With Mayday just behind us it seems like a good idea to think about things that bring workmates together – and a Photo Booth is one of them.

Shared experiences are always a great way to bond folk together and a shared experience where you take something away with you makes the memory of that experience last a little bit longer. Photo Booths provide that. With strips to take away and a USB stick of all the images captured in the booth on hand after the event there’s plenty of memories to go around.

And the props box is a great leveler. Whether you are a CEO or mail room clerk, silly glasses and a hat are silly glasses and a hat. Photo Booths put everyone on the same level fun playing field. And there’s nothing like a bit of equality to bring the workers together.

So enough of the propaganda – whether your next party is a Communist Party, People’s Liberation Party, Christmas Party or End of Project Party we’ve got the perfect thing to unite the workers!

It has been all go with exciting expos for the Auckland crew over the past few weeks – we have been lucky enough to attend three awesome expos and may have seen you at one of them!

It was so great to see everyone at these awesome events, and we look forward to seeing you all again very soon!

One of the best things about including props in your booth package is how much everybody gets into dressing up. Even the most shy get hooked on finding the best mix and match and striking the funniest pose. From the very young to the very old, no one is immune to the power of the prop. Imagine your grandparents decked out in fake beards, silly hats and glasses.. Photo Booth Fun can make that happen!

Mitch and Abbey’s wedding in Ashburton last month was a prime example of the hilarity of props in action. I love seeing the way people combine props to make new hilarious looks. Everyone brings a bit of their own creativity to their look and the result is always brilliant!

Guaranteed hilarity. Guaranteed memorable fun for you and your guests.

Cheers!

After a whirlwind couple of months it was great to get into the Porirua markets last weekend.

Not that there was any less mayhem and energy – just a different type. We parked our trusty photo booth amidst the food stalls and got to be part of one of Wellington’s best weekly doses of fun, colour and great food, produce and other amazing stuff.

As it always does, it takes some people a while to click to the fact that having something as awesome as a photo booth free for them to use is possible. But once we got the message out there was a queue of families, waiting for a photo and even one guy that we had to break the sad news to that the background was the wrong colour for a legitimate passport photo!

Thanks for having us Porirua Saturday Markets! If you haven’t got along on a Saturday morning you’re missing out on great food and vegies, awesome Pasifika food and some of the best fudge you’ll find!

We might even come back for another time round later in the year.

This month we had the privilege of bringing our photo booth along to support the Crusaders’ Evening of Courage with the Child Cancer Foundation here in Christchurch.

With my favourites, George, Kieran and Richie all taking turns having their pics taken with the kids (and some adoring grown-ups) , I had a bit of an inner struggle to not push in and get a few shots with them myself! But there was no way I was  taking a turn from those lovely kids and their families.

It was such an amazing night and what legends the Crusaders were – Making so many people’s nights by jumping in and getting their pose on in the booth. But not everyone wanted one of the boys in their shot, the Crusaders dance troupe were just as popular and a definite favourite for one special girl.

Good on you guys!

What a busy month its been!  Our booths have certainly been getting a work out as we have attended some fantastic events!  We have attended lots and lots of stunning weddings and, as always, we get so much delight in seeing couples in love on their special day (and of course watching their guests have a blast in the booth!).

The past month has also seen us spend a few days at Auckland Cup week, the NZ Robotics Nationals, AUT open days and this week we are at Polyfest!  Its certainly been all go!

Amongst that we were able to attend one particularly special wedding. It was that of Vivian Fittall, who married Jack Waller in their fairytale wedding.  Vivian and Jack had a two-year relationship and a healthy baby girl but their happiness was shattered with news that cancer had spread to Vivian’s bowel, liver and lungs.  Marrying her soulmate in the time she had left meant everything to Vivian, and through social media and campaigning, an entire community pulled together to make her dream come true.  It was a truly magical day and we were so honoured to be a part of it.
