OUR APPROACH TO BRAND ACTIVATIONS
Captured Moments Collective is a Chicago-based photo booth company specializing in brand activation photo booth experiences and experiential photo booth marketing for events and campaigns. We design interactive, custom-branded photo booth activations that spark engagement, create memorable moments, and generate high-quality, shareable content. Each experience is thoughtfully crafted to align with your brand identity and marketing goals helping increase audience interaction, encourage social sharing, and extend the impact of your event beyond the venue.


WHAT IS A BRAND ACTIVATION?
A brand activation is an immersive, interactive experience that allows guests to engage with your brand in a meaningful way. Unlike traditional event marketing, a brand activation focuses on participation, connection, and shareable moments turning attendees into brand advocates.
