The photo booth with a photographer in it.
A photo booth for your birthday party
Red Carpet was made for a daughter’s birthday party, where everyone seeing everyone’s photos was the point. Higgins directs every guest.
Guests scan a QR code and their photos open on their own phone. No app, no account.
How it works
- Set up a screen you own. Open Red Carpet in a browser on an iPad, laptop or phone you already have. Prop it up where guests will gather.
- Higgins directs each guest. He greets every guest out loud and tells them where to look and how to stand, so nobody has to guess. No two guests hear the same shoot.
- Guests scan a QR code. After each sitting a code appears on screen. Guests point their phone at it and their photos open in the browser. No app, no account.
Ideas for your birthday
- Tell Higgins who it is for. Give him the guest of honour and what they are wearing, or upload the invitation, and he can call them by name.
- Keep the gallery shared. The party feel is the default: everyone can see everyone’s photos. A host who wants more privacy can switch it so each guest sees only their own set.
- Put a chair by the booth. Little ones and grandparents both appreciate somewhere to sit while the line moves.
Questions
How much does a photo booth for birthday cost?
$19 per event while the launch price lasts, until Dec 31. After that it is $99 per event. You can try it free first: 15 guest sessions, with a small Red Carpet mark on every photo.
What device do I need?
A tablet, laptop or phone you already own. Red Carpet runs in a browser, so there is nothing to install and nothing to rent. It needs an internet connection while it runs.
Do my guests need an app or an account?
No. After each sitting a QR code appears on screen. Guests point their phone camera at it and their photos open in the browser. A guest who wants to keep them can choose to make an account, but nobody has to.
Can I remove a photo?
Yes. The host can hide any photo or delete it. Deleting removes the file and its record, not just the link to it.
How long are the photos kept?
A full event’s photos are kept 90 days after the event, and you can keep them a year (365 days) as an add-on. A free trial’s photos are kept 14 days.
