When considering renting
a Photo Booth for your event, there’s more to think about than meets the
eye….Following are some questions that you should ask about renting a photo
booth:
Q: Does your booth use an
Inkjet printer, or a professional Dye Sublimation printer?
A: The reason to know the
difference is simple…professional photo printers will print on photo paper,
which won’t smudge, and will last forever. Check the difference. Also,
professional printers will print in less than 15 seconds, and will print 2
prints in that timeframe. Why is this important? You’re paying for
unlimited photos for your event, the quicker they print, the more guests
that can go through the booth, the better value for your dollar. Most
inkjets can take as long as 45 sec. to 1 minute to print 1 copy.
Q: What does your photo
booth look like?
A: This is a very
important question, as there are some…interesting…looking photo booths
available. The goal is to have your photo booth at your event, and have it
blend into the décor, not stand out like a sore thumb. Does the rental
company offer a choice of curtain colors? If not, they should.
Q: Is your photo booth
company “local”?
A:
There are many companies available that are nowhere near where your event is
going to be held. Why is this important? There could be added costs for
travel, delivery, etc…As well, if someone is traveling a longer distance for
your event, there is a bigger chance that something could happen to prevent
them from being on time, and believe me, you do not want photo booth
equipment being set up as your event is already up and running.
