Last Saturday was my girlfriend Clare’s 30th birthday. We like a bit of fancy dress action once in a while (don’t read into that too much), so she organised a joint party with our pal Kinsey with an ambiguous ‘TV/Movie/Superhero/whatever-you-fancy’ theme.
Anyhoos – I’ve a photobooth I set up for clients at weddings. It’s basically a velvet curtain & a studio flash, generally manned by Clare at my weddings. Check it being used by me at a wedding here.
Essentially, the booth is a perfect means to get high quality, studio-lit images of your pals being serious and silly. So like at my Gangster & Moll’s themed 30th party back in January (blog post here) we thought we’d set it up at Clare’s bash too!
Here she is! Princess Leia!
And birthday boy Kinsey, as He-Man
That is I, as Bobba Fett – Star Wars’ coolest bounty hunter!

And another of my outfit, cos I LOVES IT!
If I weren’t selling it on eBay I’d wear this to process my wedding photography in.
But enough about me…
Remember, if you’d like a photobooth at your wedding, don’t hesitate to ask me about it.
