Give Your Attendees the 'Holy [BLEEP]' Experience
Photos find the right person automatically
Nobody wants to scroll four thousand event photos hunting for the three they're in, or dig through a booth gallery of two hundred faces to find their own headshot. Their phone pings, and their photos are already there, sorted as the event happens.
Their photos, plus the ones worth sharing
Each gallery holds the photos they're in and a highlight set from the event, speakers, sponsors, the moments that made the night. They can post about the event, not just themselves, while it's still happening. No recap email three weeks later hoping anyone still cares.
Sponsors show up where people actually look
A sponsor's logo sits on every photo that goes out, plus the header and footer of every gallery, with links wherever they want them. They can reach attendees directly during the event and after it ends. Thousands of impressions, on images people are choosing to share.
Organizers get more than a folder
During the event, organizers have the full gallery live, ready to pull from for social while the room is still full. Afterward, a full edited gallery at print resolution, a highlights set you can share publicly with attendees, sponsors, and your email list, the branded photos for internal use, and a list of every attendee who registered with direct access to their own album.

Startup Boston Week 2025 ran five days, 7,000 registered attendees, 250 speakers, 300 volunteers, across 100 sessions. Three Circles Studio provided a team of 4 headshot photographers and 8 event photographers, twelve people, organized entirely by founder Kevin Thai, covering both the headshot booth and general event coverage. That included 302 people and 3,449 headshots at the booth alone.
For a full week, sponsor logos were lighting up LinkedIn and Instagram, carried by attendees sharing their own photos, not a paid post. According to the organization, more registrations were pulled in as the week went on, as people saw their network already there, having a good time, and decided to show up too. Below are a few of the posts panelists and speakers shared themselves.
For years, Kevin has been the go-to photographer for Startup Boston Week, a five-day conference that brings together 7,000 attendees, 250 speakers, and 300 volunteers across 100 sessions. I cannot recommend Kevin enough!

By the time the Ace Next Gen Unity Conference wrapped, over a hundred speakers and honorees shared their photos with the people who mattered to them before the conference even ended. Organizers had real social posts and stories going up while the FOMO was still working in their favor. The email list got notified the next day, while the event was still fresh enough to matter.
All 121 attendees had a highlight gallery from the first two days in their hands by the next morning. The organization had a full spreadsheet of every speaker, panelist, VIP, sponsor, and guest, too.
Most photographers make you wait two weeks for a gallery link. Not here.
Watch the event recap, guests and organizers talking about receiving their photos in real time.
Every event is different. Your coverage should be too.
Corporate conferences, galas, fundraisers, festivals. Each one gets its own plan and shot list, built around what your day actually needs.
Before we shoot, we ask what the photos are actually for. An event built around recruiting next year's volunteers gets a gallery that's mostly volunteers, working together, welcoming guests. A night built around an expensive keynote gets time on stage and in the audience reacting to them. A gala with a sponsor covering the lunch gets that sponsor visible in the photos people actually want to share. Same event industry, different job every time.
Tell me what you're planning, and we'll build the rest together.
BOOK A CALLQuestions About How This Works
Guests register once, by scanning a QR code, texting a number, or giving a photographer their phone or email on the spot. That single registration links to every photo taken of them for the rest of the event, whether that's a few hours or the full run of a multi-day conference. Yes, matching involves facial recognition, and it's consent-based. Nobody's face gets matched or stored until they've actively registered to receive their own photos, and only that person sees their gallery. Photos aren't scraped, sold, or used to train anything.
Registration is what makes the private delivery possible, but nothing about the event changes for them otherwise. Anyone who skips it can still be included in a shared highlight gallery if the organizer wants one.
Strong, consistent Wi-Fi at the venue is what makes real-time delivery possible. If a venue's connection isn't reliable, guests can still register by scanning the QR code, and their photos get uploaded and sent out manually after the event instead of in real time.
No. Registration information is used only to deliver that person's own photos. Three Circles Studio sends reminder messages during and after the event so guests don't miss viewing or downloading their gallery, but data isn't sold and isn't used to market anything beyond your own event.
Attendee galleries stay private and accessible to that attendee, and the organization retains the coverage and any attendee records collected. Nothing gets made public or shared beyond the event unless you choose to build a curated public highlight gallery separately.
Yes. Logos and sponsor branding can be added to the photo overlays and to the gallery guests see, so every photo shared on social media carries your event's branding along with it. Three Circles Studio can build and apply the overlay for you, or provide the templates so your own team can handle it in-house if you'd rather keep design control internally.
Yes, for family-oriented events, multiple people can be registered under a single phone number so a parent gets their whole family's photos delivered together instead of everyone registering separately. This is especially useful for community events, where families often move through together rather than one at a time.
As an MBE, this isn't an abstract concern to me. It's something I take seriously and watch for at every event I photograph, across Boston's diverse communities, immigrant groups, nonprofits, and Startup Boston Week's own diverse roster. It hasn't shown up as a real problem in my own coverage. If you have concerns about accuracy for your specific event, schedule a quick chat and we'll talk through it before you book.
