Hiring a photo booth for a corporate event is a relatively new idea that is quickly gaining traction. What was once a fun curiosity at birthday parties or weddings is making more of a presence in conventions, festivals, and professional conferences. On the surface, some hosts view the photo booth as a suitable replacement for a photographer who may not have as much control or features to offer. Why would a company hire a photo booth beyond that? What exactly are the benefits a photo booth provides at your event?
Branding
When you hire a photo booth, some companies – like ours – can work with your business to implement your branding onto the pictures. Your brand logo or slogan can be a part of the background, put in as a digital watermark, or through a filter or template. Some large companies have already used their branding within photo booths to great effect, receiving tens of thousands of likes on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram posts.
Sharing
When a photographer takes pictures at your corporate event, you usually have to wait for the photos in the mail that may take several days or weeks. If you’re someone who wants the photos cleaned up with photo editing software, then this may be a better option. However, many corporate clients and the people who get their pictures taken want to see their photos as soon as possible. Even when it’s only two days after the event, the energy of those pictures may get lost and not as many people will share their photos. A photo booth provides an opportunity for guests to receive their photos right after taking them, and social media makes it easy for them to share and talk about your event online.
Participation
Photo booths encourage guests to take the pictures themselves. The act of them walking up and participating rather than a photographer or event runner telling them to do so makes a powerful difference. The features of a photo booth like props and photo editing software give an extra level of fun not present for corporate events in the past. When guests line up to take pictures at your booth, your brand makes more of an impact.
