Vintage Photobooth

 

It's been a while since I've posted any photobooth shots. I forget how many I have. When I worked at the gallery, Tim kept most of his vintage booths there, so often, I had ample time before an event to experiment. Lindsey and I have oodles from our courtship. Who doesn't love photobooths? Everyone looks great in them. Especially the vintage variety. Check out the vintage photobooth pool on flickr for some real beauties from the past.

1. With Tracy at Katy's wedding (2010)
2. With Lindsey after a long night of cooking and/or working at the gallery (2005-2006?)
3. With Katy and Lindsey (2004)
4. Just me (2006?) 

Vintage Photobooth

The vintage photobooth at our wedding produced many gems. Besides leaving a picture strip behind for us, we asked everyone to share advice or good wishes. My nephew was 7 and and really into knights, hence the sword poses. I love this so much. He's 11 now and still such an awesome kid.

Pocketbooth & Photobooth

Reaching back into the photobooth archives. I think this is from 2003, which is about the time I met my friend Tim Garrett, who started the first photobooth rental business in St. Louis, PhotoboothSTL. Besides vintage booths (like the one we had at our wedding) Tim eventually retro-fitted vintage booths with digital equipment and added those to his rental business. He is the creator of Pocketbooth, an incredible iphone app, which I would certainly have, if I had an iphone. But I'm a Luddite, remember? So, instead I'll periodically be posting the real deal, vintage photobooth shots. I've been thinking about both of these friends lately, so Nina and Tracy, xo.
