As everyone knows, a Photo Booth makes any event, but works even better if you know all the answers to the main frequently asked questions.
When should the photo booth be available to guests?
The hire time is entirely up to you, it is for four hours or you can add on extra hours for a little extra. The hire time also, varies with each different event. For parties and weddings it is usually best to have the hire time after everyone has eaten, this is when the guests that do not like to get up in front of people dancing are left wondering what to do. The photo booth is part of the entertainment at any event and gives guests who aren’t boogying on the dance floor a chance to get involved in something special.
Where should I keep the photo booth?
The photo booth is best in the same room as the event taking place, keeping it close to your guests so that it is visible to them and it gets used, leaving you with lots of pictures and video messages to look back on. Also, it is very important that if you have fun screens with the photo booth that far apart, so that the images can be viewed on the screens by all guests.
Scheduling?
Our attendants come an hour before your selected hire time so there are no disruptions or mad rush to get it all set up. It is best to make sure the venue knows when the photo booth attendant will be there for setup and also if there are any special requirements regarding security e.g. parking, ways in and out, name badges. The booth is in little parts so is very easy to get through doors and it is also a quick and quiet process of putting it up so whether you’re eating your meal at the event there will not be any loud bangs while this goes on.
Have the DJ or Master announces the photo booth
Most DJ’s will help the photo booth attendant build the excitement. If you mention to the DJ that the booth is there and ask him to announce to the guests to let everyone know about the photo booth’s where about, they then have the chance to have fun in the booth and don’t miss out.
Another thing that the DJ could help with is, if you would like specific people to have their turn in the photo booth let the attendant and DJ know to make sure that these people such as parents get to have pictures and leave a message on the video messaging system for you view whenever you like in the future.
In the early years of 1888 the first ever photo booth was filed for a patent by William Pope and Edward Poole of Baltimore, but some doubt that the photo booth was ever actually made. Read More…
As you know a photo booth is a photo kiosk, sometimes you find them in public places so you can take pictures for your passport, and your driving license etc…
But in the past few years photo booths have been in huge demand to hire at events such as weddings, birthdays, engagements, anniversaries, bar mitzvah’s, proms, college parties, graduations, re-unions, corporate events, and many more social occasions.
In America the photo booth systems are pretty much the same, except they are more often used publicly as they are only just discovering the fact that photo booth hire makes social events so much more fun. Typical American photo booths are digital, and have a seat inside, the photo booth entrance is also typically surrounded by a curtain, similar to the UK photo booth systems.
American photo booths are usually coin operated, when the money is inserted the photo booth takes a series of photographs , before each photo is taken, there is an indication such as a countdown, or a light, which signals the customer to pose for camera, after the last photograph is taken the booth begins developing the photos that have been taken, which usually takes about 30 seconds, the photos are then delivered to the customer through a little slot in the machine.
There is not many differences between American photo booths and UK photo booths, except for the fact more photo booths are hired for events in the UK rather than just using ones in public places. Both photo booth systems offer the choice of full colour pictures and black and white, some American photo booths even offer the option of a caricature effect.
There are 4 times as many photo booths in the UK than in America. As American use them purely for normal things. Where as the UK hire them for their special events as entertainment.
