Next big fad for events photobooths

I booked tons of photobooths last weekend. Seems like Photobooth rentals for weddings and other functions is really high. I've posted some helpful tips on my blog at www.rentphotobooth.com for those that are interested in making their own.

Good luck Rolland

Re: Next big fad for events photobooths

Rolland, the following link is bad (this is why I tought it was spam, did not check the first two link):

www.rentphotobooth.com = BAD LINK

By the way I like the idea, it brings a fun aspect to photography during an event...

Re: Next big fad for events photobooths

Why is this spam - Rolland obviously has a business doing this stuff ?

Re: Next big fad for events photobooths

Nice Rolland,
Nice side product, I love the idea, talk about diversification!
After reading a little more on your website these question came to my mind.

What printer do you use to print? Sony DyeSub?
What do you use for onsite processing? Express Digital?

Thanks, excellent work, hope you sell a LOT!

Claude

Re: Next big fad for events photobooths

I did a bridal show about 2 weeks ago and there was an outfit there renting booths like this. they did a free sample thing- VERY popular. Not sure how many are gonna pony up the required money for it though. I think $700 was their standard package (3 or 4 hours, unlimied use)

Re: Next big fad for events photobooths

Yes we're using sony dye subs and the software was custom written, but there are many alternatives as discussed in my blog.
and I messed up on my web site it should read:
Photobooth Nationwide Rentals $495 and up
forgot the stupid "S" I guess a lot of my customers will probably do the same, and unfortunately without an "S" it shows a list of competitors.

Re: Next big fad for events photobooths

I bought my forst Roll fed dyesub from Rolland back in 2004 when (if I'm not mistaken) he was first developing the booth idea
