital-everything events because it is the one thing that actually leaves the room with guests. Learn more about Action Flipbooks.
Green Screen Video Activations
Guests star in their own branded mini-movie: a custom background, sound design, and visual effects all built for your event. Think product launch trailers, branded world experiences, or commercial parodies featuring your team. The finished clip is delivered to their phone in seconds. This is the most-requested experience at SOMA product launches and brand activations because the organic social reach the same night is real. We have produced green screen video for Google, Adobe, LinkedIn, and Microsoft events throughout San Francisco. Learn more about Green Screen Video.
Green Screen Photos
Put guests at the Golden Gate Bridge, inside a branded set, in front of a custom mural, or anywhere you can design. Green screen photos give you total control over backgrounds and overlays, with instant prints or digital delivery to phones. Great for corporate events where consistent branded imagery matters, and for large galas where guests want a polished keepsake rather than a candid snap. We can build custom scenes or work from your brand guidelines. Learn more about Green Screen Photos.
AI-Powered 360 Photo Booths
Guests step onto the platform while the rotating arm sweeps a camera around them, and AI turns the footage into a cinematic 4D immersive video clip with your branding layered in. Up to four guests ride at a time and a new group cycles about every minute, so a single booth moves well over a hundred guests an hour, and setup needs roughly a 14 by 14 foot footprint with overhead clearance for the rotating arm. Add confetti cannons, bubble machines, or smoke for extra impact. The clip lands on each guest's phone within seconds. This is one of the highest-engagement setups at corporate galas and tech company all-hands events in San Francisco. We built a dedicated 360 photo booth San Francisco page if that is the experience you are after, or see the national 360 booth overview.
SpotMyPhotos Roaming Photography
Our photographers move through your event capturing candid moments, group shots, and the energy of the room. SpotMyPhotos technology delivers every photo to the right guest's phone in a branded gallery automatically — no tagging, no searching, no kiosk queue. This is the right call for large events at Moscone Center, multi-room galas at the Fairmont or Palace Hotel, and outdoor events along the Embarcadero where a single stationary booth would miss most of what is happening. Learn more about SpotMyPhotos.
AI Photo Booths
Real-time AI transforms guest photos into something they did not expect: oil paintings, comic book heroes, movie posters, or a fully custom branded style built for your event. Results are instant, shareable, and unlike anything a traditional photo booth produces. A strong fit for SF creative industry events and tech company brand activations where guests have already seen everything. Learn more about AI Photo Booths.

Yes. San Francisco and the Bay Area are two of our most active markets. We are California-based, SF is a short drive for our crew, and there are no travel fees for events anywhere in the city or the surrounding Bay Area.
A guest steps in front of our green screen, chooses a background, acts out a 7-second scene with props, and walks away with a printed 60-page animated flipbook in about 90 seconds. Every cover is custom-designed for your event. A single cutting station produces up to 70 books per hour, and a parallel station can reach 120 per hour for larger events.
Beyond flipbooks we offer green screen video activations (branded mini-movies delivered to phones in seconds), green screen photo booths, AI-powered 360 video booths, SpotMyPhotos roaming photography with automatic photo delivery, and AI photo booths. Most large SF corporate events combine two or three of these to cover more of the room and give guests more options.
No. Travel is included for all San Francisco and Bay Area events. Every quote is all-in with no separate travel line items or surprise charges after the event.
We have worked at Moscone Center, San Francisco City Hall, the Fairmont, Palace Hotel, St. Regis, Westin St. Francis, the Ferry Building, Fort Mason, the Exploratorium, the California Academy of Sciences, SOMA tech offices and event spaces, and dozens of private venues across the Marina, Pacific Heights, Nob Hill, and the Mission. We know the loading docks, the union considerations, and the access windows at most major SF venues.
Popular dates, especially during the fall conference season (September through November) and December holiday party season, book 2 to 3 months out. Reaching out early gives you more flexibility on creative customization and setup details. That said, we can often accommodate shorter timelines, so it is worth asking even if your event is soon.
Our single-cutter flipbook setup produces up to 70 books per hour. A parallel cutting station pushes that to 120 per hour. For events above 400 or 500 guests, we typically recommend combining two activations so no one waits more than a few minutes. We will recommend the right setup for your headcount and run time.
For corporate product launches and brand activations, green screen video and 360 booths tend to perform best because guests leave with a shareable branded clip that extends the event reach online. Flipbooks are the strongest throughput play and the most reliable crowd-pleaser for holiday parties and team events. We will recommend the right mix based on your goals, venue, and guest count.
