1. Why did you start up Photobooth Fantastic?

I enjoy encouraging people to smile and have fun.  With my backgrounds in photography and engineering this seemed like a fun way to bring all of these elements together.

2. What is the most rewarding experience about providing your services?

The best part is seeing and hearing the fun that people have getting ready to take their pictures, as well as their excitement when they receive them.  When people enter the booth, the added privacy from the rest of the party really brings out a wonderful naturalness.  We have done several weddings where some of the best photos of the bride and groom’s parents came from our booths.

3. Why should someone consider hiring PhotoBoothFantastic?

We offer a very personal and highly customized service.  The borders that we design for the photos carry through the theme of your event.  We can also provide DVD slideshows of the highlights, or host your photos on our website after your event.  Hosts have found that the full size photos make terrific thank you cards.  We will work with you to add a very memorable highlight to your unforgettable day.
