A Photo Booth for Your Soul

The elegant simplicity of haiku allows us to create meaningful moments that serve as a portals to greater creativity, presence, and connection.

We find that the concise seventeen-syllable structure is approachable and exciting for guests of all kinds, and capable of encapsulating profound meaning within a single, vibrant snapshot.

From an engaging interaction to the meaningful keepsake that results, we create treasured experiences that capture the spirit of events and the hearts of participants.

Everyone loves receiving a haiku.
