Lee's Fun Save The Dates in the Booth
Lee and hi fiance chose a Photoboothy theme for their save the date postcards. He set up the camera on a tripod and backdrop. Grabbed some wine, props and the fiancé and got to snapping pics.
They took a huge 123 photos in total and managed to reduce that down to the four that they needed. Tough job. The unused photos contained poses such as wearing each others sun hats, holding little hand made pennant flags, the pet dog, bunny rabbit ears, tiger grrrr and many more.

Lee's tips for making photobooth save the date cards
-
When taking the pictures, any old camera will be good enough; you'll be shrinking pictures down to tiny size so they'll look fine. Actually, the "worse" the camera the better, since photobooth pictures are not the highest quality.
-
Get them printed at a few different places and see if/where they print the file information on the back of the picture. We ended up going with Walgreens because they put the print information right down the middle on the back, where it was easier to black out and still have it look like a postcard

You don't really need a ton of information on save-the-dates. A date and a general location is plenty. If you're using pictures, you don't even need your names. (If you're worried about people not recognizing you, you have other problems.)

Have fun!
