Maximize Your Photo booth Experience
Photo booths have been popular for decades at malls and arcades across the country, so it’s no surprise that they’re now a must-have item at weddings, parties, and other big events. A photo booth is a great, fun way to record a special day spent with friends. These tips will help you get the most out of your photo booth experience.
– Put the booth in a high traffic area. It won’t get much use if it’s out of the way. Out of sight, out of mind.
– Make messages for the tables telling guests about the photobooth and encouraging them to go take a picture. Have your DJ or a member of the wedding party make an announcement reminding people that the photobooth is open.
– Hire a company who will make a photostrip guestbook on the spot. You will leave with an unforgettable memory that will last forever. Make sure the company that you choose has a photobooth that will print double strips. That way your guests can put one photo into the book and keep one for themselves.
– Request a CD of all the photostrips that are taken during your event. You will be glad you did. Make a gallery or Facebook album of all the photos and invite all your friends and family to check them out. Some companies will even include a free online gallery of all the photos. Usually for a small price your guests can purchase additional prints and download the digital file.
– Decorate the photobooth. Get creative. Put flowers around the booth. Christmas lights, palm trees. Design a custom poster or backdrop. Make it unique for your special day.
– Make sure your most outgoing friends encourage people to use the booth. This will spark the fun and make for a lot of crazy photostrips.
– Don’t forget to stop and take some photos for yourself! Get your new bride or groom into the booth and have some fun, or see how many of your friends you can pack into the booth with you! These are guaranteed to be some of your favorite pictures from the day.
– Make sure to get a quality photobooth from a quality vendor with a good reputation. Not all photobooths are created equally. Anybody can set up a camera in an enclosed space, but a quality photo booth rental company will have an authentic classic style photobooth and more importantly a friendly, knowledgeable attendant who knows how to encourage guests to take great photos and put together an awesome photostrip guestbook. As with any other product or service, you get what you pay for. Photobooths are no exception.
