Over the past few years, the photo booth backdrop has gone on to become increasingly common at weddings and parties. They are a fun and pleasant way to go on and capture photos of the guests letting a tad bit loose and being goofy – to keep them indulged before or post the meal – if it is getting the wedding pictures taken with the mother-in-law or taking the last lot of food straight out of an oven. The very key to an excellent photo booth is the set of the props and the cool backdrops to bring things altogether – there is nothing worse than the bare old wall.
That said how do you Set Up Your very Own Do-It-Yourself Photo Booth?
Setting up your Photo Booth
From the wedding reception to a baby shower to a birthday party, the photo booth is all the rage. Go on to skip the very expensive rentals and just create the one-of-the-kind booth with the props and the backdrop for the next event or party using the step-by-step instruction as to what is needed and how do you go about it.
The Items Needed
- Point-and-shoot digital camera
- The camera tripod
- The backdrop stand (well, this is optional)
- The backdrop
- The spotlight (again, optional)
- The lighting umbrella (again, optional)
- The tape
- The nails and hammer
- The large clamps
- The remote shutter release
Keep a check on the following
- The Camera Kit
The basic point-and-shoot digital camera goes on to work aptly for a Do-It-Yourself photo booth. One will also require a tripod that is just tall to extend to the eye level and the remote shutter needed release for a camera.
- Lighting
Well, for a professional photo booth, one sure thing must is decent lighting. A photography and spotlight umbrella (available and accessible online or at the camera supply shop) diffuses light and goes on to add a very flattering glow to a friends’ face.
- Backdrop
Well, this is exactly where one gets to show off their creative skills. The printed material backdrop is amongst the most common, however, why limit your options to only store-bought stuff? Make one, which adds life to photos.
- Props
Begin from looking into your closet: that furry scarf, that silky gloves, that fascinator that you wore to races can all combine to become the kitschy props.
So, what are you waiting for? Go on and explore and let your friends and family make the most of the event and parties.
