Top 5 Deciding Factors in Choosing a Photo Booth
1) The Quality of the Photos & Photo booth
Photo booths provide a great experience, but taking fantastic looking pictures to keep and share with friends is the real priceless payoff. Compare the pictures before the prices. Being able to compare your quality photos to the competition is the easiest way to make more sales and charge more. What should you look for?

2) Is it Reliable?
Creating and maintaining a system to automate taking a great picture and having it print out instantly takes some skill. The design and setup will effect the reliability Many booths require you to reassemble all the components and take them apart after each event. There can be over 20 different cords that you have to set up sometime in the dark at an event. This is a recipe for causing confusion, missing parts, broken parts, and a very stressful and embarrassing time as you frantically search for a loose wire in the middle of an event. Make sure your booth has a simplified process that will simply work every time. We have heard too many stories about other companies starting late or ending early because something was malfunctioning.
3) How easy and fast is the setup?
Many photo booths average about an hour for set up and another hour for take down. This often require bolts and screws, running cords through multiple holes, and lots of lifting. Make sure your booth is truly portable and easy to setup. This is hugely important because it means your less stressed, less rushed, not getting sweaty from heavy lifting. With a portable system less can go wrong, less can break, and it's easier to train employees to run events. Most importantly, if you save an hour on set up and take down that means you're saving more than 40 hours of your time throughout a year. It's like taking a week long paid vacation.

4) How Many People Can it Fit?One of the first questions brides will ask is "Can I fit all my bridesmaids in the booth at the same time?" Some of the hard body booths have a certain vintage appeal to them, but they are usually limited to 2 tightly squeezed people and are not handicap accessible. The other side of the coin is the companies with booths so big that ten peoples entire bodies fit in the frame. A photo booth strip is only two inches wide! You would have to squint to see who is in the picture. Look for a booth that will look good for having just two people but can accommodation the wedding party piling in and trying to see how many faces can fit in the frame.
5) How Portable is it?Many companies require a van or truck to move their photo booths. This is the most overlooked factor new entrepreneurs make. That is a huge extra expense and restricts your growth for the future if you want to add a second booth. It also means you will have to trust your future employees to drive your van. Make sure the booth can fit in a standard 4 door car and then the employee can use there own car. This will save you a lot of money and headache. Lastly, find out how you move it from the car to the event. Is it tons of pieces? Is it ridiculously heavy? How much lifting is required? It's a huge bonus to have built in wheels so it rolls effortlessly with out stacking crates on a dolly or taking several trips and carrying heavy equipment through a crowded event.

Being able to compare your quality photos to the competition is the easiest way to make more sales and charge more. What should you look for?
- A great lighting system that doesn't cause red eye, glare, or uneven shadows. We've tested them all and believe high quality lighting can only be achieve in a photo booth with continuous full spectrum lighting.
- What kind of camera does it use? Many companies use web cams in their photo booths. The best photos are taken with dslr cameras like Canon or Nikon, the same that a wedding photographer would use.
- Is it a dye-sublimation printer or an ink jet printer? Make sure it's a professional dye-sublimation printer. It will save money on ink and paper, will take less then 10 seconds to print, and give you the same quality prints you could expect from Walgreens An ink jet will take close to 50 seconds to print, will smudge, be grainy, and have lower quality paper.
