NHS Charity Photo Booth and Ball Photography, Dudley

What better when to enhance your charity entertainment than with a a fun photo booth! We’ve done quite a few charity photo booth bookings over the years and always look forward to the annual fundraiser with the guys from the cancer care unit. Alongside the photo booth with also had our “shoot and print” ball photography service where we take formal photos in a studio setup which the guests can then buy if they wish – we then donate a percentage of the proceeds towards the charity. All in all, we raised £164 for the charity and had a great time in the process! Here’s looking forward to next years charity ball!

UK Oracle Users Group Convention 2012 – ICC

Early on in December this year, we were fortunate enough to be booked by California based company “Rimini Street“, to add a twist to their stand at this years UK Oracle Users Group (UKOUG) convention at the ICC in Birmingham. Having only been at the ICC a few days previous for the NCFE Awards, we were lucky enough to know our way around. The guys at the ICC where great as usual and very helpful – so a big shout out to them.

It was certainly an interesting day with all sorts going on and people in attendance from all over the world. The Rimini Street guys were fantastic and a pleasure to work alongside – and they certainly enjoyed the photo booth! I think we need to make a special mention to the guys on the other stand who managed to crash a remote control helicopter while flying it around indoors, it put a smile on quite a few faces :)

Premiership Photo Booth Hire in Birmingham

 

Hot on the heels of Amir Khans photo booth at the end of January, we were promptly booked for the 26th birthday celebration of Premiership striker Luke Moore. Luke has been putting in the time with Swansea FC as they move up through the middle of the league after his recent transfer from Aston Villa.

 

Setting up in Birminghams Bluu Bar, we ran through the evening and had quite a busy night. As well as the birthday photo booth, Luke also had a DJ and a couple of torso ice sculptures. But these weren’t ordinary ice sculptures no. Shots of vodka were poured into the neck of the torso and chilled as it made it’s way through the ice body before coming out of the nether regions into a glass. And to top things off the drinks were poured by a number of girls wearing nothing but grass skirts and nipple stickers! Which came as a bit f a shock to our recent employee Phil.

 

Far from being the typical footballer you see in the papers, Luke was very down to earth and clearly out to have a good time with his mates without going over the top with all of the celebrity bravado, making the whole night a pleasure to to attend.


December: Photo Booth Hire in Bristol, Camden, Wales and Warwickshire!

Well it has been an absolute manic start to December, it seems like we’ve only woken up to go to work! Still, who else gets to say that they go to parties for a living?

 

A month full of Christmas parties means only one thing; lots and lots of photo booth hire for corporate events, and what’s better than a photo booth as a fun type of corporate entertainment? – nothing! (well, we think so anyway!)

 

We started off with the Capita Christmas Party in the luxurious @Bristol Exhibition Centre in Bristols Millennium Square. To get to the party on the 2nd floor, we had to go through the magnificent exhibition rooms on the lower floor, which proves to be quite an experience in the dark. Needless to say, at one point, I lost my way and ended up inside a giant talking vagina! The party was a great success and everyone there had a great time.

 

 

 

Next up we sent Mark and Lauren off to the Milford Haven Port Authority Christmas party in … you guessed it… Milford Haven. A long one, but another great success! Thanks Lauren and Mark!

 

After a lovely Sunday spent mostly in bed asleep, we were ready to go again. This time Jamie and Elliott headed off to the big lights of London. Set up in The Sway Bar in Camden, the party was prepped ready for the 700 employees of the lavish Gourmet Burger Kitchen due and went on well into the early hours. A big thank you to Steve (the Santa costume suited you ;)) and Zoe from GBK and to the girl whose doughnut I ate, if it wasn’t in her hand at the time, I’d happily claim it an accident! Despite the hefty parking ticket – thanks Camden Town Council – the night was a great success and we got back to Hereford in a record 2 hours 44 minutes!

 

 

So that was Monday and it wasn’t long before we were off again, this time heading out towards Caernarfon along the north Welsh coast for the Magnox Rewards and Recognition Awards Ceremony. A slow start, but the crowds soon began to grow and queues lengthen. The awards were held in The Celtic Royal Hotel amid gale force winds – which proved to be quite cold. However, inside it was much warmer and Debbie had done a great job of organising the nights entertainment. An eventful return journey with no map or sat nav and no mobile phone signal meant that the 8 hour round trip was definitely a sign to go to bed again.

 

Come Saturday, it was time to wrap up the week with one more photo booth booking. This time a bit closer in Kenilworth, Warwickshire  (just past Birmingham over towards Coventry). It was the PPS Works Christmas party – and it certainly fit the bill. A big thank you to Kate and Bernie who arranged the night and of course to all of the guests who attended. Setup in the events building of The Chesford Grange Hotel it was merely seconds before people opted to jump in the photo booth instead of eating dinner. I’d also like to thank ‘Bo’ for rubbing his genitals on my head and Debbie “flower” for showing us her nickers in an innoventive attempt at keeping her photos safe. We can only imagine what her husbands reaction was once they got home!

 

 

So that was us for the first week in December! Don’t forget, there is plenty of time to hire a photo booth for your Christmas or New Years party and if you get in quick you could take advantage of our photo booth hire promotions. If we aren’t lucky enough to see you before, we would like to wish you a happy Christmas and all the best for the new year!
