Your own artwork, in the skin of the Photobooth - Unique !!

Our photobooth is unique in the UK market, in that any graphic artwork can actually be placed 'inside' the skin of the booth - to give a really professional look.  Other UK PhotoBooth hire operators say they can offer 'personalised graphics' but in reality these are just stuck onto the outside of the booth, sometimes even with blu-tac.

As you can see from our price plans page, we can create these graphics for £100/panel - for this we get a professional external graphic designer to do the artwork and then have it printed onto plastic paper (the type used in lightboxes in shopping arcades) - this gets used for your event and then given to you at the end, for your own use (or to use in the booth at your next event!).  Here is an example of the booth, kitted out for a corporate function :-

However, not everyone wants to spend £100 0n a panel, and although many think about the 'idea' we tend to only get corporates who actually order it, also it takes 3 weeks to order, and this isn't always possible.

We have always offered to use clients own artwork for free - we give the dimensions, they provide the artwork - but again, it was mainly used for corporate functions.  Then a few weeks ago we went to a party where the host had created a large board and put loads of photos all over it in a collage - it was much admired by the guests, and as it was next to the booth, we saw the amusement that others saw in seeing themselves 10years previously with the host - this got us thinking . . . . . . .

Last week, we had the perfect opportunity to test this new idea. We were booked for a 21st/50th Party and the host wanted a 'personalised' panel - however we did not have time as the party was only a week away . . . . . I gave her my suggestion . . . . . . . 'create your own photo collage and we'll put it in the skin of the booth'. We gave the host the dimensions needed (approx 72cm by 170cm) and gave her some advice - get your favourite photos blown up large, scatter other photos around and mount them on card - you can get large card from any art shop - you will need 3 pieces for each panel, then just overlap them and sellotape together . . .

The result was spectacular :-

The photos looked so good 'in the skin'. The host made 2 panels, one for each end (slightly different sizes) :-

Guests thought it was a great idea and many spent ages looking at the photos.

It would have been possible to have done all 4 panels - but usually the shape of the booth means that 2 panels are always most prominent - the booth is actually horse shoe shaped at each end, and therefore more rounded than photos suggest - here is a photo showing the photo panels next to our usual blank panel :-

We think that this feature would really appeal to a lot of the events that we do, weddings, Bar Mitzvah, 21st Parties, Xmas Parties etc . . . . .  The hosts also get the fun of creating the 'collage', collecting the photos and putting them onto the card.  The cost remains low . . .we are happy, as it is another reason to book your photobooth through FlashBoxUK Photo Booth Rental.
