The KissCam app can be utilized by organizations such as venues, sports teams, bands, conference organizers, and wedding planners. A branded photo frame is designed to meet all smartphone specifications, either by KissCam or the organization, and is available for download during the event. The custom frame is geo-fenced and only displayed to participants located within a certain distance of the event venue. Attendees download the app, place their photo in the custom event photo frame, and submit their photo. Semi-finalists are selected, and participants can vote on the photo they like best.
