the Photo Booths
Photique’s custom-built retro Photo Booths combine both the vintage feel of an old large format camera with the modern technology available today. An absolute show stopper that will have your guests talking long after the big day is over. From the stunning studio quality images, to the customizable animated gifs and instant email sharing capabilities, there is simply no other Photo Booth out there that has the same quality, appeal and functionality as the photoboothing powerhouse that is Photique.
The Photo Booth rents by the hour with a 3 hour minimum. Services include a full time Photo Booth attendant, unlimited digital pictures and gifs, photo filters, instant access to the images via email, a hosted photo gallery delivered the following day, custom watermark/logo abilities and use of our wide array of props and backdrops. Photo Booths booked alongside our Audio Guestbook services receive a special discount. Please reach out for current hourly rates.
WHAT’S INCLUDED?
Gifs
GIFs are a super fun and easy way to add movement to your photos. Guest can create a loop or boomerang of their favorite pictures and save them as an mp4 video. Not only do GIFs add an additional fun element to the event, but they also make for amazing, easily shareable social media content.
Attendant
Our friendly Photo Booth attendants are on site to not only set things up but also make sure everything runs smoothly throughout the entirety of the event. While the Photo Booth essentially runs itself, rest assured our team members are always close by should anyone need any type of assistance.
Email Sharing
Guests can instantly view and email their images using a touchscreen on the back of the booth, all while the next guests take their photo. But don’t worry, we got you covered too! The morning after, all your pics get uploaded to a web gallery where you can view, download and share all the stunning shots. View a sample gallery here.
Filters
Prefer the vintage and nostalgic feel of black and white photos? Want to go all wild west with the rich and warm hue of sepia tone? Not a problem! Photique can actually shoot in a number of different styles and looks. Looking for a particular vibe to your pictures? Reach out and we’ll be happy to see what we can do!
Props
From vintage to silly, we have an incredibly wide array of high quality props to match any theme. Our popular vintage collection is comprised of authentic items collected from antique stores that will make you feel like you’re on a Hollywood movie set. Want to keep the pictures classy with no props? That's cool too!
Branding
Photique is not just a fun experience for your guests, it can also be used as a very powerful marketing tool to promote your brand. Custom watermarks allow guests to share their pictures and GIFs with your logo on them, exposing your brand to new audiences. Lead capture and event analytics available as well.
BACKDROPS
While we prefer to shoot against an existing wall at your venue, sometimes a backdrop is just the better way to go. Photique has a wide variety of high quality curtains and tension fabric backdrops to choose from, allowing you to pick a theme to match your events color palette and feel. Looking for something in particular? Not a problem. Photique can do special orders on theme specific backdrops and also offers custom backdrops where clients are able to supply the actual design. Please note that tension backdrops are digital images on fabric and not real.
