We invited some of our customers to attend our filming day, where they could freely talk about the journey of their photo booth career.
The promotional video features 5 different customers who all pursued a photo booth career for different reasons. Each individual has a different life story, with interesting tales to tell.
Here’s a few things they each had to say:

“Last year we decided to consider looking at photo booths because we were realising that although we were offering casino tables and things like that, we needed something extra to add to our company profile for corporate events.”
“Before I bought the photo booth, I was working in school as a TA. I enjoyed it, I really did and I thought it was great. But school, the politcs and everything its changing so much.”
“Having a photo booth has certainly changed my life, and changed my kids and my family, Im bringing in a lot of money in through the photo booth now, I get a lot more time with my family, I mean it’s a lot of weekend work with a lot of money”
“The great thing about running your own photo booth and having your own company I suppose is your own bit of independence.”
“It doesn’t feel like your working all the time because everyone is having fun which is generally not the case in most places you work.”

Special thanks to our videographer, Max Tobin, who provided his artistic ideas throughout the day as well as producing a fantastic edit.
Entrepreneurial from an early age (car washing, egg round, Betterware, Pools & more), Rob initially ended up in insurance moving from claims to sales and eventually, having studied the subject in his own time, to marketing. Having reached country head of marketing for an international business, in 2007 Rob decided to strike out on his own with an ecommerce business and at the same time make a move into property development. Whilst the e-com business did well, the property development not so.

After spending 4 years in Leicester studying physics where my final dissertation project was heavily programming based I was keen to begin a career in software development. Working on Photobooths seemed like a fun and interesting place to start.
When I am not in the office I enjoy being outside, hiking and exploring. I am lucky to live in Shropshire which is renowned for its hills and natural beauty. I like to volunteer with the national trust when I have free time, working to maintain a historical site and woodland in kinver.

Life motto: Life is what you make it
From College went into the family run business – Advertising Agency. Eventually took over the reins of the company and moved it into a more technical direction. After retirements changed the dynamic of the company we changed direction to a Direct Mailing Company specialising in digital and mailing’s for Electricity companies (MEB, British Gas, nPower). After a profitable run I felt a change was needed and so started a Programming and Consultancy Business. This eventually led me to the world of PhotoBooths and beyond.
