PhotoBooth Setup Mistakes

Wedding days are one of the most highly anticipated moments of one’s life. It’s an extraordinary occasion for lovers to seal their devotion to each other through the time honoured tradition and share it with their families and friends. Every individual has his or her image of what a perfect wedding day for them, even if they are not yet engaged. However, the actual planning and preparation start with the big “Yes!”

Wedding preparation can often be a tiring, confusing, and stressful process. Through this period, the couple would want everything to be the best. From the date of the wedding, the venue, the officiant, the wedding dresses, the music, the food, and the guest list, it must all be according to plan. And one of the necessities on the wedding day is the choice of photographers for the couple and who will prepare the photo booth for the guests so that you can always revisit your wonderful day.

Photobooths provide your guests with souvenirs for them to keep and allow for those who may be a little camera shy still get in your wedding photos. If you want to maximise your investment for the photobooth, then communicate with the photographers early on to avoid these four common photobooth setup mistakes when considering a photobooth for your wedding.

4 PhotoBooth Setup Mistakes to Avoid on Your Wedding Day

  1. The Theme Not Matching the Party

This must be the first aspect to consider hiring a photo booth. Inspect the layout of the printed photos to ensure that it matches well with your wedding motif. It’s best to request that their physical booth will also back the theme and ambience of the venue. Otherwise, it may be out of place and can ruin your perfect day.

Most photobooth suppliers offer a selection of templates for the printouts provided – if they don’t mention it simply ask and they will be more than keen on showing you some selections.

  1. The Location Not Being Ideal

The photobooth must be located somewhere in the venue that everyone can easily see and conveniently attend. This can be achieved by finding the optimum space where people can unavoidably pass by it and be encouraged to have their pictures taken.

Although photo booths have a high appeal to most people, some do not have that much inclination to voluntarily walk up to the booth’s location. This is why it is still good to consider the ideal positioning of the photo booth!

  1. An Attendant Not Being Present

A photobooth with an attendant present makes it more managed and organised. And beside or nearby the photobooth, a presentable guest book can also be available so that guests can fill it up with their best wishes for the lovely couple while waiting for their turn at the photobooth – or sticking in their printed copy of the photos they just took.

The SvenStudios photobooth somes with quite an array of props and the area can be messy without someone nearby tasked with cleaning it up – an attendant would also be tasked with making sure the booth is running correctly and is well stocked with paper and ink.

  1. The Time Slot Not Fitting the Party Activities

Because photobooths are only hired for a limited period, it is best to put them in a time slot wherein guests will be wandering about the venue waiting for the bride and the groom. Some photobooths are mistakenly scheduled when the party has a highly engaging activity. In the end, the photographers get sidelined and gain the most minor attraction to the audience. If the photobooth is not maximised during its hired time, then the moments of your guests will be significantly reduced to the ones taken by the hired photographers.

The SvenStudios photobooth tends to be hired out for the whole reception – we dont like putting an hourly limit on our bridal couples!

Although your party will not be that affected by one or two of the basic mistakes we’ve mentioned above, it would be relaxing to know that your guests can find another things to do and enjoy while celebrating with you on your very special day. If you want to have the most memorable day of your life, be sure to consider the information on photobooth setup mistakes outlined above so that you can reduce one stress point on your big day!

These photobooth setup mistakes are things you need not worry about with Sven Studios and our professional photobooth hire in Adelaide. We offer award winning photobooth services that will help you craft the precious memories of your wedding day.

Benefits of Hiring a Photo Booth For Your Wedding

Your wedding is one of the most significant celebrations of your life. As you embark a new journey, it only makes sense to document every single precious moment of this big day through wedding photos. 

Aside from hiring a wedding photographer to capture the important parts of your wedding, another way of preserving unforgettable memories through high-quality images is by hiring a photo booth. You may consider not having it at all in your venue to save money, but trust us when we say that it is worth every penny. Here are some of its benefits:

3 Benefits of Hiring a Photo Booth

  • It offers entertainment to your guests

Common wedding entertainment options include putting on the perfect music that suits the ambience, sharing exciting song and dance performances, and showing some of your wedding videos to your friends and family. But over time, your guests may find themselves glancing at their watches every once in a while. 

If you’re looking for a unique way to keep your guests entertained and engaged, add a photo booth at your reception. You won’t have to worry whether they are enjoying the party or not, and they can have fun by themselves by striking their favourite poses and using various props. 

A photo booth is also enjoyable for all ages. It is one of the best ways to get your senior guests out of their seats and have them interact with the younger crowd. Plus, it gives them the opportunity to take more photos with their family.

Some people also prefer having their photo taken by an inanimate object such as a photo booth as many can be camera shy, and regardless on how awesome your wedding photographer is, they would just prefer not to have their photo taken!

  • It serves as the perfect keepsake

A photo booth prints photos right after they were taken, which means your guests can get instant souvenirs from your wedding day. These photos can serve as the perfect keepsake that will remind the people dearest to your heart of the heartwarming moments they had during the most special day of your life. They can also stick them in their fridge and keep them there for years to come. You can also download them and print multiple copies of your favourite photos.

The printed strips can also function as a personalised addition to your guest book, where your guests will stick one of the strips they recieve onto a page along with a heartfelt note.

  • It adds to the overall style of your venue

Some photo booths have stylish setups that can add to the overall look and feel of your venue. This is what you get when you seek our photo booth solution. Aside from offering wedding photography, we provide a photo booth for hire with a one-of-a-kind open-air design.

It allows for your entire party to see what’s going on in front of the camera and join in on the fun. In addition, it has a luxurious red or white curtain as a backdrop and a large selection of funny props and costumes.

3 Tips to Having a Memorable Wedding Photo Booth Experience

Having a Memorable Wedding Photo Booth Experience

Wedding days are truly special occasions, especially when it’s you and your significant other’s turn. That’s why having a photo booth is important to have during the reception to capture the happy faces and heartfelt messages of your guests without the shyness some people feel in front of your actual wedding phtoographer. But what exactly can make your photo booth truly memorable?

This article will discuss three practical tips to make certain that you can look back at your wedding day and say you and your guests had a memorable wedding photo booth experience. Take this as an opportunity to plan for your big day well by looking into the important services. This way, you and your future spouse can look forward to the success and excitement of your wedding!

3 Tips to Having a Memorable Wedding Photo Booth Experience

1. Ensure the setup, management, and removal are all taken care of

You definitely don’t want to be stressed on your special day, meaning you don’t want to go through the trouble of setting up and repacking the photo booth. After all, it’s your wedding day, and your first moments as a newly married couple should be spent in celebration. You also don’t want to burden your guests with these tasks.

As such, find a wedding photo booth provider that will set up, manage, and pack up the photo booth for you. Doing this lets you have one less thing to worry about and focus more on making wonderful memories with your guests. You may even have the chance to join them at the photo booth!

What I tend to do at weddings with my own photo booth is set up at the venue prior to heading to the groom’s place of preparation – that way it’s ready to go as soon as the reception starts. Then I just pack it up at the end of the night.

2. Designate a time in the program for pictures and socialising

You can have the best wedding photo booth in the world, but it can all go to waste if there’s not enough time during the reception for picture taking. It will just be a huge inconvenience for you and your guests, plus you will just be wasting money. That’s why it’s recommended to at least have some time dedicated to the photo booth and other wedding festivities.

To ensure everyone has time to try the booth, you should count the number of guests attending and the duration of your reception. All you need to do is have a portion of your reception not dedicated to anything else – it doesnt have to be ‘NOW EVERYONE TO THE PHOTOBOOTH!’ Just a time where there are no speeches, meals being served and whatnot. Also make sure everyone knows it’s there by asking your MC to mention that you’d like everyoneo use it!

This way, everyone can come home with their own photos to remember your special day!

3. Ask the photo booth provider how guests will receive pictures

The standard function of every photo booth is to offer patrons a chance to take photos with their friends and family and print them out as their keepsakes. There are even times when you can get the digital copy of the photos afterwards, allowing you and your group to download them and post them on social media.

All these expectations may be something you and your guests want from your wedding photo booth. So make sure to ask your provider how everyone will receive their photos. Ideally, you want something that they can print out and also download online to ensure they can get their memorabilia!

Generally my own photobooth will take 4 photos of the guests and print out a strip in duplicate. The idea beaing that one guests can keep as a keepsake from your wedding, and the other gets stuck into a photobooth guestbook or put into the wishing well.

Having a photo booth at your wedding can be a meaningful way for your guests to interact with one another and have a good time.

Wedding Reception Keepsake Activities

February 22, 2015/in ideas, Wedding

Over the past 4 years as a wedding photographer I’ve come across a number of fun and interesting wedding reception keepsake activities you might undertake to produce a physical keepsake for your reception guests so they remember your wedding reception. The following suggestions are designed to put a smile on your guests face beyond the usual delicious food and drink they’d be served at a wedding reception and of course seeing the lovely newly wed couple.

Having a photobooth at a wedding reception has almost become a standard that produces a wedding reception keepsake. The above image was taken from a recent wedding I covered where the photobooth printed out numerous copies of a strip of photos that your guests can keep as their wedding reception keepsake, while the other copy could be glued into a blank album allowing them to write well wishes and document the reception in a way that nothing else can. SvenStudios now offers their own photobooth solution geared towards the budget conscious.

Sketch Artist

A really novel idea I’ve seen twice now at different weddings is the idea of having a wandering sketch artist sketching caricatures of your guests as their wedding reception keepsake. The benefit of this is the production of a really personal image that is really quite different than the vast majority of wedding receptions out there, so if you want to make an impression, having a sketch artist present may be a winner. The above image is a caricature of myself by sketch artist Peter BroelMan who was present at a recent wedding I was wedding photographer at. I really hope this idea catches on as it produces some awesome reactions from guests and can provide a truly unique wedding reception keepsake.

Polaroid Cameras

Poloroid cameras

Perhaps the most common of wedding reception keepsake ideas is having a polaroid camera, or several sitting around the wedding reception venue available for guests to use themselves. The idea being that your guests would wander about shooting their own photos of the night hopefully capturing quirky situations your professional wedding photographer wouldn’t. The great thing about polaroid cameras is that it instantly prints a small square image as soon as you take the photos, thereby becoming your wedding reception keepsake. You can see a few of the square polaroid prints on the table in the shot I took above at Leonie & Andrew’s Monarto Zoo wedding. The problem with polaroid cameras however is that often, unless you invest well in the cameras, they don’t like low light situations, such as the typical wedding reception venue, so beware. But they do tend to be better for the purpose of creating keepsakes than your typical disposable camera, which are also very popular at wedding receptions, as they allow your guests to take something home.
