Ditch the DIY Photo Booth and Go With The Pros!
If you’re hosting a corporate event, wedding, class or family reunion, or a party, you want to provide your guests or attendees with as many fun, memorable moments as possible. Of course, you’ll have food, music, or games to keep guests having a blast, but providing a photo booth lets your guests capture the moment and get as silly or as serious as they want.
If you go online to look at photo booths, you’ll see plenty of websites that show you how to create your own photo booth, and you may be tempted to do so. However, a DIY photo booth is not going to be as good as the real thing. Read on to discover what makes a professional photo booth a bargain in the long run!
A DIY Photo Booth is Time-Consuming to Set Up
If you’re creating your DIY photobooth, you’re going to need a list of materials including a tripod, lighting source, digital camera, props, and a photo printer. Plus, you’re going to need a backdrop and a space to put your photo-booth together.
So, your easy project is looking more like a scavenger hunt than a quick project and that’s not even including getting the booth built or the camera and lighting sources set up. On top of that, getting these supplies for what is most likely the only time you’ll need them is NOT cost-effective, so you’ll be spending quite a bit of money for items you’ll only use a few times, tops.
A Professional Photo Booth Company Provides Everything You Need
If you want a booth for your guests, a professional photo booth already has everything you need. Not only does the company have a camera specifically made for your guests’ needs, but they have a clear understanding of lighting needs and locations to ensure your guests get the best pictures available.
Many companies will also go beyond the basic needs of a photo booth to provide props that keep with the theme of your event. If you’re having a wedding, they’ll have signs, hats and veils, and other things to help your guests send the bride and groom their cheerful well-wishes, or if you’re having a themed party, like a luau-theme, they’ll provide big sunglasses, leis, and grass skirts.
Professional Photo Booth Companies Handle the Set-Up and Take Down
When you’re putting together a huge gathering, whether it’s a family reunion, wedding, or conference, you’ve got a lot on your plate. The last thing you need to worry about is taking the time to set up and take down a photo booth on top of your other responsibilities.
When you hire a professional photo booth company, they do all the work for you, from setting up to taking down. All you have to do is direct them where to go with their equipment! It’s stress-free and simple, which, when you’re elbows-deep in event planning, is a good thing.
Upload Photos Straight to Social Media and Personalize Prints
The biggest benefit of having a professional photo booth company over a DIY photo booth is the ability to upload photos directly to social media. Rather than having guests try and do it individually, a professional company offers social media integrations that let users share directly to their own social media or to the event’s social media pages.
Guests also want a memento of the occasion, and having immediate prints of their photos is convenient and fun. Even better is when the photo prints out with a customized magnet frame that guests can easily keep for as long as they wish.
