Bhoto Booth

Meet the maker.

My name is Mace Grunsfeld. I’m a mechanical engineer and arcade mechanic by trade, but my heart is in the event scene.

It started in the dust.

The idea for Bhoto Booth hit me while I was at Lightning in a Bottle. I was surrounded by people in incredible, creative costumes. They were radiating pure joy. I looked around and thought, “These people look amazing, and they need a way to capture this right now.”

I didn’t want to just offer them a smartphone selfie. I wanted to give them a tactile memory that matched the effort they put into their self-expression.

Doing it right the first time.

If I was going to build a booth, I wanted to do it properly. I wanted something solid, with room to pile in together and real photo strips to take home.

I build and maintain every booth myself in my local workshop. My booths bring together the materials I discovered in high school robotics and the design methods I learned getting my engineering degree.

From robotics to raves.

I apply the same technical care to Bhoto Booth that I use to keep arcade games running across San Francisco. I’m an engineer who loves a good party.

Let’s make something memorable.
