Photobooth
The Crossland High School class of 1969 class reunion was held over 3 days and Brett Turner Photography was there to cover it. The reunion started with a mixer on Friday night then a breakfast and tour of the school on Saturday morning. Saturday night was dinner and dancing followed by Sunday morning farewell breakfast At the reunion dinner Saturday night we debuted the photobooth. While I was photographing in the ballroom the photobooth was open for people to walk in and take photos of themselves and friends.
The photobooth is a fully automated camera, lights, and printer setup. It works like this: people enter, they can see themselves on the screen in front of them, they click the mouse, the camera takes 3 photos which can be the same or different poses then the system automatically prints a 5x7 comp with six photos. The six photos are so that the print can be cut into two strips to share.
The photobooth was a hit all night long. There was always a line to get in but with the printer outputting a print every 12 seconds there was no waiting or delays.
We have been working on the photobooth for a while. While the idea is simple enough I wanted to implement the photobooth in an elegant and automated way. I cant say how pleased I am with the way the photobooth worked or with the reception.
The galleries from the reunion can be seen here:
