Gold Fringe Photobooth Project!

Thao and Andrew’s wedding was this past weekend and Rebecca and I finally got to see our fringe photobooth in action! Everyone seemed to have a great time and I’m pleased with how the photos came out.

As some of you may know, event spaces have lots of rules and regulations, but we came prepared with 3m hooks for hanging the backdrop. When the event manager came by eyeballing us about tacks, we quickly waved our 3m hooks in her face and let her know it was under control. Of course we were not allowed to remove the obtrusive curtain from behind the backdrop so from a distance it’s not so cute, but in the end the photos turned out great.

Rebecca went to town at the Halloween store picking up some great props. The other paper masks we got from the amazing Jordan Ferney over at Oh Happy Day.

I made lots of little signs with instructions, such as Pick A Prop, Write a Message for the Newlyweds, and little cards with information on where to find the photos. The camera was covered with a sign saying “the camera is all set, please use the remote shutter release” to deter people from adjusting any settings. We were also lucky enough to have the father of the bride’s camera, and now I want one for my very own.
