Photo booths offer the best value for parties of 30+ guests because costs are fixed regardless of how many photos are taken. With a professional photographer, you get better individual shots but no instant take-home prints. Many parties use both a photo booth for fun guest interaction and a photographer to capture candid moments.
Tips for Getting the Most from Your Photo Booth
- Position the booth near the entrance or social hub of your venue β not tucked in a corner
- Add a hashtag to your print template so guests share digitally too
- Brief guests on the booth at the start of the event so they use it throughout, not just at the end
- For corporate events, customise the print template with your company logo and event name
- Pair the photo booth with a fabric arch backdrop for the most photogenic setup
- Book for at least 3 hours for events of 50+ guests to ensure everyone gets a turn without rushing
