Introducing the Photobooth!

I hate to dance. I mean really, really hate it. Obviously, it’s because I can’t do it. (Well, that’s not entirely true… I do like to swing dance… but anyway, for the purpose of this post, I hate dancing okay?). Luckily, I bet I’m not the only one though.

That being said, how many people out there get invited to a wedding and then spend the entire reception sitting around? That’s totally me… well, not when I’m shooting the wedding, but when I’m a guest. Honestly, if you don’t like to dance, receptions are b-o-r-i-n-g. Oh, and table shots? Lots of people want them so they can get a photo of everyone attending, but who REALLY wants photos of people huddled around a table filled with dirty dishes?

Enter stage right a new offering from JParker Studio called the Photobooth! Isn’t that one of those things where you and 20 of your friends cram into a wooden box and press a button and a photo is spit out? Well, yeah, but this one’s much cooler than that.

During the downtime of your reception, I set up a backdrop and some lights and we get crazy! In order to get the best possible photos of your guests, I am behind the camera the entire time setting up crazy scenarios and shooting them. Honestly, it is the MOST fun I have had at a reception and everyone has a great time!

Here are some of my favorites from the Photobooth I set up during Camille + John’s wedding a few weeks ago. People were having so much fun that I ended up staying an additional hour to squeeze everyone in!

If you were one of the people at Camille + John’s wedding, please leave a comment about your experience with the Photobooth! Come on, say it was awesome… you know you want to….

New Art Book!

I just got this studio sample album in and I’m extremely excited about it! It’s a hard-bound, flush-mount album with a wrap-around image cover that is perfect for engagement sessions, bridal sessions, and guest books.

Actually, it works great as a guest book because you can write directly on the page!
