Renting a photo booth for your event brings a fun, interactive experience to celebrations of every shape and size.

From weddings, birthdays and charity events to corporate events, trade fairs, festivals and conventions, the modern mirror photo booth for events entertains guests, captures memories and opens up marketing and brand engagement opportunities for companies.

The novelty of a photo booth is something guests will not forget in a hurry, and their reactions show it. We love hearing comments like "Your photo booth is so much fun!" But what really makes our day is when a guest says:

"Thank goodness you booked a photo booth. It really made the party!"

A wedding photo booth gives guests the chance to relax, have fun and be themselves. It is an excellent ice-breaker between guests who do not know each other, and it makes mingling and bonding easier at business events.

You can reinforce this by adding other games to the event, such as table football or virtual reality simulators, to keep guests interacting throughout.

Young or old, anyone can enjoy a photo booth at a wedding, birthday or corporate event. At children's parties, for example, the standby screen can be customised with the exact theme the client asks for, including faces, props and bespoke designs.

Photo booths also work very well at charity or memorial events. Placed near the finish line of a charity run, for instance, it becomes a meeting point where runners stop for fun photos, bringing a cheerful touch even to events with an emotional purpose.

On-site printing is standard with any photo booth: a print in just 10-12 seconds. There is no waiting for a professional photographer to retouch and edit the images: guests take them away on the spot, and can often access them online as well.

It is important to choose a service that does not limit reprints for large groups, so every guest goes home with a copy.

This feature has grown enormously in recent years. Today's software lets guests upload their photos straight to Facebook or email them from the mirror's touchscreen.

Some setups even let you print images already posted on Instagram using the event's specific hashtag (the couple, the company, and so on).

From themed backdrops and green screen to props and custom templates, there are plenty of ways to tailor the photo booth experience to any kind of event. Not every photo booth rental company offers the same level of customisation, so it pays to ask before choosing a supplier.

Most photo booth software lets you add a short survey before the photo session starts. It is an excellent way to capture leads or gather relevant data from current and potential clients in a natural, enjoyable way.

Photo booths work well at commercial events when a company or organisation is trying to grow its presence on social media. 

Run an event and encourage everyone to take photos and upload them to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram using a specific hashtag. When consumers have fun and engage with a brand's photo booth, they also leave with a great souvenir that carries the company's branding all over it. 

For companies, having a photo booth is a no-brainer. It not only gets your guests, staff and clients interacting during the event, it also builds your brand exponentially. Ask your guests to tag themselves in the photos on your company's Facebook page, or even to tag your brand and event details on Instagram!
