What Is An Interactive Photo Booth Rental?

Gone are the days of getting 3 small prints out of a chunky box, photo booth technology has leaped into the future. 

‍

Unlike traditional photo booths, interactive photo booths allow your guests to pick their filters, create gifs & boomerangs, take their own photos when they’re ready, and create unlimited fun. 

‍

Why Choose An Interactive Photo Booth For Your Business?

So how can a photo booth enhance a corporate or business event? Think of a photo booth as the ultimate icebreaker to move potential customers from distant to deeply engaged with your brand. 🤳

‍

Open-air photo booths hail as the golden beacon of attention-grabbing goodness. People see an open-air photo booth and immediately see others enjoying it. It creates that FOMO moment at your trade show or during your event, where everyone wants to be part of the action. 

‍

Plus, an interactive photo booth can play a huge part in your marketing strategy. What’s the best marketing? Marketing you pay for once and yet it keeps working over and over again. That’s the beauty of a photo booth. You pay for it once during your event and then boom – people post those photos, tag your business, and then others engage with the content online again and again. 

‍

So yes, it’s your Fairy Godmother of digital marketing who keeps waving her wand. 🧚

We placed photo booths in all 50 of IKEA’s locations during Grad Week to boost engagement with their target audience: College-bound kids and their parents.

You mean we got to combine our favorites of Star Wars and our love for purses into one promo? Yes, we did! We helped put super fun Star Wars-themed photo booth setups in 8 retail Coach stores in 6 different cities. Of course, each get was given lightsabers to

battle it out during their photo booth experience.
