Photo Booths are the rage at all kinds of gatherings – large parties and small parties alike. People love to take silly photos. The sillier the better – and the more photo opportunities there are, the bigger the laughs.
It really doesn’t matter what the age. I have waited in line for my turn in the photo booth with friends of all ages. Friends as young as three and up to 70+ have all enjoyed making goofy faces at the camera lens right alongside me as the numbers count down. After the quick flash, we all shift in our spots, grab a new prop, and make yet another ridiculous face. The laughter just rolls.
I have been to parties where my friends have set up beautiful booths made from PVC pipe and draped in elegant fabric.
Me – I hang up a back drop against a flat surface or hang it between two posts and call it done. There are all kinds of ways to set up super easy backdrops. My favorite is to tape up the plastic table cloths from the dollar store. The tablecloths are bright, colorful, and cheap. Gotta like that. Plus they come in many different colors.
A second way is to hang twisted streamers. Again you just simply tape them up, and streamers, like the table cloths, come in many, many colors. You can go vibrant or mellow. It is easy and cheap to complement the colors of your party with streamers.
For Halloween it is fun to hang spider webbing, black bats, set up a few pumpkins and call it ready.
Once you have a simple and easy backdrop, you need a way to take photo booth style photos…
No problem!
Evite has an app for that!
Evite has come out with a new Photo Booth App for iPad, and I have been having a lot of fun playing with it! Evite Photo Booth lets you bring the fun of a Photo Booth to any party or gathering on an iPad.
There are so many different designs, borders, and filters to customize the look and feel of the photo booth. There are designs for birthday parties, holidays, showers, weddings, and pretty much any event that you would want. The designs are super easy to customize so you can complement any theme or gathering.
There are 14 different filters to choose from and the app allows you to customize your own caption to be printed right onto the photo (depending on the chosen layout).
I love the visual countdown – this gave us time to move around and figure out a new fun pose for the next snap. You can also set the timer to give you more or less time, depending on how fast you want the pictures to be snapping.
You can create photos in a variety of layouts – everything from a single pose to a printed copy of three strips of four poses. There are 11 different layouts to choose from. The photos can be saved in the app and they can also be shared via email, Facebook, Twitter, or printed via AirPrint. This makes it easy to share!
The Evite Photo Booth App for iPad is perfect for weddings, birthdays, family reunion, school class room parties, selfies and any other party you might have. As a teacher, I love the idea of using this for our Big Buddy – Little Buddy photos. My sixth graders spend the year buddied up with a third grader. We get together twice a month for fun and academic activities. At the end of the year, I set up a photo shoot complete with many items pulled from my costume box. The kids dress up and get goofy while I snap away! This year – I will be using Evite’s Photo Booth to make it even more memorable. They will have a fun time posing for four photos instead of just one. More fun means more laughter! All of the giggles will be captured with my Evite Photo Booth!
One of the best aspects of Evite’s Photo Booth App is that it is portable – after all, it is sitting on the iPad. We had a fun time snapping photos in San Francisco with the cousins, and then again in Sacramento at a River Cats baseball game.
Want to know a secret? The equipment in that beautiful photo booth pictured above quit working just shortly after the party began. Fortunately, that didn’t hamper our fun. We just grabbed the props and took photos with our phones in front of the hanging gingham fabric.
But…had we had the Evite Photo Booth App at that party? We would have all walked away with our own photo booth style strips of pictures.
Don’t miss out on the fun! Check out Evite’s Photo Booth App for iPad today. The holidays are coming and the fun is just getting started.
What event or gathering would you like to use Evite’s Photo Booth for?
We love that photo booth set up – thanks for sharing!
I love this idea for a Christmas party. Making the booth festive and inside would also be a great idea.
This would be such a cute idea for a party! Whether you are young or old, you love a great photo booth.
This is such a great idea and so much fun for any party or gathering. I like the idea of being able to make one of your own since they can be expensive to rent.
They are expensive to rent! I love that the Evite Photo Booth makes having a photo booth so affordable for everyone! Fun for all :))))
This looks like it was a lot of fun! I hate having to spend a lot of money on something fun like this!
It is so easy to make a backdrop with a couple of items from the dollar store! Then with the Evite Photo Booth – you can even send the photos to people – it is not necessary to print. So this is such an affordable way to have a photo booth!
This is a cute idea!! I’ve been to a wedding that had one that was similarly set up like this!
Yes, they are so much fun! And Evite Photo Booth makes it so easy to have a photo booth anywhere!
What a great idea and so portable. These are so very popular right now.
We loved that we could take our Evite Photo Booth on the road 🙂
How fun is that?! I just love it when people have photo booths at parties! My sister had one at her wedding!
They are a lot of fun! And everyone goes home with a fun memento.
What a fun photo booth!! I can’t remember the last time I was in one, I may have to make one for our next get together.
Yes, the Evite photo Booth would be perfect for your next get-together!
Oh, wow! This is such an amazing idea and just perfect for fall parties that are around the corner. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely! Just think of the great photo booth style pic os the kiddos in their Halloween costumes.
How fun! I’ve always wanted to set up something like this for parties, but thought it would be to complicated. What a great app!
This is so easy! We had so much fun using the Evite photo Booth!
What a cute idea. I just love photo booths. My niece’s birthday is coming up. A photo booth will be a perfect addition to her party.
Happy birthday to your niece! Yes, the Evite photo Booth would be perfect for the party.
A party is never complete without a photobooth to capture all the fun! I think this is an amazing idea and I am loving that app as well. It’s definitely going to make setting up a DIY photobooth easier.
Evite Photo Booth app really makes it easy! Have fun!
I bet my son and his band friends would love this. I will have to try it out at next rehearsal for fun.
That sounds fun! My son used to play in a band – I miss the music and the kids all hanging out at the house.
I love photo booths! They are so popular now, especially for weddings! This is a great way to make your own 🙂
Totally! thanks for stopping by.
Love this idea. As a mommy of 4 yr old twins I’m always looking for easy ways to entertain them. Think I’ll try this for Halloween.
This would entertain them for sure – and provide you with some really fun and cute photos!
I’m so excited about the photo booth rage. We have had such fun with them at weddings and I’m so happy to see them expand to just about any occasion. I had no idea eVite had this app. I can’t wait to check it out!!!!
The Evite Photo Booth app would be fun at one of your dinner club gatherings!
I am so going to do this for our annual halloween party! It will be so much fun to see everyone in their costumes in the booth!
This is perfect for Halloween!
I love this!!! We had a photo booth at my son’s first birthday, but it was nowhere near this amazing!! I would love to add this to one of our parties 🙂
The Evite Photo Booth app is sooo easy! It is perfect for any gathering!
Weddings!! How fun and very inexpensive! This would be so much fun too and keep people busy for hours!
It is an easy crowd pleaser for sure!
What a great app! I am really beginning to think there is an app for everything. I think photo booths are a lot of fun and really enjoy the opportunity to be silly!
Lol! I know how you feel. Technology is fast moving.
Wow, what an awesome app! I could see my family using this at all of our get togethers.
We shared a lot of laughs using it!
Tons of fun!! Thanks Stacey. I hadn’t heard of this app.
It is loads of fun and so easy!
