Recently, we had the opportunity to do an open-air photo booth rental in Minneapolis at the 2019 VISION conference, hosted at the beautiful Mystic Lake Center in Prior Lake, Minnesota.
Customized Photo Booths
When working with our customers, our overall goal is to make them happy; we want to be the cherry on top at any given event we have the honor to participate in. This is why we work with our customers to customize our photo booths to match any theme. The VISION conference this year was 80s themed, giving us the chance to incorporate a fun backdrop and props that the party-goers could pose with.
VISION Conference
This four-day conference, attended by professionals from financial, government, and education institutions, is centered on security in the financial and information technology sector. Business and IT innovators from all around the world attended this event, so we wanted to make sure we could make the event memorable. Since the conference was 80s themed, we incorporated a fun purple backdrop to enhance the overall look of the conference. We also included the logo used for the VISION conference on the photo prints along with a quote relating to the subject of the conference. We even incorporated some fun 80s themed props that people could pose with in the photos! This included some fun neon sunglasses, fake mustaches, and 80s signs.

“Are you sure that we are awake? It seems to me that yet we sleep, we dream.” As quoted in William Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer’s Night Dream.” This was the theme for an exclusive, upscale event that was held recently at the Aria MPLS, a venue that provides old-world elegance combined with new-world chic. When the client, Chad Hudson Events on behalf of HBO and AT&T, reached out to us, their request was both simple and intriguing. Their client wanted an open style photo booth that would support the party’s theme, “A Midsummer’s Night Dream”. The event would be held during the HITEC conference. We were very excited that they chose our photo station rental in Minneapolis to help turn a dream into a reality.
Creating a Dream
ARIA is a place where dreams are made and this event would be no different. We were thrilled that our newest client wanted our photo station rental Minneapolis to create the illusion that would only be enhanced by the entertainment that would be provided for their exclusive guest list. In order to stay true to the theme, they requested a custom backdrop be made from fresh moss. This backdrop would compliment people who would be dressed as fairs, trees, butterflies, and other “characters”.
It took a ton of fresh floral to transform this industrial venue into a “dream place” but they succeeded and then we enhanced it with our photo booth. In fact, the photographs were so beautiful with their mossy backdrop, that we did 4×6 prints that would show off how impressive it was. We also added a text sharing option so that guests could share it on social media.
Changing Reality
As a part of the text-sharing option that we provided, a couple of logos were added to the bottom of each picture. These logos were for AT&T and #HBOatHITEC. The logos did not take away the beauty of the photographs at all. In fact, it served only to enhance them. As an added bonus, it increased brand awareness for all the people involved in making it happen.
The purpose of a photo booth is primarily to allow people to have fun. This backdrop allowed them to have photos of themselves in a new, exceptional place that they may have never seen before. For a moment in time, thanks to HBO at HITEC and AT&T, this place was a dream and all of their friends on social media platforms would see it.
Dreams Meet Reality
Shakespeare once said in The Winter’s Tale, “Dreams are toys.” Our job as photoactivation specialists for this event was to use our photo station rental Minneapolis to turn the toy into the dream. We also gave credit where it was due – to HBO and AT&T, as well as HITEC and the Aria MPLS. Without them, the event would not have been possible. We would not have had the pure pleasure of becoming part of this event.
If you are hosting an event and you want to create a fun way to increase your brand awareness or simply create a dream, a photo station rental in Minneapolis is a great option. Simply contact us and we will provide you with the photo booth that will make your vision a reality.
During the first weekend in April, all eyes were on downtown Minneapolis for the NCAA Final Four. While the rest of the country was either cheering the stunning wins of Virginia and Texas Tech or nursing their wounds for Auburn and Michigan State, VIP guests got a taste of hometown pride with a Prince-themed party at Erik the Red. Here’s more on this fun photo booth rental in Minnesota:
Purple Rain
We had a lot of fun working with our client, Meet Minneapolis, on the Prince-themed party. Prince is a Minnesota icon, and it was essential to get all of the details right in order to celebrate this pop legend. Our custom photo booth included props like an electric guitar and purple rain clouds. We also provided signs with that read “You’re filthy cute,” and “Dearly beloved”. The photos were further customized with a purple border, another homage to the late rock star.
Custom Photo Booth Rental
Custom props really helped this Final Four party come together, and can always benefit any themed event. We understand there is a fine line between upscale props, and cheesy decorations, which is why we have an in-house designer that will work directly with you to make sure we capture your vision. Our photo booth props are high-quality and can be used over and over again. Whether you are hosting a company-branded party or a specially-themed bash, we can help you come up with ideas to make your event unique.
We also have different styles of photo booths, depending on your needs. For the Prince-themed party, Meet Minneapolis opted for the Glam Booth option, which can provide color or black and white photos. We stuck with color photography to showcase the custom props. The Glam Booth option smoothes skin and helps everyone look their best. The Open Photo Booth was perfect for large groups and gave everyone room to show off their best Prince impersonations.

When Allison and Alex hired Time Into Pixels to set up a photo booth at their Minneapolis wedding, they knew they were offering a fun, interactive element for their guests to enjoy. Held at the Machine Shop, their wedding was the perfect mix of elegance and glam. We provided a glittery, gold backdrop to complement the decor of the space and their wedding theme. Heartwild was the wedding photographer and we’re grateful they captured some behind-the-scenes of guests enjoying the photo booth.
The bride and groom chose to have our Open Style Photobooth their celebration and we think it was exactly the right choice for the occasion. The spacious booth is perfect for events that are interactive and allow for guests to engage – whether they’re in the photo or not!
3 Reasons Why You Might Want a Photo Booth at Your Minneapolis Wedding
1. The Photo Booth Encourages Interaction
Because guests can see others enjoying the booth, the props and each other, they’re more inclined to participate! Having a photo booth gives guests something else to engage with at the wedding if they don’t feel like dancing the night away.
2. Guests Can Leave With a Souvenir
We can print 4×6 copies of the photos for the guests to take with them and for you to put in your photobooks. Guests can sign the photobook for brides and grooms to read after the party and for years to come.
3. We Can Customize the Message
As we did for Alex and Allison, Time Into Pixels can create a custom design that fits your overall theme to include with the pictures as well. We based theirs off of the chic and shiny theme of the rest of the wedding celebration.
Your wedding will be as unique and special as your love story. When you hire Time Into Pixels to host a photo booth, we take care of the entire process – from setting up to shooting to take down. You won’t have to stress about a thing and you can rest assured that your guests will have a great time! Contact us today to figure out which option is right for you!
Minnesota trade shows and surrounding area expos have traditionally been places that have attracted large audiences. The potential for business brand marketing is often really high since a company can almost guarantee some face time with the audience. Additionally, the ability to more carefully target the marketing pitch to appeal to the type of consumer that will be visiting the show is also an advantage. While these are some examples of ways that trade shows can be helpful to business growth, one of the biggest drawbacks to large expos and similar shows is the challenge of engagement. With so much going on in one place, people tend to wander around more, and it can be harder to capture their eye and get them to stop and interact. One solution is the use of a Minnesota photo booth backdrop!
Minnesota Photo Booth Backdrop
A recent client engaged this idea by having a custom Minnesota cut out backdrop installed for their booth space at the Let’s Play Hockey Expo. The backdrop was both eye-catching and impressive and provided a fun activity for those passing by to participate in. Even at an event where people didn’t necessarily feel “picture ready”, the photo booth backdrop was a huge success and many people stopped to engage with the sponsor of the booth. The simple idea not only allowed Twin Cities Orthopedics a better chance to speak with potential clients, but it also gave them a great way to market their brand, as each photo print taken home or shared via social media contained their logo and name.
Make Your Event Memorable
If you are looking for an innovative idea to help your business trade show booth or industry expo space stand out and attract more attention, then consider hosting a Minnesota photo booth backdrop. It is not only engaging and fun for visitors, but also gives the sponsoring company or brand a marvelous opportunity to market themselves in a unique way.

Open Style Photo Booth
The modern elegance of the Blaisdell set the scene for a Great Gatsby themed event. Using a venue wall as the backdrop, we perfectly matched the theme to create an open style photo booth. Guests felt as though they had traveled through time, straight into a grand ballroom of the 1920’s! An open style photo booth does not distract from your event rather, it enhances the experience.
Upscale Props
We provide the props, you create the pose. Upscale props add flair to a classy photo shoot. For the extravagant Gatsby, no double-breasted suit jacket would be complete without a hat. Flappers could not flaunt their cocktail dresses without a string of pearls. We brought hats, pearls, feathers, and pipes to the table for employees to accessorize their evening attire. Welcome to the roaring twenties!
