What are the advantages of a photobooth?
Setting up a photo booth at your wedding, birthday or other event can have several benefits for both you and your guests. Here are some of them:
- A photobooth is uncomplicated, fast and still delivers beautiful photos.
- It complements the photographer and offers a high fun factor for the guests (thanks to the props and photo filters). It is a real highlight at any party.
- A photobooth brings people together at an event (e.g. through a photo game with tasks such as "Find the oldest person at the party and take a photo together").
- You'll get photos of guests who avoid the photographer on principle or have been overlooked by him, because funny accessories turn even photo-shy people into models.
- Even later in the evening, when the mood becomes more exuberant, the Fotichaschte continues to deliver reliable images that become more and more entertaining as the evening progresses.
- If you opt for a photobooth with a print option, your guests will also receive a nice memento of your event, as they can take their photo home with them immediately.
- For companies, a photobooth offers the advantage of spreading their brand by integrating their logo and company colors into the photos.

The special feature of a photobooth is that it offers a variety of props (e.g. sunglasses and signs), backgrounds to add a creative touch to the photos. The images created can often be printed out immediately, adding to the social and fun aspect of this photographic experience.

Spoilt for choice: choosing a suitable photobooth
Before you hire a photobooth for your event, you should make a few considerations in order to select a suitable photobooth to match the theme. Here are some questions you should ask yourself:
- What kind of event are you planning? An elegant wedding reception may require a different photobooth than a casual birthday party. You can therefore easily adapt the props and backgrounds of your photobooth to the theme of your event. If you are planning a wedding, for example, props with the inscription "Team Bride" can spice up the pictures of your guests.
- Which functions would you like? Take a look at the various functions of photobooths . For example, our photobooths from Fotichaschte.ch offers high-resolution tablet cameras and SLR cameras, instant printing options, photo games with tasks and even boomerangs and GIFs. Think about which features best suit your event before booking.
- How high is the resolution of the images? The quality of the printed photos is of course also an important factor. Check whether the photobooth produces high-quality prints and how quickly the printing process takes place. This is particularly important to avoid long waiting times for guests.
- Which design suits your event? The design of the photobooth with matching backgrounds and photo filters also plays a role. Also check whether you can customize and personalize the backgrounds and inscriptions to perfectly integrate the photobooth into the overall concept of your event, for example with your company's own design. A personalized photo layout is included when you book one of our photobooths. Choose from different designs and add a personalized text and date to your pictures. We also offer self-standing photo background walls for a particularly professional look.
- Is the photobooth user-friendly? A user-friendly photobooth is crucial so that your guests have fun and don't have to struggle with complicated instructions at your party. Our high-quality photobooths are equipped with an intuitive touch display, which makes them easy to understand.
- How high is your budget? Set a realistic budget for your professional photobooth. We offer different packages designed for smaller and larger events. Compare the different options and choose the one that best suits your requirements.
- What do customers say? We also recommend that you read customer reviews of the various photobooths to find out how satisfied other customers were with the provider's photobooth and service. This will give you valuable insights into the reliability and quality of the provider.
