Photo Booths have come a LONG way, thanks to modern technology. They have so many cool functions and options you are sure to have some amazing photo booth fun! It’s hard to imagine the wedding industry without today’s chic and modern photo booths.

The photo booth has evolved throughout the years. It’s origins date back to 1889, where it made its debut at the World’s Fair in Paris. The fair attendees could get their photo taken and five minutes later received their image printed on a thin sheet of metal.

Fast forward to 1925, when Anatol Josepho debuted his enclosed (curtained) booth in New York City. For 25 cents you could have your photo taken and 10 minutes later walk away with an 8 photo print out.

In the following years the photo booth saw few changes. It isn’t until the 2000’s that the photo booth is revolutionized.

In the 2000’s they are more portable, sleeker and modern looking. There are now loads and loads of backdrop options: fabric, velvet, sequin, mermaid, wood, floral walls, etc. the options are endless. The addition of props ups the fun factor. And yet again, there are an endless number of options to suit anyones tastes: modern, vintage, minimalistic, fun, colorful, paper etc.

Today you find photo booths EVERYWHERE: weddings, quinceaneras, parties, galas, charities, and corporate events. It’s not a party unless you have a photo booth!
