OTTAWA BRAND ACTIVATION STUDIO
Premium Photo Booth Activations for Brands & Experiential Events in Ottawa-Gatineau
Vibe Activations builds branded photo, video, and AI experiences that get reposted long after the event lights come up. For brand teams in Ottawa-Gatineau and the agencies behind them across North America.
Trusted by brand teams and agency producers
Most activations photograph well and disappear by Monday.
Foot traffic is easy. Buzz is easy. The hard part is building something the audience wants to send to a friend — and the brand team can actually report on. That's the only job Vibe does, so we got obsessive about both halves.
WHAT WE BUILD
Three jobs. One activation.
Stop the room.
A visible, kinetic build that pulls foot traffic from across the venue. People don't walk past a booth they want to be inside.
Earn the share.
Every guest leaves with a branded asset designed for the feed. The content travels through their network, not just yours.
Prove the spend.
Email capture, survey logic, content reach, and lead quality — packaged into a post-campaign deck your client can take into Monday's meeting.

WHY VIBE
Four reasons agencies keep our number.
We design for the repost, not the room.
Every build starts from the asset the guest leaves with — then we engineer the hardware, software, and graphics to produce that asset on repeat.
We move at agency speed.
Briefs in on Monday. Concepts back by Thursday. Hardware on-site the following month if the calendar demands it.
One contact. Every city.
No regional handoffs, no third-party subcontractors. One project manager owns the brief end to end.
You leave with a report, not a folder.
Within 72 hours of wrap, you get a content package and a data deck mapped to the KPIs you came in with.
PROCESS
Four steps from brief to deck.
Brief
Tell us the campaign, the audience, the KPI. We listen, ask the right questions, and confirm scope.
Build
We design the concept, the hardware, the graphics, and the data layer as one integrated system.
Run
Our crew handles setup, on-site execution, guest flow, and tear-down. You handle the rest of your day.
Report
Within 72 hours, you get the content package and the post-campaign deck — ready for your client meeting.

FAQ
Questions we hear before the first call.
What is a brand activation photo booth?
A brand activation photo booth is purpose-built for a marketing campaign — meaning the hardware, software, graphics, and data capture are all designed to drive a specific brand outcome.
Do you work directly with experiential marketing agencies?
Yes. A large share of our work runs through experiential agencies and creative shops. We are set up for white-label execution, NDA-ready, and structured so one Vibe PM coordinates the full build with your producer.
Which cities does Vibe Activations service?
Ottawa-Gatineau is home base. We regularly activate across Toronto, Montréal, and the rest of Ontario and Québec, and we travel anywhere in North America on request.
How far in advance do we need to book?
Two to six weeks is typical for a fully custom build. Earlier engagement gives us more room for creative design, hardware customization, and brand approvals.
What does pricing look like for a brand activation?
Investment begins at $1,000 for a short activation and scale into the six-figure range for multi-city tours. Most agency engagements land between $4,000 and $25,000.
