We worked with Rob at Shutterbox Photo Booth from the day we booked their services to the day of our wedding. He responded quickly to every question we had, he personally met us and gave us samples of the photo strips, and he helped make sure we got the artwork we wanted on each strip. Shutterbox is extremely reasonable in price and worth every penny, the attendant we had the night of the wedding was very professional and welcoming and we got everything we asked for. Everyone at our wedding got in the photo booth not only once but kept coming back for more. There were unlimited photos making it the perfect wedding favor! Everyone LOVED it and still to this day are talking about it. And... we could fit up to 8 people at once, you should see some of the shots we got, priceless!! I highly recommend Shutterbox Photo Booth for ANY event!
The photobooth was amazing! We had so much fun taking pictures in there, and the best part is getting instant pics!!! Then you get doubles too so one copy goes home with your guest as a favor and the other copy goes in a book which is in place of the boring regular sign-in book. My guests were so impressed and had so much fun doing this everyone kept complimenting it and saying they loved it! After the wedding usually everyone wants to see pictures and usually your pictures take a while and that's the great thing about the photobooth pics is that you have at least some pics to show people that want to see wedding pics. At first I wasn't sure if I wanted to waste the money on it but now I'm glad I did- it was worth every penny!!!! Thanks ShutterBox!!!!!
Shutterbox was a total hit! Our guests are still raving about how much fun the photo booth was. My hubby and I love our photostrip guest book. It truly captures the excitment and fun everyone was having at our reception. One of my favorite memories of our wedding day was when my cousins showed me pics of my 91 year old grandmother with oversized prop glasses and a boa striking a pose in the photobooth. Photobooths are a perfect way to ensure your guest have a great time at your event. Not to mention they get a keepsake to take home. Now who doesn't love that!
We used ShutterBox for our event in Phoenix and had a fabulous experience. From the first day I emailed them for information I was in constant contact with Brandon Stacey and he was on the ball. He took care of everything for me and I didn't have to worry about a thing. They were very reasonably priced. I looked through many other photobooths before I decided on Shutterbox. And they were perfect. They were set up on time at the event, the attendant Jonathan interacted very well with our guests and made them feel comfortable and have a great time! We would definitely recommend them and I personally would have used them for my wedding. Very professional and their pictures have your logo on them which was a very classy touch. Thanks again Shutterbox! We had a great time!
The first time I heard about this, I knew that I had to have it for my wedding. It was a huge hit ! Everyone loved it. It's a great way to see your guest's humorous side. Some of the pictures were hilarious. Two copies of the pictures are printed so your guest keeps a copy and left the other copy for us. The two people working the booth from ShutterBox were great and extremely helpful. They made this great scrapbook from the photos left by our guests. You and your guests can also view and/or order all the pictures online a few days after the event. They also give you a disk with all the pictures. ShutterBox was great. They are very professional, and the booth itself was very nice, clean and modern. They even arrived early to set up It's a few weeks after our wedding and guests are still raving about it. A few want to use ShutterBox for a sweet sixteen party and a birthday party - our photographer even asked about using it. I only wish I had more time to take more pictures in the booth, but as the bride I guess I was a little busy that day ... Hopefully, I'll be able to use them for another event soon !

Props or No Props?
Your Memory Book
Photo Frames
A prop box offers your guests a unique opportunity to get crazy at your event. Whether hats, glasses, wigs, boas or mustaches, a prop box will ensure that your guests photos are truly unique.
A memory book is the perfect way to capture the special photo booth moments and allow your guests to leave a message. ShutterBox packages including a Memory Book take all of the worry and hassle of producing the book off of your hands and your guests hands. Your ShutterBox Event Hero will have all of the materials necessary to assemble your book and ensure that all guests have the opportunity to leave their photo(s) and their messages. The Memory Book will then be presented to the host at the end of your event.
Photo Frames gives guests a special take-away from your photo booth and keeps the photos safe during your event. Additionally, photo frames can be pre loaded with a special message from the event host and placed on tables, waiting for guests as they take their seats. ShutterBox’s frames are 2X6 and accommodate multiple photo strips, featuring one at a time. Brides and Grooms ask for suggestions on the amount of frames to order. We believe a safe number of frames to order is 60% of total guests. Remember, most people attend as couples and will only take one frame, additionally, even though guests will take multiple pictures, our experience is that they will only take one frame.
We get the question all the time, Are props really necessary? Ultimately this decision is up to the the party hosts, but here are some statistics based on ShutterBox’s experience. Approximately 40% of ShutterBox reservations include an order for a prop box. During those events roughly 50% of your guests will use the prop box. Our suggestion is that props are not for every event, however at ShutterBox’s low rate of $50, you just may make that guests’ night who is expecting it!

Let’s face it, at the end of your event, there’s not much that you will leave with. Our most consistent feedback is that the memory book provided our hosts with such warm feelings and memories which they read over multiple times that night and the next morning.
