No matter what age the graduation ceremony takes place: The day is something very special for everyone involved. Usually, family and friends come together to celebrate the person extensively. With typical traditions and rituals, the birthday child is accompanied into the new phase of life – a touching moment of great importance.

To ensure that the unforgettable day is captured as a memory forever, enough photos should be taken. A photo booth is the ideal way to do this in a creative and authentic way. Guests can use it to create unique snapshots, have a lot of fun and it is not uncommon for the photo box to become the highlight of every youth celebration.

To make the celebration something special, the organizers and guests usually go all out: In addition to plenty of food and exciting games, the focus is on the decoration and outfits. Glittering dresses, elegant suits and stunning make-up shine with smiling faces. A photo booth effortlessly manages to perfectly stage the elegance and uniqueness of the celebration. The guests pose in front of a suitable background and feel like the stars of the evening in front of the camera. This gives the event an exclusive atmosphere and gives the guests the feeling of being something very special – all that’s missing is the red carpet!

But a photo booth is not only ideal for entertaining at birthday parties like Sweet 16: The snapshots taken are also the perfect memories of the beautiful celebration. Framed and hung up at home or posted on social media, the pictures are a reminder of the glamorous event for a long time to come.

To make the 18th birthday a real hit, fun and entertainment must not be missing. A photo booth is a great hit with guests of all ages: from younger siblings to parents and grandparents – as a rule, guests of all generations dare to get in front of the lens.

When posing for the photos, a relaxed atmosphere is created and there is a lot of laughter. The funny moments created in this way bring lightness and spontaneity to the youth celebration – the photo box skilfully captures these unforgettable moments on authentic pictures.

Your guests will also love to get active themselves. This is one of the reasons why photo booths at quinceañeras and 18th birthday parties are a popular activity and often the crowning highlight of the celebration.

Photo booth props allow your guests to express themselves creatively. To ensure that the accessories perfectly complement the photo box at the youth party, they should be coordinated with the party theme. Here you will find inspiration for your event:

• Crowns go particularly well with a quinceañera, but of course also with all other birthday parties.
• Colourful accessories such as colourful sunglasses, feather boas and party hats put guests in a party mood.
• Typical photo booth props, e.g. wigs, moustaches and kissing lips, look really funny in photos.
• Banners with inscriptions such as “Sweet 16”, “Feliz 15” or “Endlich 18” reinforce the birthday motto and look great in the pictures.
• Signs with unique messages are the classic for photo booths. Choose slogans that match the theme, e.g. “Mazel Tov” for the photo booth at a Bar Mitzvah or “Cheers to 18 Years” for an 18th birthday.

Your guests will love putting on toy crowns, holding funny signs up to the camera and making silly faces along the way. In this way, the accessories increase the motivation to get creative and put funny ideas into practice.

And the pictures also benefit from humorous props: the snapshots become unique works of art that are original and entertaining.

Depending on the model, your guests can print out the pictures of the birthday party on site: A photo box with direct printing comes with a printer that prints the snapshots on photo paper immediately after taking them. The photos are ideal as a small gift that your guests can take home as a souvenir. They capture the special moments of the celebration for eternity and are a great souvenir of the unique day.

You can stick your own instant prints in your photo album after the party or hang them framed on the wall. Furthermore, the printouts are great as gifts for friends and family. To do this, stick the photo in a thank you card or simply write a personal message on the back of the picture with a waterproof marker. You can use it to thank your guests for coming or send a greeting from the celebration to relatives who couldn’t be at the celebration.

Some photo booths, such as our Digital package, allow photos to be transferred directly to your smartphone. To do this, your guests simply scan the QR code and the snapshots appear on their mobile phones.

Whether it’s a Sweet 16th or 18th birthday, this feature is particularly popular with guests of the younger generation. This is because the digital images can be shared directly online – preferably on Facebook and Instagram, which are still among the most popular social media platforms in Switzerland. In this way, other users can practically be there live at the celebration and participate in the great atmosphere.

A photo booth thus offers an innovative way to digitally capture the memories of the 18th birthday. With Fotichaschte.ch, you also get access to an online gallery after the party – so you can download the pictures afterwards and upload them to a post on Instagram, for example.
