We will continue our virtual photo booth service through the summer — and we will continue with our COVID-19 event policies and following CDC guidelines for masks, hygiene, and social distancing as needed.

Client Stories
Rock-star photographers, jaw-dropping artwork, and custom designed photo experiences combine to ignite social media. Live social sharing with custom branded messaging and exclusive after action reports quantify results from all our photo booths. Our booths aren’t the traditional funny sunglasses and mustache-on-a-stick experiences. Fun? Yes. Great photos? Yes. Real photographers? Yes. All combine to use the power of photography to promote your brand at events.
Our Head Shot Photo Booths steal the show at conventions, conferences and trade shows. Participants flock to have their photos created, and they love we take about 10 photos, touch them up, and email those head shots in high resolution. All in about 5 minutes. Our photographers engage participants during their mini-sessions, and know how to capture head shots that reflect the participant’s own style, brand and personality.
Our corporate headshot photography services are unique. It’s not just that we instantly touch up (think Photoshop) every headshot as we capture them, and then export all the photos to your team so they have instant access to the headshots we just captured. It’s not just that we engage participants and help them feel relaxed in front of our headshot camera. And it’s not just that our LGTBQ national corporate headshot photography team is always on location. It’s all those things. And more.
Experiential photo marketing coast to coast. Our creative and energized photographers will ignite your brand and engage your participants. Custom designed photo executions add authenticity and create amazing photos on the event floor. Our photographers, photo sets and green screen artwork will create imaging that trumpets your brand on social media.
Coast to Coast, LA to…New York City, baby! We know that’s not how the song goes, but we make up our own words. Our client’s brands have no borders, and neither do we. From San Fran to San Jose, from Sun City to Sin City, we go there. We have offices in Las Vegas, Tampa and Washington, but we’re just as likely to be shooting in Seattle, Salt Lake or New Orleans. With coast to coast flat rate pricing, we deliver amazing results nationwide.
Our flagship green screen photo booth for the Travel and Adventure Series. A 20′ x 20′ booth, about 2,000 participants per day go through our photo experience.
After half of the 2020 Travel and Adventure Show series was cancelled due to COVID-19, plans are underway for 2021. Those plans will include the infamous US Event Photos experiential green screen photo booth. How the booth will operate will depending on how things progress with the pandemic in the coming months. We will follow local and CDC guidelines to make sure the 2021 season is great. More on our COVID-19 green screen photo booths can be found HERE.
We started our huge Experiential Photo Marketing Green Screen Photo Booth six years ago, with the Travel Channel. Travel Channel hired us to integrate a 10′ x 10′ photo experience into their 20′ x 20′ overall booth, using green screen photography to showcase travel destinations — and Travel Channel programming — world wide. The next year, Travel Channel decided to eliminate their booth, and we thought the travel destinations green screen photo experience would fade away. We were wrong. The Travel and Adventure Series show management, who were impressed by our approach with participants, decided to hire us directly and we took over the entire 20′ x 20′ footprint. Now the green screen photo booth is sponsored by various world wide tourism destinations, and features a different world wide experience every week. In 2021, the show travels to Boston, Chicago, Washington, DC, Dallas, Bay Area (San Francisco), Los Angeles, San Diego, Tampa, Denver and Atlanta. Instead of all the Travel Shows falling in the first quarter of the year, the 2021 proposed schedule will scatter the events throughout the year. Once a schedule is finalized, you can find it here.
2020 will forever be known as the Year of the Pandemic. After Bassmasters, 2020, all of our in-person, live events were cancelled. In 2020, we saw months where staying six feet apart was the new staying together. Face masks became the go-to fashion accessory. Everyone caught up on their favorite television shows, binge watching endless hours. There were no in-person live events. Virtual photo booths replaced our traditional green screen photo experiences. Mike started a new, local podcast.
It was March, 2020 when photographer and US Event Owner Mike Gatty returned from the Bassmaster Classic. He’d just completed his assignment for Yamaha, an experiential photo marketing booth at the world’s largest bass fishing contest in Birmingham. It was the fifth time Mike had provided the green screen photo booth for Yamaha. Complete with a 12′ dock and two replicas of the world record largemouth bass, the photo set lets Mike reproduce the cover of Bassmaster Magazine. Participants, with a little Yamaha branding, are featured front and center with their “record catch”. When Mike’s flight landed, as he was collecting the luggage from the belt, he glanced up at the news. The world was shutting down. It would remain shut.
Now it’s 2021, and the Bassmaster Classic is scheduled for Fort Worth, TX this June. The world is reopening. Once again, Yamaha asked Mike to return to provide the experiential photo booth. This year, it will be one of the first live events on his schedule, and will mark the completion of The Year of the Pandemic.

For more than 7 years, US Event Photos has been the convention photographers for Carpet One. When the Covid-19 Pandemic hit in Spring of 2020, their Summer Convention was postponed, and postponed again. Carpet One hosts two conventions a year: Winter and Summer, in different cities nationwide. When the in-person convention still couldn’t happen last fall, it was cancelled. Then the Winter, 2021 convention was cancelled. It seemed we’d never return to normal.
But normalcy is around the corner. And through all the postponements and cancellations, we worked with Carpet One to be ready for their convention photography needs when they were able to safely return to in-person events. Now that vaccinations are happening nationwide, in-person corporate events are beginning to be scheduled.
We will resume our convention photography schedule with Carpet One this July. But they are not the first convention on our schedule. In the beginning of June, the Phacilitate Conference will occur in Miami. Advanced Therapy Week was one of the last conventions we photographed in 2021. With any luck, by June conventions will safely return.
