The Ultimate Tip List
- Find the Best Light
Most of our rooms include built-in studio lighting—but side light can be your secret weapon. Angle the light across your face for flattering shadows. - Play with Layers and Props
Use provided props—like frames, signs, and quirky hats—to add context, humor, or seasonality to your selfies. - Use the ‘Rule of Thirds’
Position your face off-center and align your eyes along the top horizontal line—that natural composition makes your shots pop. - Experiment with Angles
High angles make eyes look bigger; low angles can feel dramatic. The freedom of our open sets lets you test both. - Rotate with the
SpinPix 360 Booth
Our SpinPix 360 booth gives dynamic movement shots—great for eye-catching social content. Let the booth and lighting do the work. - Sneak in a Friend or Two
Selfies with friends add energy. Grab a group pic near our colorful backdrops—or do coordinated jumps or dance moves. - Time to Strike a Pose
Try relaxed, candid poses—like looking away, whispering to a friend, or mid-laugh—for a natural, Instagram-ready look. - Change Your Expression
Switch it up between smiles, serious looks, goofy faces, or even dramatic pouts. Your gallery will tell more of your story. - Blend Backdrops for Variety
Pop from neon rooms to cozy fall-themed setups in one session. You’ll boost your content variety for Feed, Stories, and TikTok. - Capture in Burst or Timer Mode
Use burst mode when jumping or moving, or a 3–5 second timer to position yourself precisely. Great hits often come from unexpected frames!
