Welcome to the teenage years!

Out of all the age ranges we’ve worked with- from 8 to 80- I think 13 is one of our favorites. They’re just beginning to become teenagers but still have that adolescent charm- and what a milestone turning 13 is! Happy happy birthday to Ali, Mary Claire, Lauren, Kylee, & Ashtyn who just had a super fun party last weekend; and to their awesome mom’s, who paid us to play dress up with them and all their super fun friends in a photo booth! We had the best time- especially watching the boy-girl “wobble” competition on the dance floor. You guys rock!

The Boys and Girls 16’s Southern Closed is an exciting regional tennis tournament for junior players ages 14-16, and this year, the Arkansas Junior Tennis Foundation was granted the honor of hosting it here in Little Rock! Talented teens from across 9 states participated in the event, cleverly titled The Southern Sixteens in the Rock, from June 14th – June 21st, at Burns Park Tennis Center and Rebsamen Tennis Center.  However, the real fun was at the Players Party last Sunday, and Photobooth Etc. was pumped to be in on the action!

The teens were an absolute blast to work with and we thank Brent, Carolyn & Chip for booking us for the event! We learned a lot of new terms (lemme take a snappop!) and are thinking about taking up tennis in our spare time 😉

Favorite Days in a Photo Booth

Favorite Days in a Photo Booth

Events

The past few weeks have been filled with a variety of our favorite days: a beautiful wedding, a sweet 16, and a twin 30th birthday party!!!

The pleasure of getting to attend these kinds of celebrations is the exact reason we started this business; it’s hard to call it “work” when we get to share in so many memorable occasions.

From the glowing bride to the sparkling birthday queens, these diva’s know how to throw a good party. And as the saying goes, a picture is (truly) worth a thousands words. Here are a few of our client’s favorite days, forever captured by the smiles of their guests.

To Emily & Dash:

True love stories never have endings.

Southern Wedding Guests in a Photo Booth

Southern Wedding Guests in a Photo Booth

Events

Memorial day weekend we took the party booth down south to the tiny little town of Wilmont, Arkansas for the stunning wedding of Ashley Young and Aaron Rutledge. Talk about southern charm!!! The location was a 1900’s mansion decked out in the most beautiful Moroccan decor. The band (Tragikly White) was super fun, the food to-die-for, and the guests a total party! We had a blast and were tickled pink to be a part of this fairy-tale evening. Congrats to the Rutledge’s- we wish you guys a lifetime of happiness!

Last night was our first crawfish boil and we had a blast! The smart folks at Price Waterhouse Coopers booked us for their annual customer/employee appreciation event at Maumelle Park and they don’t skimp on a party. There were plenty of delicious mudbugs, catfish, beer, bouncy houses and for the first time ever, a photo booth! Everyone loved getting their picture made and leaving with a fun photo strip memento of the tasty occasion. And since we’re no stranger to crawfish boils ourselves, we had plenty of antennae & eye stalking hats & props to match the theme of the night. (We were also pretty excited to have a real live hedgehog pose in our booth as well!)

Heart Healthy Women in a Photo Booth

Heart Healthy Women in a Photo Booth

Events Inspiration

We were beyond honored to participate in the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women luncheon, a national event held in cities across the country to help raise awareness of heart disease as the number one killer of women. Being women ourselves, this cause is especially important to us. While the event was beautifully decorated and fabulously fun, it’s purpose is quite serious. These passionate people at the AHA are empowering women to take charge of their heart health by helping identify risk factors and encouraging healthier lifestyle choices. There were many survivors at the event- and even in our booth- and it really put things into perspective for us… Let’s change the stats girls- 1 in 3 is way too high!!!

Events

Photobooth Etc is proud to announce it’s official inclusion into the club of Arkansas businesses: we joined The Little Rock Chamber! We are super excited about the exposure and connections the Chamber provides it’s members, and the ribbon cutting is sure to be a big hit.

Being a chamber member also gets us some extra bookings at some of the hippest events in town. Like last night’s Taste of the Rock at The River Market.

Celebrating it’s 10th year, The Chamber’s TASTE OF THE ROCK, is a food and beverage showcase where guests can sample cuisine from Chamber member restaurants and caterers. And this year, also get their picture made and a great take home from the party!

We created several really cute “western” theme props and had a blast at the event. Here are some cute pics from last night…

Mainstream Technologies Proves Photo Booth Fun at Corporate Event

Mainstream Technologies Proves Photo Booth Fun at Corporate Event

Events

Mainstream Technologies is a highly respected custom software and hosting company in Little Rock with a focus on client satisfaction and superior customer service. They hold several customer apprecition events and last night we were excited to be included. Mainstream realized that while mousepads and koozies are great, there’s nothing better than a photo strip with the Maintsream logo on it to offer as a branded promotional take away. Not only did their customers love dressing up and smiling for the camera (after just a little coaxing by the best sales rep in world, Phil Bibbs) this kind of party favor is on for the fridge, not the cluttered desk drawer.
No wonder every single one of their employees said Mainstream was the best job they’ve ever had: the owners know how to celebrate hard work with some good old fashioned fun! We both left the event kinda wanting a job there.. 🙂 (kidding Inuvo and Dillards!)

Photobooth Etc Goes Science & High-Tech at UCA

Photobooth Etc Goes Science & High-Tech at UCA

Events

Saturday was very busy but also a bit nostalgic for us- having two events at our old alma mater UCA. First stop was to entertain the seriously entrepreneurial techies at BarCamp for their annual creative “un-conference” at the College of Business Building. We were pretty excited to be there with a lot of friends and similar-minded people who enjoy learning from each other. And we even made the local paper!

After a successful lunch there we headed across campus to the Lewis Science Center to play dress up with the 8th grade “Girls of Promise” sponsored by the Women’s Foundation of Central Arkansas. Girls of Promise program is a one-day conference designed to introduce eighth-grade girls to careers in economics, science, technology, engineering, and math. I spoke at the event last year (on mobile apps- what else?) and was thrilled to offer something a little more fun this time around. Much like the Cutter Morning Star Prom we did last weekend, these girls were really into the photo booth. Growing up in the generation of selfies, I would expect nothing less. Oh, and I finally found out what the “L” shape around the eye means- “super fierce”…

Both of these events are near and dear to our hearts and we were thrilled to be invited. Here, here to creative, scientific, technology minded people, that love to be silly in a photo booth!

Getting our prom on!

Getting our prom on!

Events

Saturday night was a major milestone for Photobooth Etc- our first prom! Doesn’t everyone remember their first? The first “adult” social event; the first time taking the car out after dark or limo ride; the first real dress-up affair; and many other firsts we can think of…

For us, it was also our first time using this thing:

DSC_0148

 

and man is it nice! What normally would have taken us at least 4-5 trips into the lobby and up the elevator, our brand new Rock and Roller multi-cart is a lifesaver!

And as for the prom, well it was pretty great too. Cutter Morning Star is a small school in Hot Springs, AR with less than 100 junior and senior students. But the event didn’t seem small to us and we were busy the entire two hours. They had an awesome room at the top of the Clarion Hotel with a spectacular view of Lake Hamilton. Their theme was also very cute: “Prom Confidential,” and we were happy with how the photo strips turned out with their logo. The teens were very polite and dressed to the nines- and boy can some of them dance!

DSC_0151

I was impressed and just a little jealous I couldn’t join in on the fun! 🙂

They also took full advantage of our prop table which was slightly hard to keep tidy:

Even the teachers joined in on the dress up fun!

And these kids knew how to work the photo booth camera… The faces we captured were simply priceless!

I finally know the meaning of the duck face- I can’t wait to practice it!

But enough of the boring snapshots, let’s take a look at some of these glamours teens and their lovely props, shall we? (Not so confidential now are we CMS? 🙂 )

What is this finger around the eye move? I love this…

The tongue out pose is also a favorite of teens these days I noticed… I believe this one is called the “frog face”. How very Miley of them…

The invention of the teenager was a mistake. Once you identify a period of life in which people get to stay out late but don’t have to pay taxes – naturally, no one wants to live any other way. ~Judith Martin

In all seriousness though, these teens were awesome and had a blast using the booth. And I can for sure say provided some of the most colorful shots we’ve taken so far. Thanks, CMS, for letting two old gals live vicariously through you and your wonderful prom night!
