Photo Booth Etiquette: Recommendations & Non-Recommendations

Image

There's so much to photo booths, from cool effects, customizations, and instant video/image sharing, to sizable party favors. They can fit any event setting or any event type. Plus, you won't be bored if you hire Digi photo booths for your event. 

You know, photo booths can add a fun and festive touch to any event, whether an informal wedding or a formal corporate event. They are also great for capturing cherished memories that can be enjoyed for years and are a great way to promote your brand. But there's something everyone should know when booking their Digi photo booths — The Do's and Donts. 

You should make the best of your booking, but remember that this isn't your personal photo booth or equipment. So please be sure to remind guests to adhere to the basic photo booth etiquettes.

While there is no hard and fast etiquette governing any sort of Digi photo booth session, following these guidelines will help ensure that everyone enjoys the experience equally.

Recommendations: The Do’s

Respect The Photo Booth Operator

The photo booth staff manages the crowd's excitement while ensuring everyone using the Digi photo booth is safe. Typically, a standard photo booth set-up includes 1-3 staff members, crowd stations, lighting equipment, tables, and signage to indicate traffic flow.  Please respect the assigned staff and be courteous to others using the Digi Booths to have fun. Trust us, there’s enough to go around!

Additionally, the photo booth operator is usually the one who makes sure you get the perfect photo booth image or video, and any distractions or misuses can cause redos or poor quality. Let’s avoid that by listening to the instructions on how the Digi Booth is set up to operate for your event and venue.

Be Courteous To Others 

We know this is a super exciting experience for all ages 2-102. Therefore, we know everyone will be ready to take advantage of all the Digi photo booth fun we offer. However, everyone must get a chance to use the photo booth. 

For one, our team will ensure each guest who wants a chance to experience Digi photo booths gets their chance. Secondly, we will always maintain a professional, positive and friendly atmosphere for everyone at the event, so come on over and strike some poses with us! 

Props-4-Everyone

The props are a compliment to the photo booth experience and what many love to hold up as they pose for their Digi photo booth memories. Please keep in mind, the photo booth company works hard to provide FREE props for each event so that your experience is memorable. 

That’s why it is vital to prevent them from getting damaged, and after capturing your moment, we ask that you help the Digi photo booth team stay organized by putting them back on the prop table. Allow a few seconds for the next session to start. As the final touches are applied to your image or video, our team will sanitize the props. Keep the excitement coming!

Be Stylish, But Also Graceful and Elegant

It makes the experience more fun, memorable and helps create better photos that are also sharable to the public. 

A Digi photo booth can be a great event amenity to capture candid memories with friends and family. However, it's important to remember that photo booth companies are constantly posting past events on social media so others can see the services they provide. 

Although the staff is trained to pick only the approved and most promotable assets for marketing use, other people are likely to run across the images, videos, or gifs you took in a photo booth gallery and can quickly judge you. 

Let’s avoid this from happening by being sure you capture the fun that you don’t regret remembering or posting on social media. 

Recommendations: The Don'ts

Obey the Photo Booth Count and Weight Limit

It is not advisable to squeeze no more than 4 individuals on a Digi 360 photo booth, and 8-12 people in a Selfie or Mirror Photo Booth, because it would be cramped and uncomfortable. Additionally, getting everyone in the frame would be difficult or awkward for some.  

The number of individuals that can engage with a photo booth will vary depending on the Digi booth platform and available venue space. 

Our Digi 360 Booths weight limit max is 1,000lbs, and can capture up to 7’ft height. Our Digi Selfie & Mirror Booths require adequate setup to capture the best memories!

Be Mindful of Open Containers, Drinks, or Liquids  

All cups or liquids are prohibited while using Digi photo booths. Just like a computer, photo booths are primarily built on computer technology and electrical wires that can completely be damaged if wet, moisture, or in direct contact of a spill. 

Please do not take this risk just to prove a point on how cool you are that night. What’s cool is enjoying the moment safely. Therefore, simply find the nearest flat surface to sit the cup, bottle, etc. down and away from devices and equipment. Now, pose how you feel and create the fun you desire!
