Photo booths are becoming more and more popular as staple fixtures at big work parties, birthday, and weddings, and it’s easy to see why – they are fun, affordable, and a great conversation starter. Photo booths offer a great way to create instant memories, initiate new connections, and allow people to let their hair down and have fun playing dress-ups. Read on to find out just why photo booths are such a great asset at any party.
A Picture Tells 1000 Words
If you’ve hosted a birthday or wedding and left a guest book out the front, you might be lucky enough to have about half the guests sign the book, and they generally say the same thing. People read other people’s comments and say something just as “meaningful” but generally just as generic. A photo booth is a great way to document all the guests that were present at the party and to see them having a good time.
People Love Taking Photos of Themselves
We are in the age of the selfie, of Instagram, and of people uploading photos to Facebook of almost everything they do. Photo booths offer fun photos that you and your guests can add to their social media or hold onto print outs of for a keepsake. Having a Sydney photo booth service there at the beginning of a party is a great way to warm your guests up and get them into the party mood as they interact with each other and take funny snaps.
Customise Your Snaps
A great benefit of photo booths is they allow you to customise photo layouts, adding a polaroid style border with the event’s name, company name, or name of the bride and groom. This means your guests can take home photos from the night, put them on the wall, fridge, or in albums, know exactly when and where the photo was taken, and remember the night fondly.
Photo Booths are not expensive
Photo booths are now being used at a range of parties and events because they have become so affordable and value for money. Depending on the length of time and features you decide on hiring, a photo booth service can adjust its services to suit any budget.
You Can Sit Back and Enjoy the Party
One of the best things about a photo booth service is that it is one thing that you don’t have to worry about come the actual event. The photo booth service will set up, pack down and be self-reliant all night with a fun staff member/s who gets your guests in the mood. Photo booths are a fun addition to any party that require no work on your behalf, so you can sit back, have a drink and actually enjoy the party yourself.
Theme Your Photos
If you are holding a themed event, then a good photo booth service will bring their own props, backdrops, and costume items for your guests to put on and take snaps in. Whatever your theme, a photo booth will help even the most conservative of guests get into the theme and into the mood.
Photo booths are a great way of creating memories. Too often we organise and host great events for significant periods of our life and then try to scramble to find some good photos of the night from a range of guests who happened to be taking pictures on their phones. A photo booth offers a guaranteed range of fun photos of most of your guests interacting with each other and having a great time. They are the sorts of memories you want from a big event.
