What is Iris Booth?

A headshot photo booth, and a platform.

Photography has evolved. So should your headshot process.

Iris Booth is a self-serve headshot booth paired with a secure software platform—an always-on program that replaces scheduled photo days for students, employees, clinicians, and members.

Subjects walk up, take their photos, and get a finished headshot in about three minutes: studio quality, auto-edited, emailed in seconds. No photographer, no scheduling.

But Iris also handles the enterprise workflows you depend on—governance, approvals, and API delivery into the systems you already run, from HR and badging to directories and credentialing. That's what makes it the most flexible, powerful headshot platform on the market.

Iris is easy to deploy, and powerful when you need it.

Why Iris

The headshot market is fragmented. Iris is the standard.

Other approaches break down at institutional scale. Here is what each one misses — and what Iris does instead.

The approach
The problem
What Iris does
Photo days
Expensive, infrequent, require coordination. Miss the day and you're out of luck.
Always-on, self-serve. New hires and students capture on day one — every day.
Ad hoc photographers
Inconsistent. Quality and output vary by photographer, city, and budget.
Same guided experience and quality standard at every location, every time.
Smartphone photos
Inconsistent quality. Cannot meet institutional compliance or credentialing standards.
Studio-quality lighting, framing, and output that meet badging and ID specs.
AI-generated headshots
Not authentic likenesses. Cannot be verified or governed. A serious liability for institutions.
Real photos of real people, captured through a governed, auditable system.

Say goodbye to painful photo days. Make photography effortless with Iris Booth today.

Iris Booth is a self-serve photo booth and software platform that captures studio-quality professional headshots in about three minutes. The booth runs 24/7 without a photographer. The platform automates editing, governance, and delivery into HR, badging, and directory systems.

A typical session takes about three minutes. A user walks up, authenticates if required, captures multiple photos, chooses a favorite, applies guided edits, and downloads the final image.

No. Iris is self-serve. The booth handles lighting, framing, and capture automatically. The platform applies edits and delivers final images without manual intervention by your team.

Iris is deployed by universities and colleges, enterprises, hospitals and health systems, and event organizers. Common use cases include career services, employee onboarding, ID badging, staff directories, alumni programs, and conference activations.

When selecting a headshot platform, there are two factors that every institution should consider deeply. First, AI-generated headshots are not authentic likenesses. They cannot be verified, governed, or relied on for identity, credentialing, or compliance contexts. Iris captures real photos of real people through a governed, auditable system — the opposite of generative imagery. Second, some AI-generated headshot platforms may be using your data to train models or for other unintended purposes. When it comes to employee data, a platform that prioritizes data safety, transparency, and sovereignty should be selected.

Iris Booth is the flagship hardware for high-volume permanent locations. Iris Air is a semi-permanent surface for locations that need quality at volume without a full booth footprint. Iris Flex is a portable surface for events and temporary installations. Iris Digital is browser-based capture for fully remote use. All four feed into the same platform with the same editing, governance, and delivery.

The Professional Plan unlocks SAML/SSO, API access, approval workflows, and post-processing pipelines. Outputs can be formatted automatically for ID badges, directories, and credentialing systems, then exported directly into downstream platforms via API.

Iris uses a hardware + software model. Hardware ranges from $12,000 for Iris Flex to $39,000 for the Iris Booth. Software is an annual subscription with two tiers: the No-Hassle Plan at $500/month and the Professional Plan at $950/month — which adds API access, SAML/SSO, approval workflows, and up to 5 Iris Studios. Remote headshots are available from $5 per headshot. Special pricing is available for Higher Ed institutions. See full pricing →

Iris is deployed in more than 300 organizations across the world, including universities, hospitals, professional services firms, and event venues. The platform has captured more than 5 million headshots.
