There are very few markets that constantly crave the latest idea to wow guests than that of the wedding industry. If you have been lucky enough to attend a number of wedding receptions during the last 12 months, we are sure you will have seen or heard about the idea of a wedding photo booth.

Whilst photo booths have been popular forms of entertainment at functions for many years in America, this latest photo craze has been gaining rapid interest in the UK over the last couple of years. With many operators offering extended running hours during the evening reception, unlimited prints and a range of fancy dress props, a wedding photo booth delivers great fun for everyone involved. BoothStar who offer photo booth hire Bournemouth, also provide a guest book service allowing guests to leave a copy of their image along with a personal message.

Despite the growth of photo booths over recent years for events, there remains very little quality information about how traditional photo booths are made. A recent show of ’How it’s Made’ on Discovery TV shows one of the best examples we have seen.

If you are looking to build a photo booth for business or personal use some of the most important elements to consider include:

The booth construction – metal, wood or light weigh materials suited to easy transportation.
The camera – a standard compact digital or a DSLR.
The photo booth program – ‘off the shelf’ or custom development
Ambient lighting in the booth and studio head
The printer – ink jet or dye sub
