CASE STUDY: Maximizing Your Budget at Conferences & Trade Shows
The Two Dudes Headshot Booth is one of the most effective tools you'll find for driving traffic to your exhibit booth at Conferences and Trade Shows. We offer several packages that scale in size and spectacle, but none of our packages ever compromise on quality. And even our most basic Standard Set is an incredibly effective tool for driving traffic, capturing custom lead data, and making a positive impression on show attendees.
By itself, the Standard Set will draw a crowd; pop us in an empty spot in the room, and you'll soon have a (quickly moving) line of people filling out our branded data capture form and waiting to speak with one of your salespeople.
Planning Your Graduation Party Photo Booth
Ah graduation: The capstone on years and years of study and toil. School is no joke—and neither are most school portraits (Well, except for these gems). For the most part, though, yearbook pictures and senior portraits never convey personality, let alone the sense of pure unadulterated elation that comes when you finally finish your degree. If you’re embarking on a graduation party photo booth, which you definitely should, here are some tips to keep in mind as you plan for the big event.

It’s no secret that having a photo booth at your party takes the fun factor up to 11. How often,in our daily lives, do we get to play dress up? Nowhere near enough! There is something magical about putting on a wig, headdress, or foam finger that just lets us escape ourselves and have a ball.
Here are some of our favorites!
Sometimes The Best Backdrop Is No Backdrop
Pop Quiz:
You hired a photo booth, but you forgot to mention that there's very little space for the booth (certainly not enough room to put up a backdrop), the setup is outside, nowhere near a power outlet, and you need the booth running for a time duration that includes full sun all the way through to pitch darkness...what do you do?
Answer:
You thank your lucky stars that you hired the Dudes...and that they bring light meters (and know how to use them)!

We recently realized was that our setup is capable of taking AMAZING headshots (well, duh), but people still want to have fun, because, well, our photo booth is built for fun. So, what can we do to make both possible?
Well, we came up with something we affectionately call "the Mullet".
ali + jon | san francisco wedding
Only the coolest of cool couples can pull off a gothic wedding dance party on a Sunday night in San Francisco, thank you Ali and Jon. Lucky enough we had our Vixen background to ensure our photo booth could stand up to the awesomeness of this group. How many ways can you say edgy, stylish, awesome (oops already said that, you get the point!)? Did I mention good taste? If you’ve never been to the club Mercer in San Francisco, it’s intimate and hip in a way that only a San Francisco nightclub can be. Also mad props to the props the bride and groom brought which included a long black veil, furry red coat and skeleton mask. I want them all. I have a problem.
around the nation in 16 days
Who visited 11 cities in 16 days, pulling off more than 20 events showcasing Microsoft’s new Surface Pro 3? None other then the Two Dudes. It has been a whirlwind and we are just now coming back up to the surface (no pun intended) for a breath of fresh air. The last few weeks have been filled with blood, sweat and tears…err should I be honest and say traveling, eating and mingling with some of the nations leading innovators from Microsoft. Needless to say we feel very fortunate to be a part of Microsoft’s Futures tour, it has been a fabulous and exciting experience and we have enjoyed every minute of it.
flood mansion wedding | san francisco
I’m not going to lie - when we walked through the doors and entered the Grand Hall at the Flood Mansion in SF, I took a moment to myself and imagined I lived in this classic Italian Renaissance designed mansion with stunning views overlooking the San Francisco Bay. Thirty seconds later, I was back on the job sprinkling the dolphin sweat and unicorn tears on our photo booth to make sure we were fully charged with portrait magic.
the berkeley school | fundraising street festival
What a lovely day spent at an outdoor street fest helping to raise funds for The Berkeley School. Good cause, good people, good fun, we couldn’t ask for anything more. We confirmed that kids and adults alike love the booth.
get down, get derby | fundraiser
This past weekend we attended the School Force annual fundraising event Get Down, Get Derby at the College of San Mateo. The Derby themed party was riddled with stylish attendees wearing finely crafted designer hats, which only added to the fun props and photo booth experience at the event. This group was the first to try our red curtain backdrop and the result was stunning if I must say so myself. The red curtain is my favorite backdrop in our collection hands down and you can see why in the photos below.
cal co-op graduation | the berkeley city club
This enthusiastic group celebrated their U.C. Berkeley graduation at the Berkeley City Club and actually set the record for the most number of people in a Two Dudes photo with their very FIRST photo of the evening. That’s right, they got 26 people in their very first photo! No doubt this group came ready to party and had no hesitation in getting the most out of their photo booth experience. Congratulations to the 2014 Cal grads and go Bears!
