2012 Photo-strip Hall of Fame: #8

Posted 1/30/13 in: Connecticut Featured Martha’s Vineyard Massachusetts New Hampshire / Northern MA / Southern ME Rhode Island Sidebar Vermont / Upstate NY

This photo-strip really speaks for itself. Obviously this was a staged joke shot – but, yes, while rare, the photo booth does occasionally function in a “boudoir photography” capacity. Usually any discussion of “photos saved to a disc” keeps things PG-13 though.

2012 Photo-strip Hall of Fame: #9

This series of photos from a wedding in Connecticut is so beautiful it should be considered a work of art. Capturing families sharing a moment in our photo booth is one of things that makes what we do meaningful. And again, if I’ve said it once I’ve said it a thousand times: the quality of the images produced by our photobooths is the first thing guests comment on. Not only how clear they are, but how GOOD they look in them. Stay tuned for next weeks Hall of Fame strip. I’m not sure “meaningful” is the word I would use to describe it 😉

2012 Photo Strip Hall-of-Fame #10.

Thought it would be fun to look back at some of the best work that our clients and their guests put together in our photo booths through out the year.  Inclusion in the 2012 Hall of Fame was entirely subjective and at the whim of one judge: Me (Geoff Gordon – owner of Photobooth Planet in Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Massachusetts).   If you have enjoyed one of our photobooth rentals during the past year and would like to submit a photo-strip from your wedding or other event for consideration in the Photo-strip HOF, please email .jpgs to geoff@photoboothplanet.com

And so, without further ado, here is #10.  Chosen because there’s nothing like packing seven sweaty groomsmen into a confined space and taking a a few pictures for posterity.

Everyone Loves a Photo Booth – Especially Kids!

Posted 5/14/12 in: Connecticut Featured Martha’s Vineyard Massachusetts New Hampshire / Northern MA / Southern ME Rhode Island Sidebar Vermont / Upstate NY

Weddings really are an inter-generational celebration – from the great grandparents down to the flower girls and the ring bearer. It is a gathering of the people in your life (of all ages) who love you. Fortunately there are many inter-generational attractions at a wedding: amazing food, crazy dancing, and of course – the photo booth. Everyone loves the photo booth, but one group of humanity ESPECIALLY loves it: kids. They just can’t wait to draw the curtain in their cozy little space, press the big, green button, make silly faces for the camera, and then, THE BEST PART – wait for the booth to magically deliver their photo-strips. At Photobooth Planet, we encourage maximum use of the photo booth rental. We want the guests to use it over and over again and most of our littlest guests do go home with quite a stack of photos. But we also know how to politely make sure everyone gets a turn and that no one (of any age) takes over the booth. Here are some of my favorite photos of children having fun with the photobooth at a few recent weddings in Connecticut and Rhode Island.

Here is an amazing wedding film by Mike Cyr at Buzz Media from a wedding we did at one of our favorite venues: Saltwater Farm Vineyard in Stonington CT. The vendor team was an all-star cast with Sarah True as planner, Yumiko Fletcher from Hana Floral Design providing flowers, catering by Gourmet Galley, DJ Doug from Power Posse providing entertainment, and Anna Sawin Photography, and of course, photo booth rental by Photobooth Planet.
