Let’s be honest—some of the best memories at any event are made in the photobooth. Whether you’re striking a goofy pose with your friends, showing off your dance floor glow-up, or snapping a romantic shot with your partner, the photobooth is where the magic (and the laughter) happens.
At RBA Photobooths, we’ve seen it all—from iconic group shots to hilarious bloopers. So today, we’re sharing our insider secrets to help you nail the perfect photobooth pic every time!
📸 1. Know Your Angle
Everyone has a “good side,” and the photobooth is your chance to show it off! Whether you’re taking a solo pic or squeezing in with the crew, angle yourself slightly instead of facing straight on—it’s more flattering and adds depth to the photo.
RBA Tip: If there’s a group, stagger your heads so no one’s hidden—think triangle formation, not a line-up!
🎭 2. Grab a Prop (or Two!)
Props aren’t just for laughs—they’re your photobooth accessories. A mustache, funky glasses, or giant emoji sign instantly adds personality to your photo. And guess what? RBA always brings a stash of custom and themed props to match your event.
RBA Tip: Layer props for extra flair—try a hat + glasses combo or speech bubble + boa for that “main character” energy.
💡 3. Use the Lighting to Your Advantage
Our photobooths are equipped with professional lighting, but a few small tweaks can make a big difference.
-
Don’t stand too close to the camera—about 2–3 feet back is perfect.
-
Make sure taller folks don’t block the lights.
-
Don’t wear sunglasses unless you want the mysterious look (👀).
RBA Tip: Look toward the ring light, not the screen, for that bright-eyed glow-up effect.
😄 4. Loosen Up and Be YOU
Some of the best photos happen when you're just being yourself. Strike a silly pose, throw up your favorite hand sign, or recreate a favorite meme. Photobooths are not the place for stiff smiles—let loose and have fun!

🧑🤝🧑 5. Don’t Forget the Group Shots
Some of the most loved photobooth pics are group ones! Whether it’s your bridal party, coworkers, or your full party squad, these photos are frame-worthy.
RBA Tip: Let everyone pick one prop and do a theme! (Think: cowboys, glam, disco, superheroes, etc.) Group themes = next-level energy.
📱 6. Use the Booth’s Tech to Your Advantage
With RBA’s high-tech booths, you can go beyond the basics:
-
Boomerangs for instant social-ready content
-
GIFs to capture the full vibe
-
Filters to match your mood or event aesthetic
-
Live sharing so you can post your pic before the DJ drops the next beat
RBA Tip: Ask us about customizing your overlay or filters—we can match your wedding colors, company branding, or party theme!
🖼️ 7. Take Multiple Shots—It’s Free Fun!
You’re not limited to just one take! Try different poses, swap props, or just freestyle a bit. The more shots you take, the more you’ll find that perfect gem. And hey—bloopers are often the best part of the night.
RBA Tip: Use the countdown to time your poses. Think: “Pose 1, Pose 2, Laugh for the 3rd!” 😄
