Go to File > Photobooth Settings and you’ll see the following screen.

If you choose to use DSLR Remote Pro, here are the settings we recommend. If you follow the above setup, here’s what your photobooth goers will see:

Kensington remote sitting on the laptop so people know to use it.

Slideshow projector screen angled to cover some of the setup and make it more private, with a 10ft VGA cord running from the laptop to the projector.

Laptop on a music stand right next to the camera (giving the slight illusion that people are looking at the camera even when they’re looking at the preview on the laptop screen).

Camera on a tripod about 6 ft from the center.

Secondary light pointing across the backdrop screen to minimize shadows produced by the key light.

Key light pointing down at a 45 degree angle from the center of the backdrop.

Backdrop screen flush with the back wall.

We had a few requirements for the setup: it couldn’t take up a lot of space we’d need enough room in the field of view for a lot of people to gather and we’d need the laptop close enough for people to see the screen easily (preview of the shot). We went with one CowboyStudio light and a more advanced key light - higher beam, higher power, slightly brighter environment - using a Kino Flo Diva (we have some nicer equipment around the office due to some of the photo and film work we do for clients). This could be anything from a wall to a black curtain.

We used DSLR Remote Pro by Breeze Systems. This could be a wireless mouse, but we used a Kensington Wireless Presenter to make it easier for folks. Cable connecting the camera to the computer.We used a 13-inch MacBook Pro but you could use a PC. We used a Canon 60D with a Canon 28-135 mm lens. Any DSLR camera that works with your selected photobooth application will do. Here’s what we used and how we did it: Equipment But, since printers are such a pain, we decided to keep the images digital, presenting them instead as a slideshow throughout the evening, and then sharing them on Flickr.Įliminating the printer and keeping our equipment simple made our booth time-efficient, space-efficient, and a snap for people to use. That’s partly because most booths also require a printer to provide people with a strip of printed photos as a souvenir. Much of the advice available about DIY photobooths leads you down some winding paths, involving complex, hard-to-find equipment (like an old Dell screen in a box!). The booth also became an attraction in and of itself, drawing teams together for group shots - but, more importantly, giving folks from any and all teams a chance to connect in fun, spontaneous ways. A few funny props and costume items encouraged everyone to get a little silly and we wound up with some truly unique shots. Since people can see and manipulate their images for themselves, they feel more in control and at ease - whether they want to strike a pose or just smile. It was a total hit! The magic of the photobooth is that it appeals to hams and shyer folks alike. We always make sure to capture countless photos, but this year we added a new twist by setting up our own photobooth and projecting the images as a real-time slideshow throughout the evening. One thing that makes our annual Viget birthday celebration so memorable is having our entire team together in one place.
