EXPO & TRADE SHOW HEADSHOTS
The ultimate exhibition stand engagement strategy and the highest ROI trade show giveaway. Magnetise your stand, create conversations, increase dwell time, generate leads and boost engagement. We are Europe’s leading provider of headshot booths at live events.
Magnetise your stand.
Arguably the ultimate trade show giveaway- a free professional headshot draws traffic and generates more leads than any other stand engagement tactic- by a long way. It’s time to retire the wheel of fortune!
Start Conversations
A professional headshot booth at your next expo, corporate event or activation will start conversations before, during and after your event. Generate hype by asking delegates to sign up, chat while they queue, touch base when their images are delivered and engage when they post their new headshot!
Generate Leads
Over the course of your event, hundreds of people will queue for their free headshot. This gives you the opportunity to engage with them there and then. Our registration software also captures data that might not be part of a standard badge scan- meaning you get the information you care about.
ADD Value
Not only is a professional headshot of real-world use to your guests, it’s also high value giveaway. An individual mini-session with our photographer usually costs a minimum of £150, so each of your guests is essentially getting a £150 headshot for free. This might explain the queues!
Headshot Booth Testimonials
Headshot Booth Testimonials
We hired Headshot Company for a professional networking event, and they were the epitome of professionalism. James & Donna ensured every detail was sorted beforehand, and on the day, they arrived promptly and worked diligently for hours. The headshots turned out beautifully, and even the morning after the event, I’m already seeing new LinkedIn photos! Excellent service – we’ll definitely book them again for future events.
Kaltura hired James and Donna as a headshot photography-based stand activation at the recent Event Tech LIVE 2024 event. Aside from the quality of the product I also great appreciated the warm and welcoming approach they offered every single stand visitor. I felt very safe to leave what is a fantastic leads generation opportunity in their capable hands and cannot fault what is an extremely professional duo!
James and Donna from Headshot Company were extremely helpful and welcoming to visitors at our booth. They efficiently supported some last-minute changes and made sure that all attendees received an excellent headshot. Without them, I’m sure we would not have had as much traffic on our booth. I highly recommend working with Headshot Company if you have the chance.
James and Donna from Headshot Company are the perfect addition to any trade show presence. In an endless sea of gimmicks, their professional headshots cut through the noise effortlessly and attracted many visitors to our stand. They are highly professional, super friendly and deliver outstanting results. Needless to say we’ve already booked them again for next years’ event.
James and Donna were outstanding at a recent event where we provided photography services. They seamlessly integrated with our team, demonstrating complete professionalism and delivering exceptional work. Our client was highly impressed and provided extremely positive feedback post-event. Given the success of this collaboration, we look forward to working with them again in the future.
It was so great partnering with Headshot Company and our lead photographer James! We hired them to deliver a headshot booth at a brand activation event in London. The communication was clear, the process was seamless, and James was such a pro on-site! If you are looking for a professional team to deliver a headshot booth, I would highly recommend them.
Headshot Company were absolutely fantastic taking photographs at our company conference. Really professional and exemplary service with a very quick turnaround of high quality photos. Highly recommended- will definitely be re-booking.
We hired James to provide a headshot booth at an event for young people in sports media. From initial brief to execution, the delivery was seamless. James is very calm, relaxed and very accommodating and I would have no hesitation recommending him and his team! I look forward to working with Headshot Company again!

Expo Headshots FAQ
Expo Headshots FAQ
How easy is this to organise?
Very easy! All we need is a space to set up, two power sockets and wifi access and we take care of the rest! We have a variety of different set ups, and can work with almost any stand size.
If your space allows for it, we recommend also looking at queue barriers, as it helps keep the crowd organised during the show and makes it easier for you to have conversations with queuing delegates.
How much stand space is required?
Our minimum footprint is around 3x2m. We are happy to consult with you prior to your event in regards to the best positioning. For trade shows and expos, it’s usually best if our ‘backdrop’ is built into part of your stand, but we have various types of backdrop if this is not possible and for smaller events.
If you’re unsure how to fit us into your event space, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help.
What's the process?
The day prior to your expo, our team will set up your expo headshot booth and test everything. We have worked at most venues in the UK and Northern Europe so are well aware of the unique challenges and requirements of each venue.
Once the event is live, as people come for their complimentary headshot, they are asked to scan a QR code and fill in their details so that they can receive their headshots via email. Registration is quick and simple. The data captured over the course of your event is of course shared with you afterwards in the form of a spreadsheet. A Headshot Company assistant is included as standard and they will help drive traffic to the headshot booth, assist guests with registration and manage the queue. Our master photographer will direct each guest through their mini headshot session and they will instantly receive all of their images via email in a private gallery. As standard, each guest is able to select one image for professional retouching. We usually recommend a cut off of 24 hours post event, advising all guests to make their retouch selection before then. Retouched images are delivered 48 hours post-event. We are capable of photographing 500 guests per day.
What's included?
As standard, we include an award-winning, master headshot photographer who will direct your guests through their headshot experience and a Headshot Company assistant to help with registration and queue management. Also included is seamless setup and breakdown a day prior to the event, data capture, instant image delivery and each guest can choose one image for professional retouching. We supply you with the captured data at the end of the event (or at the end of each day if you prefer) and distribute the retouched images to each guest individually after the event. You also have the option to add on a range of customisation options. Please note that we require two power sockets close to where we are shooting and WiFi access.
How many people can be photographed per day?
Speed is key at trade shows so that you can capture as much data and engage with as many people as possible. We are capable of shooting 500 people per day comfortably. That’s a lot of leads and a lot of conversations!
How much do trade show headshot booths cost?
Our Expo Headshot Booth pricing is as follows:
- 1 day – from £4950
- 2 days – from £8450
- 3 days – from £11,850
The above costs exclude travel and expenses. For expos outside of the UK, travel and accommodation must be either arranged by the client or paid for in advance and there is a minimum booking of three days. More info on our expo headshot booth pricing and packages can be found here. Please contact us with your requirements for a quote.
Where do you provide this service?
We are based in the UK but deliver headshot booths at live events internationally. Please note that for events outside of the UK, there is a minumum three day booking policy.
Stand out
85 million people attend trade shows each year in the UK. Standing out from the crowd and driving traffic to your stand is more difficult than ever. Offering visitors to your stand a mini session and free headshot taken by one of the world’s leading headshot photographers is a sure fire way to attract attention. Not many people refuse an offer like that!
