Operator Spotlight : Belle from Bella Photobooths

This week on our ongoing Spotlight Operator series I had the pleasure of speaking with the delightful Belle from Bella Photobooths. Belle is very new to the photo booth industry and brings a social focus with her open booths to the Sydney market. 

How long have your been a "photo boother" and what made you decide to become one? 

Bella Photobooths was born 11months ago in Sydney and I wanted to do something that was fun, entertaining, lively, crazy just like me so I introduced Bella Photobooths to the "Bella" Co. I'm originally a makeup artist and thought instead of offering hair and makeup packages which is pretty standard here I thought I'd be different and offer makeup and photobooth. Nothing better than having fabulous makeup looking great in pics's right!!!

What are some of the challenges of running a photo booth hire business?

I'm not the most tech savvy person so I would probably say the technical side of things can get quite challenging. So much hardware, software and equipment. Who would have thought one would require so much for a great pic

If you weren't a photo booth operator what would you be doing? 

This is a hard one. There's a few things but the one that stands out to me the most would be a travel journalist. Nothing more exciting than travelling around the world, jumping out of planes, eating amazing food, learning different languages and cultures and getting paid for it.

What's your the best tip you can give someone who is considering hiring a photo booth for their important event? 

Definitely do your research, read people's reviews, make sure the company your hiring is reputable and above and beyond make sure the prints are good quality.

What's the funniest thing you have ever seen happen in a photo booth? 

Hmmm this is a good one.. I was doing an event not long ago and there was a couple using the booth. Drunken guy decided to get down and dirty in front of the booth and everyone with his missus. Let's just say there was lots of touching!

Who in your opinion has the most fun in a photo booth kids or adults, boys or girls, men or women? 

Ohhh that's easy. Hands down women!!!

Thank you to Belle for sharing with us her thoughts on what has to be the most fun industry in the world! (yes I am biased, I know). If you're in Sydney and would love Belle to bring the good times and have you look fabulous doing it no matter the event be it a Wedding, Birthday Party, School Formal or Corporate Event be sure to get in touch with Bella Photobooths for a quote.
