Photobooths in the Time of COVID

Having Big Fun While Being Safe

Working as a photo booth vendor in the Jacksonville and north Florida area, I’ve been to many events during COVID. Not as many as last year. Here’s what I’ve seen at the weddings, birthday parties and graduations. No one is wearing masks. That’s the first and last word. No one but me. My last event was for an elementary school – 8th graders mostly. None of them were wearing masks. The chaperones, if they were called that, were not wearing masks. It’s incredible to me. Sad.

In a sane and perfect world, you would wear your mask up until the point where your photo booth session starts. As a photobooth attendant, I am in close contact, closer than the 6 feet of social distance. Even though I am wearing a mask, my instructions are heard and my guests have a great time.

In our photobooth, we do the 4 pose photo strip. That seems like the right number of poses. Three is over too soon. The first one is always a warm-up. The second one is more daring. The third gets more fun and the last one is where they go for it. As of late, for the last year, I have been very selective of what photobooth props I put out. Usually none. Glasses are my favorite even when there’s not a pandemic going on. They are fun and easy to wipe with a disinfectant. Guests like them, too. Sometimes they like them so much they take them home by accident.

After the photobooth stills are done, I invite my guests to text their strips to themselves. They do. Then we do a boomerang video. All the while, no one is wearing a mask. Lots of laughter means lots of particles of spit. Just another reason to wear a maks and glasses of some kind.

Review of Jacksonville Area Photo Booth Vendors – Part 1

This job of being a photo booth owner gives you the fun of going to lots of Jacksonville wedding and party venues. Of course, where there’s a wedding or party, there’s food, a DJ or band and a photo booth. With four years seving up Big Fun from St Mary’s in George to Palatka to Ponte Vedra Beach, we’d like to help you have Big Fun at your event, even if we don’t get to bring it.

Big Fun Foto Booth, located in Ponte Vedra, is a competitively priced full-service photobooth vendor. They always provide an Attendant who engages with your guests to get them to enjoy the booth experience. With a deep collection of props, they often rotate them during the event so you’ll get a good mix of silly pictures.

Booth Options: Big Fun offers three options: green screen, open air with a backdrop, or an enclosure. The LED AIR booth is a great benefit for Big Fun. It can match the colors of your event, or go all white for an elegant look.

Texting happens like this: your guests enter their phone numbers. A text arrives that links them to your very own event web page. There, all the picture strips, GIFs and Boomerangs are stored for one year. On their phones, they can see their photos first, then the boomerangs. As they continue to scroll, they’ll find all the rest of the photos taken that night.

Priced from $429 to $529, Big Fun offers value for your money and a great and lasting memory for you and your guests.
