Why Book a Photo Booth AND a Photographer?

Whether it's a wedding reception, a school dance or a birthday party, you may notice some events have both a designated photographer as well as an open-air photo booth. While both do similar jobs, they don't necessarily cancel each other out and can inf act complement each other. Here are a few reasons Pensacola Photo Booth and your favorite photographer can work so well together:

1. Photographers excel at candid photos; photo booths favor poses and props.

There is no better way to naturally capture memories of your event than to have a photographer catch you and your guests in the moment. Candid photographs convert action into still life, a snapshot of exactly how everything occurred. Photo booths, on the other hand, give enough time to make silly faces, move around in the shot, put on some costumes and have a few different takes. The photographs are high-quality, but people have a greater say in how they turn out.

2. Photographers edit their photos; photo booths produce instant prints.

When the event is over, the job isn't done for a photographer, who takes the raw images and tweaks them in Lightroom or Photoshop. This results in a high-quality final product for the client, and is worth every penny. Pensacola Photo Booth has the ability to print its photos immediately, with a custom graphic overlay. Not only can you get your photos online on Smugmug, but guests can have a souvenir within minutes. Some clients even use the immediate prints to fill a photo scrapbook to document all event attendees.

3. Photo booths also serve as a form of entertainment.

Not only is the open-air photo booth fun for those in front of the camera, but for those waiting their turn as well. Seeing family and friends not so camera-shy inspires the rest of the crowd to

fit in their own photo session. Photo booths are complimentary to the DJ, dance floor and any party games happening.
