The Photo Booth Again

The Photo Booth now has a frame & walls. This past weekend we also did a Photo Booth Wedding Guest Book with images from the photo booth.  The guests LOVED it.  I got SO many compliments about how fun it was and they loved the idea of the book too.

Photo Retouching

I often get requests when preparing images for enlargements to make people look a little better than life if you know what I mean, well I am one of those people too. I like to smooth things over and look my best in my pictures too, so I will use a my own photo to show what is possible and you can judge for yourself. You know all the magazines airbrush or photoshop their models, celebrities and so on. To view these examples in a larger size, go to this gallery.

The Photo Booth is a Big Hit

This past weekend the Photo Booth was in full swing.  Everyone was having lots of fun making their own pictures and getting to show them off right after they were taken.  Several people also asked about ordering prints and enlargements that were taken during their photo booth session.  It was such an exciting experience.  I love how it creates the excitement of the guests and gets them mingling with each other.  I am sure more people will be taking advantage of the photo booth once they learn about it. If you look at the example image above, you will see that there are actually 2 photo strips that are produced from each photo booth session.  This photo booth was in coordination with my husband’s DJ service, so that is why it says america-dj.com at the bottom of these strips.  So of course it goes without saying, if you need a great DJ for your event, I have connections. 

Tony Gonzalez Shop With A Jock 2010

This time last night we were at the Walmart in Cumming, GA taking photos of the kids shopping with the football players from the Atlanta Falcons team.  The Atlanta Union Mission sent out around 50 children and Walmart gave each child a $100 Gift Card to spend on anything they wanted.  Several of the kids came to check out with new bikes and all kinds of fun stuff.  They really enjoyed shopping.  Us grown ups had fun too.  I was contacted about providing each of the kids with a photo from the event to take home with them.  I had some awesome help, which was much needed especially when the kids came to check out with much enthusiasm.  I quickly noticed a lot of Walmart shoppers buying footballs to collect autographs.  :)  I shared some of the photos on facebook and I noticed Tony Gonzalez added one of them to his own album on the page.

Atlanta Photo Booth Services

I have been working on getting the Photo Booth up and running to provide service for events and weddings for people who would like to have a photo booth where guests can do a sequence of images and also to have an instant photo strip to enjoy immediately.  I have it set up where each photo sequence gives you TWO photo strips of each sequence.  The idea here is you the host get to determine if you would like to keep a copy for yourself or give both copies to your guest(s).  What a lot of people like to do is provide a scrapbook, glue sticks, pens, etc. to allow your guests to place your 2nd copy that you keep into a book and sign it or write you a note....  a perfect idea for weddings!  We remain in the photo booth assisting, managing and encouraging your guests to participate.  We provide you with the props and plenty of enthusiasm.  We make sure everything is running smoothly and keep things moving along.  Oh and you can specify what you want at the top of the photo strips, it could be your name(s), date, special message, a company logo... almost anything.  And if you are going to keep a copy of the strips, your half could be blank or say something else...  allowing you to totally customize your photo booth.  You can also supply additional props or a special background if you like.  Once someone does their photo sequence (4 poses), then in less than 1 minute, the photo strips print out.  They measure 2 inches by 6 inches each strip.
