What happens when you cram up to 10 people in a box, and add a camera? Just about anything and everything! It’s an old idea that’s new again – the photo booth. Photo Booths Then…
Remember going to Grandma’s house when you were little, and looking through her boxes of old photos? Chances are you would have come across a strip of black and white shots, each about an inch and a half square. They’d ha
ve been taken in a coin-operated booth that contained a camera and a film processor. There would have been a seat, a curtain for privacy, and not much room. Even Grandma’s great-grandma may have used a photo booth! The concept was first patented in 1888 by Edward Poole and William Pope of Baltimore, and the first working model was shown by a French inventor by the name of T.E. Enjalbert at the Paris World Fair in 1889.
…And Now! Today’s photo booths go far beyond those original cramped, units that produced only black and white shots. You can still get strips of pictures if that’s what you want, but modern booths also generate stickers, postcards, and videos with audio. You can even choose custom backdrops and different lighting options! Who Needs a Photo Booth? We’ll be completely honest. No one NEEDS a photo booth. But they’re a ton of fun at:
• Weddings
• Graduations
• Birthday parties
• Holiday parties
• Bar/bat mitzvahs
• Bridal or baby showers
• Holiday parties
• Anniversaries
• Proms
• Corporate events, conventions and trade shows
• Community or charity events
• And just about anywhere else that people gather. Why not channel your inner silliness? Silly Snaps will provide you with the latest photo booth equipment and digital technology, including IntelliTouch screens, iPod-ready speaker systems, Facebook and email uploading capability, and dual photo and video capability. A friendly attendant will walk your guests through the process, and then leave them behind the curtain to get creative. A Word of Warning…
