A new trend in Event "Phototainment" is the Open-Style Photo Booth. Basically, it's a photo booth without the walls. We offer our Open-Air Photo Tower, which includes an interactive touch screen just like our Photo Pods. The prints come out just like those from our Photo Pods. With an Open-Style Photo booth, you have the flexibility to include more creative backdrop ideas. We can use any backdrop at your venue-is there a cool exposed brick wall? A wall of greenery/hedges? A step & repeat banner already installed? A little lounge area? We also offer a plain Silver Glitter, Gold Glitter, and White Backdrop we can bring onsite. Or you can go with a Green Screen and choose any backdrop image you can imagine! The Open-Air Photo Tower Setup requires a 10'x10' space at your event for optimal framing of the photos and to accommodate guests. Some Advantages of an Open Photo Booth: -Fit more people in the booth/frame -More backdrop options -The open booth can build excitement/energy at an event since all of the action is out in the open -Setup time is shorter in case your event has a tight timeline -Included with this setup is a huge 42...

​ This weekend we provided a fun Green Screen Photo Booth for our client who hosted "A Day at the Ball Park" for their employees and their families. Guests chose from 3 backdrops, including a shot of Globe Life Park in Arlington, TX, a western scene, and a tropical beach. For our Green Screen Booth, we use our Open Air Photo Tower and a new soft box lighting setup for the best Green Screen results. We don't do Green Screen inside our enclosed Photo Pod because the lighting conditions are not optimal for Green Screen technology. Any shadows produce green spots and graininess on your final images. We have invested in superior lighting so that your Green Screen photos look as realistic and sharp as possible. To make this optimal lighting possible, we require an Open-Air setup. Includes green backdrop, photo tower, 42" slideshow, and lighting Guests Pick A Backdrop Our Green Screen Photo Booth allows guest to choose from several backdrops. We typically suggest providing 3 backdrop options to choose from, but you can choose more or less if you prefer. Our software allows us to use any photo from anywhere-you aren't limited to a set library of backdrop...

As you may have discovered, there is some competition in the market for Dallas/Fort Worth Photo Booth Rentals. There are all different types of booths, levels of service, and final products produced by the different companies. It can be difficult to compare all of the different options. Plush Photo Pod's #1 focus is on SERVICE. This means we respond to our clients' e-mails and phone calls right away. We show up early to setup for our events. We are hands on at your event and want our Pod to be a fun highlight of your party. Aside from service, there are some key questions you need to ask: What type of Cameras does the Company use? Does the photo booth use a grainy web cam or outdated camera? A lot of them do, and the results speak for themselves. Plush Photo Pods use Canon Rebel T3i and T5i Digital SLR cameras for crisp and professional images. What type of printers does the Company use? Some cheaper photo booths print out on slow and grainy inkjet printers. These prints tend to fade quickly over time. Plush Photo Pods use Dye Sublimation printers, which are quicker and produce beautiful, vibrant lab quality...

To our Marketing and Promotions friends...have you considered adding a photo booth to your next activation? Your audience has fun while using the booth, and they walk away with personalized brand collateral. Your Photo Booth will be fully branded in several ways. We wrap the exterior of the booth, custom print the backdrop inside the booth, custom design the layout on the photo prints, and customize the touch screen inside the booth.

We were invited to Neiman Marcus' Project Beauty at The Shops at Willow Bend with our Open Air Photo Tower. This event was the perfect fit for our Open Air setup, since it has more of a "red carpet" feel. The backdrop was a piece of the store's contemporary wall art, adding something extra to the photos. The event was bustling with beautiful people learning about the latest tips and trends in beauty and makeup. For this event we printed single photo 4"x6" prints instead of our typical 2"x6" 3-photo strips. The Gallery Can be viewed HERE!

We started Plush Photo Pod Photo Booth Rentals in August 2011 and have since operated 450 Events around Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio, and Houston. It has been quite an adventure with Anthony (the owner) operating at least 90% of the events himself . We've celebrated your birthdays, weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, holiday parties, graduation parties, quinceaneras, sweet 16s, corporate celebrations, marketing activations, anniversaries...just about any event worth celebrating. Service What sets us apart is that SERVICE is our focus. We love working with clients from the beginning of the process through until after the event. We don't view our company as just an "Event Rental" but as more of an entertainment and service experience to enhance your parties and big life celebrations. We are not a volume driven cheapo photo booth company like some of our Groupon/Living Social type competitors. We love this business and serving you, and we hope you choose to work with us! Here's to another 450 successful celebrations!

The Green Screen Setup with Social Media Sharing Experiential Event Marketing Plush Photo Pod was out at the Dallas Mavericks v. Portland Trailblazers game on Saturday, with a cool green screen photo booth for McDonald's of North Texas. Fans chose their McDonald's themed backdrop and received free McDonald's branded photo print outs. Backdrop options included a shot of a new Jalapeño Chicken Sandwich, the "I'm Lovin' it" slogan, and an exterior shot of a restaurant. Our Social Media Kiosk allowed fans to instantly share their photos on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and E-mail. Fun was had by all...and of course a Mav's victory didn't hurt!

4"x6" Scrapbook 2"x6" Scrapbook A popular Add On for our rentals, especially for birthdays and weddings, is a photo scrapbook/guestbook. After each photo session, one copy of the photo prints is placed in a scrapbook and guests are encouraged to leave messages and well wishes by their photos. Our books come with slots for either 4"x6" or 2"x6" prints, making it easy to keep the book neat and tidy, with no need for tape or adhesive. We provide the book, the pens, and the supervision to make sure the book looks neat and organized. Our attendant will ensure that an extra print from each session is printed out for the book. The photo scrapbook can actually be used as your wedding guestbook, too. This is a lot more fun and interactive than a typical wedding guestbook! These books can be added to any package for $150+tax.

What is Experiential Marketing? "Experiential marketing is a cross-media promotional activity which encourages two way interaction and direct physical immersion into a brand...Compared to mass media campaigns, experiential events tend to communicate on a much more personal level, generate a deeper level of emotional engagement, result in better conversion rates, and all at relatively low cost." ( http://www.marketing-made-simple.com/articles/experiential-marketing.htm... ) A Photo Booth is a great way to market your brand. We have clients who rent a Plush Photo Pod for their activations at festivals, expos, and other promotional events, always drawing a crowd. Photo Booths are also great for Grand Openings and red carpet events. We can custom wrap the photo booth with your branding with professional 3M material, just like when you'd have a vehicle wrapped. We can also customize the backdrop inside the booth to further emphasize your brand. All of the photo strips that print out will be branded with whatever message you want to communicate. These are powerful printouts...your brand is integrated into their personalized photos. Last night we provided a booth for the new Orange Theory Fitness in Allen, TX. The booth looked great with a custom backdrop... Grand Opening Photo Booth People Love Free...
