Tintype Photobooth at a Wedding Welcome Party at Devils Thumb Ranch

Why a Tintype Photobooth Belongs at Your Welcome Party or Wedding

Welcome parties, rehearsal dinners, and wedding weekends are about connection. A tintype photobooth naturally slows the pace of the evening, inviting guests to be present, engage with one another, and step into a moment of intentionality.

Unlike digital photo booths or disposable favors, tintype photography offers something deeply personal. Each portrait is created using a historic photographic process and finished as a one-of-a-kind metallic print. Guests leave with a tangible memory they can hold, display, and revisit long after the wedding weekend has passed.

A Meaningful Take-Home Memory for Your Guests

Weddings often pass in a beautiful blur. A tintype portrait gives your guests a physical reminder of how the weekend felt—not just how it looked. Whether taken as a couple, a family, a group of friends, or a solo portrait, each image becomes a keepsake tied to your celebration.

Solo portraits in particular are a standout. They give guests a rare opportunity to be photographed intentionally and artfully—something many people don’t often experience.

Tintype Photobooth Service Breakdown

The tintype photobooth is designed to flow seamlessly into your wedding events without feeling rushed or intrusive.

• Hourly coverage with a 2-hour minimum
• Approximately 25 tintype portraits per hour
• Metallic prints delivered on-site for guests to take home

For example, if you’re hosting around 100 guests, most couples find that the 2-hour minimum allows the majority of guests to receive a portrait. Adding an additional hour creates a more relaxed pace—giving guests time for solo portraits, group portraits, and multiple combinations without pressure.

Extra time also allows the photobooth to feel like an experience guests can return to, rather than something they need to hurry through.
