Customize your pictures with graphics, pre-made themes, filters, and more using the options in your "Photo Design" settings panel.

If you choose to allow it, participants can also make their own edits after capturing their photo(s).


Photo Design Panel Preview


Layout Options

Pick between layouts ranging from traditional photo strips to motion based layouts like GIFs.

Still Layouts

  • Single-frame or multi-frame photo layouts

  • Classic, static image formats

Motion Layouts

  • GIF: 2–6 frames, customizable playback speed. Countdown resets before each frame.

  • Live GIF: 6-frame, high-speed loop with countdown only before the first frame — feels more like a short video.

Choose Layout Feature

Enable this feature to let participants select their layout after tapping to start.

  • Current layout options: Single 1x1, GIF, Live GIF, and Rebound

  • Disabling this feature will default all participants to your selected layout

📍More layout options may be added in future updates.


Basic Customizations

  • Crop: square, circle, portrait, or landscape

  • Filters: choose from a wide range of photo effects

  • Margins & Corners: use sliders to adjust border width and corner roundness

  • Margin Colors: Set background color using a color picker or hex code

Graphic Customizations

Custom Logos

Add your own graphic elements to the layout for a polished, on-theme experience. Learn more & see sizing requirements in our Logo Design Guide.

Logos can be placed above, to the side of, or below your layout. Additional space is created when a logo is added, so they never cover part of the photo.


Themes

Choose from a library of free, in-app themes that apply:

  • A custom start screen

  • A matching overlay (a frame and other elements placed on your layout)

Themes are often based on holidays, parties, and common event types (e.g., weddings, Halloween) and can be used with your own custom graphics.

We have a collection of free photo booth themes that are available in your app directly below the Photo Design panel.


Edit Tools

After capturing their photo(s), participants will be taken to an editing screen. Edit tools are fully customizable — you can enable or disable these depending on your event’s needs.

Participants can take actions including but not limited to:

  • Retaking their picture (always enabled)

  • Adjusting crop and filter

  • Select alternate layouts

  • Adding props

📍Some editing tools may be automatically enabled or disabled based on your other settings. For example, the layout editor won't appear if participants are only capturing a single-frame photo.

Props

Use face detection to automatically size and position props (e.g., glasses, hats, mustaches) on participants’ eyes, mouths, and other facial features.

Hundreds of pre-made props are included in your app!
