Trigger

A trigger can be useful in a photo booth as it allows the subject to photograph itself. Moreover, there are many types that you can use such as MIOPS smart trigger, wireless remote and wired remote. Wireless is very handy and you do not need to be off-camera to push it. But it is a small device and hence can be lost easily. On the other hand, wired remote is cheaper but the subject has to use it off-camera. MIOPS smart trigger is a very handy device and can be operated using count down or a sound. That is why; it is important to give proper information to the subjects so they can operate it. Moreover, most of the cameras also have a built-in self-timer feature.

Lighting

You are setting up a photo booth so how you can forget about the lighting. Without popper light, you cannot snap high-quality photos. You need a lot of light to make it work. Two types of lights that you can use which are as follows:

Artificial

Have you seen studio lights in a photo studio? you can use them in your photo booth. It is a form of artificial light which easy to manage as you can change the strength and color temperature. If you want to make the light strong, you can move it near the subject. The main benefit is you can use as much light as you want. There are many variations such as studio lights, ring flash, and beauty dish. You can use multiple variations of lights in a scene. If you want higher quality then you can use both natural and artificial together.

Natural

On the other hand, natural light is abundant and free and the best type for outdoor and indoor. Natural light is a great option in months of summer and spring. The main downfall is you can control the strength and color temperature of natural light. If you want to use it indoors, you can use reflectors to point the light to a scene. Moreover, make sure that the reflectors are steady. If you want some color tint, you can use the blue hour and golden hour. The natural light is free but the main problem is you cannot manage it.

Backdrop

After setting all of the above things, now you need a beautiful and glamorous backdrop. A photo booth is not complete without a touchy background.
