How Wedding Photo Booths are Changing

In 2000, the wedding photo booth was a rarity. The industry started to grow with digital cameras, and by the time digital cameras truly became the first choice for professionals, photo booths had become a massively growing trend. While you might have been intrigued to see one in 2010, today it's the first question on many's guests minds.

““Where is the booth? I want to make sure to get my photos while my makeup is still flawless!”

”Guys, let’s get into the booth before there’s a line!””

The stats support this idea of having a booth being a necessity. By 2016, there were more Google searches for wedding photo booth than for wedding DJ. And it makes a ton of sense. Things don't grow like that without reason--people just absolutely love taking pictures.

In that time of growth, most booths have really stuck to one way of doing things: take a few pictures, print them out, maybe share them on social media using clunky software, and you're done.

But it doesn't have to be that way! Photo booths are a limitless source of potential for your event, especially if you need a wedding photobooth.

Let's start by talking a little bit about the name... MDRN supplies a photo booth that takes studio quality portraits. We've also got a photo booth that takes boomerangs you can instantly share to Instagram. We've also got a photo booth with a video camera that surrounds you in 360 degrees and takes some of the most interesting captures you've ever seen. Your options are already past just taking photos.

For many, though, a photo is the way to go. It's even true for Justin Bieber, who opted for a photo only booth at his recent wedding. His photos might look a little different than you're familiar with, though. No props, no backdrop, and no color. This particular style is called a glam booth.

While we know what a trendsetter Justin can be, he's a little bit behind the curve on this one. MDRN has been offering a glam booth for years with our Ottawa and Toronto locations. We'd love to have one at your event too! Now that we service all of Canada, I hope we get to see you soon.

You might be asking what's involved in requesting a glam booth, and it's just as easy as clicking here for our contact form and letting us know when your event is and that you'd like one. We'll handle all of the heavy lifting at your direction, and ensure that you've checked at least one more thing off the wedding to-do list. And remember, with MDRN, you're not limited to just photos, either. Many weddings are adding multiple different styles to ensure that guests are blown away by their experience celebrating with you.
