Our Fun Box Photobooth is up and running and while we knew it would be tons of fun, there is one thing we didn’t anticipate…. THE LAUGHTER! As a person who until now has only experienced a photo booth as a guest taking my own pictures with loved ones, it surprised me that I’m gaining just as much joy out of being on the outside working the prop table because I get to hear how HAPPY it makes everyone inside. It’s true. The laughter is truly infectious. As a musician, music therapist and founder of Grow and Sing Studios my mission has always been to “connect families through the magic of music”, but the truth is, this is just a natural extension because we are connecting PEOPLE through the magic of memories. We hope you will consider our photo booth for an upcoming event in your life. Here are some of the memories captured so far in our FunBox Photobooth! — Holly Lesnick, Director/Owner of Grow and Sing Studios.

Photo Booth service in Orlando Florida for birthdays, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, Weddings, Corporate events, celebrations, anniversaries, and any gathering where you would like memories captured and laughter guaranteed.

Celebrating 10 Years of Connections

As kids are returning to school and our classes are about to head back to session, how about spending some time documenting your kiddos. Consider taking pictures that you will cherish, without the struggle and posing that normally accompanies picture taking. How you ask? Simple. Capture your kids doing what they do naturally. Those are the pictures you will love, and that will be most memorable.  Unlike the “I’m attempting to smile Mom, but my face looks like I’m growling instead” pictures. We all know those, right?

When our Kindermusik photographer Rachel V visits a studio class, she focuses on the things we don’t. Things like the way your child’s face lights up when the parachute comes out, or how excited they are to choose their own movement during the class hello ritual. Most importantly, when they look at you and see your love for them written all over your face! Those are the moments you’ll cherish forever. Not the picture of your kid standing next to a wall saying “cheese”.

And so, Grow and Sing Studios’ Ms. Leslie and Ms. Holly have some simple tricks to turn your point and shoot camera into your best friend.

1. Turn your flash OFF. Flash distorts natural color. Leslie’s favorite room to snap pictures in is the playroom. It has huge double doors to outside that lets in tons of natural light. Rachel V captured this picture in their playroom on the floor! By far the Watson’s favorite picture of their kids!

2. Try to avoid interrupting your child’s play. Allow them to go about their business, and you’ll capture some gems. Try to take the pictures on their level and snap while they aren’t paying attention to you.

Pardon the mess, We were camping and C found pine cones!

3. Document time passage. For the younger kiddos, these stickers below for their shirts are so much fun! For the older kids, consider an annual “survey ritual” like this one. Fill out the survey, and save with a picture in an album each year!

4. Natural settings create beautiful memories. Whether it’s the beach, the mountains, a walk down the street or a bike ride, when a child is fully engaged in their surroundings or activity, you can’t go wrong. Ms. Holly loves capturing her family as they take evening strolls, or play at the beach. Rachel V of course captures those moments in class.

5. Have fun with FUN apps! If you are taking pictures from your phone, there are some really fun apps you can use to tweak or customize your photo. You may want to try Instagram which has fun filters and frames. If you want to create a collage or grid, try Photo Grid, or PhotoFunia. Oh the fun you can have!
Most importantly, take pictures, print some and back them up on a jump drive to keep somewhere safe in case your computer takes a hit!
