Why Speakeasy Over Standard iPad Kiosks

  • 10×10 Light Shield: Fully enclosed black studio shields guests from ugly DJ lasers, ambient window glare, and venue shadows.

  • Pro Photographer Directed: No automated iPad screens or flash umbrellas. A live photographer directs three curated poses per group, delivering high-fashion portraits rather than throwaway test shots.

  • Zero Queue Bottlenecks: If the floor surges, we automatically switch to hourly batch printing. Guests get poses directed, digital copies texted instantly, and physical prints queued up for pickup without standing in a stalled line.

Access & Door Control

You decide how your guests get into the studio. We customize the entry method to match your crowd.

  • The Velvet Rope (Open VIP Access): A dedicated door host keeps the line moving with open entry. Best for large weddings and corporate parties.

  • The Full Speakeasy (Password Required): Strict door control. Guests state a custom password found at your event on cocktail napkins or tokens to enter. A proven icebreaker for private parties.

Lactose Intolerant | The Baseline Experience

Cheese-Free & Prop-less: No cheap feather boas, plastic glasses, or party clutter. The standard experience delivers clean, publication-grade studio portraits of your guests looking their absolute best.

Choose your look:

  • Grandpa Vision (B&W Edit): High contrast, timeless, and dramatic black and white editorial portraits.

  • Giggle Water (Color Edit): Punchy color and blooming highlights inspired by prohibition-era lounges.

Late-Night Chaos & Seasonal Prop Packages | $150

Once the formal toasts wrap and the party shifts gears, dump a themed bag into the studio, and let nature take its course.

  • The Camp Flannel: Deep Maine Grit. Heavy vintage flannels, dull camp hatchets, oversized trapper hats, and battered thermos jugs. Built for the rugged and the unapologetic.

  • THE FLORIDA MAN: Pure South Beach Chaos. Mullet visors, neon wrap-around shades, swamp puppies, and unhinged energy. Built for the energy.

  • The Spooktastic Voyage: Vintage horror & noir. Complete with a psycho’s toolkit, and plastic wrap. Built for the jump-scare.

  • The Naughty List: Retro Holiday & Ugly Sweaters. Vintage velvet Santa hats, gaudy tinsel, and bad-Santa props. Built for corporate holiday parties ready to strip away the formal office guards.

  • Dreamin’ of Daisy: Pure Gatsby indulgence, and NYE Prohibition Glamour. Pearl strands, vintage champagne coupes, beaded headbands, and gold confetti excess.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Speakeasy Studio is a premium, enclosed black-tent photo booth rental serving weddings and festivals in Maine. It features a manned professional photographer, cinematic studio lighting, and instant lab-quality physical prints.

  • Both. Guests receive a physical, dry 4x6 print in minutes. Guests can also sign our Ledger to have a high-resolution digital copy texted directly to their phone for social media sharing.

  • Yes. The Speakeasy Studio is a fully mobile portrait activation based in Greater Portland, Maine. We travel for weddings, corporate events, brand launches, and regional festivals.

  • We require a 10x10 foot footprint to set up the fully enclosed black canopy tent, plus access to a standard electrical outlet for our studio lighting and dye-sub printer.

  • In order to minimize bottlenecks. Our host manages entry, but if the crowd surges, we automatically shift from instant printing to hourly batch printing. Guests get their poses directed, receive their high-res digital copies via text, and can head back to the party while their physical prints are queued up for pick-up. No waiting in a stalled line.

  • To keep the queue moving and the energy high, each group gets a curated 3-take session. A pro photographer directs every pose, ensuring three distinct, high-fashion portraits rather than throwaway test shots. You review them on the spot, get all three sent straight to your phone, and walk out with your physical print (or grab it at the batch print station if the floor is packed).

  • Absolutely. While the Speakeasy experience is built first and foremost for guest entertainment and personal prints, full New England commercial licensing for event recap decks, PR, and brand marketing can easily be added to any package.
