Valentine’s Day – Photo Booth

Valentine’s Day – Photo Booth

by | Feb 16, 2019 | photo booth, photography

After I made fake snow for the Holiday photo booth at school, I knew I wanted something equally fun for the Valentine’s Day party.

Cue the scrolling on Amazon for Valentine’s backdrops and Pinterest for ideas. A trip to Target netted the heart tablecloth (around $4) – and then a balloon search led me to Studio DIY’s great balloon letters.

I would be photographing all the 2nd grade classes as well as one for PreK.

I took over part of the blacktop and got ready. Besides great weather, fun props and cooperative kids, the best part was getting in the photos as well.

And now onto editing over 1,000 photos, and brainstorming ideas for a Mother’s Day set-up.

 

 

 

Let it Snow (in Texas) – Photo Booth Session

Let it Snow (in Texas) – Photo Booth Session

by | Dec 22, 2018 | photo booth, photography

It rarely snows in Austin, unless you happened to come to the Photo Booths I ran at the kids’ holiday parties last week. If you’d like to have your own Snow Booth, do the following steps:

  1. First step, order fake snow from Amazon.

2. Pack up all the gear you need


Bring extra sandbags since the forecast calls for an extra windy day. Don’t forget the backdrop!

3. Set up your backdrop at school

That’s a LOT of wind.

Wrestle with the wind.

Move to a second location that’s slightly less windy.

4. Show the younger kids how to throw the snow – and enjoy how each kid in Texas appreciates playing in snow.

5. Move the set-up to the older kid’s class

6. Shake all the snow off, pack up the gear and head home to edit.

7. Start planning the Valentine’s Photo Booth for the next class party…
