How to Customize a Photo Booth Experience for Your Theme or Brand
Photo booths are no longer one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re hosting a wedding, corporate event, birthday bash, or product launch, your photo booth can (and should!) reflect your unique theme, aesthetic, or brand identity.
A well-customized photo booth doesn’t just capture memories — it elevates the guest experience and adds a touch of personality and professionalism to your event. Here’s how you can make it your own:
1. Start With a Custom Photo Overlay
The overlay is what appears on each photo, whether it’s printed or shared digitally. It can include:
- Your logo or monogram
- Event name or hashtag
- Custom colors and fonts that match your theme
- Graphics that reflect your vibe (tropical leaves, disco balls, or even minimalist lines)
Pro Tip: If you’re working with a designer, we can provide the Adobe Illustrator template for your overlay. Or you can collaborate with our in-house designer to create something tailor-made.
2. Choose a Themed Backdrop
Your backdrop sets the scene. From classic shimmer walls and greenery to custom step-and-repeat banners with your brand logo — the options are endless.
We also work with decorators and can coordinate to match your backdrop with your event decor. Have a color palette in mind? Let us know and we’ll help bring it to life.
3. Incorporate Props That Match Your Theme
Props are where the fun begins! Swap out the random sunglasses and feather boas for curated props that match your vision:
- A wedding? Think floral crowns, champagne glasses, and “Mr. & Mrs.” signs.
- Corporate event? Branded signs, company merch, and sleek accessories.
- 90s party? Bring on the neon shades and cassette tapes!
Need something custom? We can work with you to create branded or themed props.
4. Add a Branded Touch to the Digital Experience
Going digital? Customize the touch screen interface and sharing options to reflect your brand. This includes:
- A welcome screen with your logo or event name
- Branded email or text message templates for photo sharing
- Customized gallery pages for guests to download their photos
5. Upgrade with Special Features
Want to take it up a notch? Consider adding:
- GIFs or Boomerangs with branded overlays
- Green screen backgrounds that transport guests anywhere
- AI photo booth experiences that turn your guests into futuristic avatars (yes, seriously!)
- Custom print sizes like 4×6 or 5×7 for that premium feel
6. Make It an Immersive Part of Your Decor
Our photo booths can blend in or stand out — it’s up to you. Want it to feel like part of the event design? Let us know your vision and we’ll work with your planner or decorator to align placement, lighting, and styling.
Final Thoughts
Your photo booth should be more than just a corner with a camera. With a little customization, it becomes a memorable, shareable experience that your guests will talk about long after the event.
