For adults, the full experience is about 1 hour 40 minutes including setup time.
1. Painting (40 min) — paint directly on a large backdrop.
2. Self-shooting (20 min) — take photos in front of your finished backdrop with guidance from our staff.
3. Photo selection (15 min) — pick your favorite shots.
4. Printing (15 min) — pick up your prints on the spot.
For the kids package, it’s about 1 hour 10 minutes (painting + shooting). Photo selection and printing happen by email and mail delivery after you go home.
We provide the painting shirt.
Please bring your own pants and socks. Paint doesn’t wash out, so wear something you don’t mind getting stained.
Tip: matching pants make for better photos — think jeans, harem pants, or loose loungewear.
No drawing skills needed. Everyone hesitates at first, but once you’ve covered the big backdrop you’ll leave satisfied.
Fill it with five colors and you already have something great. We’ll walk you through tips before you start.
