2023 began our 58th year in the photo business. We use this experience to provide our clients with outstanding quality photos from our booths but just as important as good pictures is a good time. We've learned a lot about how to help clients and their guests enjoy their photo booth experience.

What makes photo booths such a great alternative to traditional photographers?
As both a traditional photography company and photo booth provider we get an inside look into the advantages of photo booths :
Fun- posing for a professional isn't necessarily fun but a photo booth is ALWAYS fun.
Ease- Your guests get their picture taken when they want.
Souvenir- the four-photo strip we provide goes with your guests 18 seconds after the last picture is taken. No waiting for pictures to be downloaded weeks later.
What photo booth props do you offer?
We offer many traditional photo booth props (mustaches on sticks, silly hats, oversize sun glasses etc.) but because we are complete photo company and printer we can also offer props that are custom for your event like bride and groom heads on sticks, silly signs with inside jokes and more.
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
First it needs to be technically correct. Lighting, color, exposure all need to be right. We use real cameras and real professional quality strobes in all our booths to take studio quality pictures in our photo booths. After that the guests take over. To us the real secret is to let the guests have a good time. We may suggest a prop or a pose here and there but the real fun the guests are having in the booth will show through and that's what makes a great photo booth photograph.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
Would you like an open or enclosed booth?
What is the theme for your event? What colors would you like to see in the background of your strips?
Can we create some props for you?
Would you like a photo guests book or a 12x12 inch book of the photos printed the after your event?
What do you love most about your job?
I get paid to go to parties and provide a great product that helps people have fun. What's not to love about that!?
What inspired you to start your own business?
We are a third generation business started in 1966 when the father and grandfather of the current owner sold their dairy herd to get into the photo business.
Why should our clients choose you?
Experience, reliability, image quality, unlimited booth visits, a photo strip for every guest in the photo, custom props, custom strip designs, ease of booking, ease of payment, 4 photos to a session, choice of print sizes, experienced professionals at dealing with clients' guests and creating a fun environment for the booth.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
No, but we can provide an online gallery so guests can download their pictures.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
We have always taken measures to keep our props clean and in safe condition for our clients' guests so those measures needed little changing. Beyond that all our attendants are fully vaccinated. We encourage social distancing in the booth waiting lines and have only been renting "open" style booths during the pandemic.
Photo Booth
We offer enclosed and open photo booths with outstanding photo quality. We could go on and on here about what makes a great photo booth experience and how we achieve it but we'll keep this short.
