Where we've been playing.....

Firstly, apologies for neglecting the very high amount of followers reading this blog... I hope you didn't miss us too much.

We, here at PhotoboothME have been extremely busy lately. We've had quite a bit on...

Firstly, we appeared at Castle Towers in time for Valentines Day.... where lovers, friends, strangers, sole operators and a vivacious security guard (see below) got behind our black curtains and posed for us.

 Here is our booth with some awesome Castle Towers branding....


Secondly, we also went along to a number of university orientation weeks to help celebrate the launch of the very funny movie, Hall Pass with Owen Wilson. 



For the grand finale of a busy week strutting our stuff at various uni's, we were lucky enough to be invited to the Sydney Entertainment Quarter's premiere of Hall Pass.

Unfortunately, though he was in attendance, Owen Wilson did not get into our booth "Sonny", but he walked past it and gave an approving look, which is sorta the same thing. So, if you ever take some snaps in our booth Sonny, you are virtually brushing with fame.

This is Sonny and his cousin "Shots in a Box" from Orange, all decked out in some Hall Pass branding on the red carpet.
 
Lastly, we've also been going along to loads of weddings and birthdays. One particular venue, Ravensthorpe in Albion Park, NSW looked like it was built especially for us! Here is a picture of our booth “Talia” sitting around at Ravensthorpe, waiting to party like it's 1999 (Congratulations to the newlyweds Kristy and James).


 
All in all, we've been very busy. No excuse for not writing to you though, so we promise to try harder in future. 

If you are lost and need to get back onto our website.... here's the link!

Monday night festivities (and stupidity)

It's Monday night and we were bored at home and wanted to have a play on our booths.... so we decided to attack the hill again and bring one up into our unit. Not smart, and something we won't try again. Every resident of our building heard us colourfully debating the best way to get the booth through a very narrow doorway and into a very narrow (and mirrored) elevator. The young guy that lives underneath us (that I may or may not have a slight crush on) wanted us to bring the booth over to his place in exchange for a few beers and a bbq with his mates. Unfortunately, as my hand was getting crushed at the time, we politely declined.

It was a logistical nightmare, but we did it without a scratch (to both the booth and the mirrors should anyone from the strata committee be reading this) And despite the scathing commentary, we agreed we worked well as a team of booth removalists.



Additionally, I found it worthy to note the spare bedroom that I spent all weekend changing into a comfortable guest room, is now home to a tower of guest books.




Delivery Day!!!

So I found some photos on the camera from one big hunk of a delivery.

I had the luxury of watching Rupert pack them into the trailer from my ivory tower. You would think from this first lesson, we would have learnt not to load them whilst on a hill.... yet we still try to defy this simple law of gravity daily to no avail. Nevertheless we have both cancelled our gym memberships and are getting stronger by the second.
