Photo booth's transformation

The photo booth had its original look (80's and 90's) as a booth with curtains where individual/s can go inside and have his/her picture taken. Minutes later, the machine will dispense the photo. These photo booths, often seen beside schools or commercial establishments, provided people access to fast and instant service when they need ID pictures. This abated the need for them to go to a photo studio. That was history. The 21st century saw technology running at a very fast pace. This virtually drove the classic photo booth to extinction (at least in the Philippines). Despite the invasion of our civilization by digital cameras (of every size, shape, color, and form), a comeback occurred. Built from a network of a camera-printer-PC-etc. minus the booth and curtains, a new photo booth (or kiosk - more appropriately) was born. This time it is programmed to be mobile and the output for souvenirs. It is seen in almost every event possible. Try to attend a wedding nowadays, chances are you will find yourself posing in one of those machines. The photo booth changed the landscape of the event industry. It cemented itself as an integral part of many occasions whether weddings, debuts, kiddie parties, school or corporate events, baptisms, reunions, trade shows, product launching, sports activities, you name it. When we started our photo booth business 3 years back (in Manila, Philippines), we were not inclined about being with the same level with the existing ones. Partyshots Photobooth wanted to be in a different standard. That is, beginning with the most basic, the photo booth machine itself. We started by modifying and refurbishing old toy dispensers found in the market. With all the hardware hidden inside, our photo booth (that time) already looked more unique and presentable than our competitors. Constant innovations led us to fabricating our own units which are well-designed, slim, light-weight, durable, transportable, come in different colors, and can be easily assembled or disassembled. This is a far cry from the "Tripod" type where the hardware are exposed, the "Boxy" type made of ply board (wood cabinet look) or the "Ref" type (the name speaks for itself). During conceptualization and development of our units, we had in mind the preservation of the neatness and class of the events where we set-up our machines. This is important.
