Welcome to the photo booth setup page. Since we attend over 200 events each year, we’re trying to update this page regularly with venues we frequent the most.
We’ve styled our booth at venues such as Elmore Court, Cripps Barn and Lapstone Barn, each with its own layout and lighting considerations.
Every venue has its own character. The Painswick’s intimate townhouse style differs from the open barn layouts of Cripps Barn or the grandeur of Elmore Court, which is why positioning and backdrop choice always matters.
(please note we are constantly adding new venues )
