The Sophisticated Experience Photo Booth Package is actually two photo booth experiences in one as it includes both The EGO handheld roaming photo booth and a stationary photo booth experience for candid photos and amazing, fun posed photos.
Although this experience is an excellent option for many events, it is our most popular wedding photo booth experience and one of the main reasons why is the memory album couples receive at the end of the night featuring printed copies of the custom photo strip from every photo booth session along with heartfelt, handwritten notes from family and friends.
Couples and corporate clients booking this package for their holiday parties, often tell us how much fun they have going through the album, looking at the pictures and reading the notes even months after their celebration.
