iPAD PHOTO BOOTH
FOR SALE.
If you're looking for a professional iPad photo booth for your business, this is the MWE setup I'd put on the shortlist. Here's what comes with it, what you'll still need and who I think it makes the most sense for.
A LOT OF THE
HARDWARE IS
ALREADY THERE.
The MWE booth combines the booth body, built-in lighting, rolling base, travel case, iPad mounting hardware and custom front branding into one package. You still supply your own compatible iPad and choose your own photo booth software.
ONE DEVICE.
LESS TO
JUGGLE.
An iPad can handle the camera, touchscreen and computer side of the booth experience in one device.
That can make an iPad booth especially appealing for somebody who wants a compact digital setup without building a more complicated camera system.
Add the photo booth software you choose, build your event workflow and you've got the core of a professional digital photo booth experience.
Simple doesn't have to mean homemade.
BUILT TO LOOK
LIKE EVENT EQUIPMENT.
One thing I care about when looking at a booth for a business is whether it looks like something you'd be comfortable putting in front of a paying client.
- Professional photo booth body
- Large built-in ring light
- Adjustable white lighting
- RGB lighting options
- Rolling base
- Rolling travel case
- iPad mounting panels
- Custom front graphic
WHAT COMES WITH
THE MWE BOOTH?
When you're comparing photo booths for sale, don't compare only the outer booth body. Compare what is actually included and what you'll have to purchase separately.
THE BOOTH ISN'T
THE WHOLE BUSINESS.
Buying the physical booth gets you a major piece of the setup, but there are still a few things you'll need before you're ready to take paid bookings.
A COMPATIBLE iPAD
The iPad is the camera, touchscreen and computer that powers the guest experience.
PHOTO BOOTH SOFTWARE
You'll choose the software that handles photos, sharing, GIFs, boomerangs, templates and other guest features.
YOUR BUSINESS BASICS
You'll still need to handle your contracts, payments, insurance, website and the other pieces required to operate professionally.
OPTIONAL EVENT EXTRAS
Backdrops, props, printers and other add-ons can be added based on the services you decide to sell.
WHO I'D PUT THIS
ON THE SHORTLIST FOR.
GOOD FIT
I'd consider this kind of setup if:
- You're starting a photo booth business
- You want an iPad-based booth
- You want built-in lighting
- You want a professional-looking booth body
- You want a rolling base
- You want a travel case included
- You want to add your own branding
- You plan to serve weddings, parties or business events
MAYBE NOT THE RIGHT FIT
Compare other systems if:
- You specifically want a DSLR booth
- You want interchangeable-lens camera control
- You need specialized studio lighting
- You need a printer built into the physical booth
- You already own another complete booth system
- You need features this package doesn't include
DON'T SHOP
BY PRICE
ALONE.
A lower-priced booth can cost more in the end if you immediately have to buy lighting, transportation cases, mounting hardware and other equipment before you can use it. Compare what comes with each booth, what you already own and what you'll still need.
THE BOOTH PRICE
IS ONLY PART OF IT.
You'll want to budget for the physical booth, compatible iPad, software and the business tools required to take bookings.
If you're planning to offer prints, you'll also need to think through your printer, media and print workflow.
The point isn't to buy everything on day one.
It's to know your complete startup cost before you commit your budget to the booth itself.
HOW MANY BOOKINGS
UNTIL IT PAYS YOU BACK?
The right booth isn't just the one you like looking at. It has to fit the economics of the business you're trying to build.
Estimate the complete startup investment, what you expect to charge and what a typical event will cost you to operate.
Then you can start estimating how many bookings are required to recover the equipment investment.
BUILD THE REST
OF YOUR PHOTO BOOTH BUSINESS.
If you're not ready to buy yet, that's fine. Work through the business first and make sure the booth fits the plan.
