ThoughtBox Photo Booth

ThoughtBox Photo Booth was by far the highlight of my mom’s 60^th birthday party. Matt and his team were incredibly helpful and communicative throughout the entire process, giving me all the creative and logistical details I needed to know in preparation for the event. I worked with Matt to design the photobooth (open or closed layout and backdrop), the photostrip layout, and the really awesome scrapbook that he put together for everyone to put extra copies of their pictures in with a nice note. The photobooth operator was incredibly friendly and helpful, the props were fun, and it was a perfect activity for all ages. I highly recommend ThoughtBox Photo Booth for your next event!

Wow, Matt did a wonderful job setting up and manning the photo booth for our daughter’s wedding in Santa Barbara in October 2015. He went way above and beyond, even getting fabric sewn together to make a special backdrop to fit our wedding theme. He’s easy to work with, pleasant, reliable, and fun. The photo booth added a lot of sparkle to the evening. AND the photos he took look great. I highly recomment ThoughtBox PHoto Booth for your special events.

Super friendly, great enclosed box, fun props (always need a viking helmet!), and very quick to get us the photos! Thanks Matt and team :)

Matt and Alex are wonderful to work with from the first time I called. We lucked out that they were availalbe on short notice for our daughters wedding. They are extremely professional and very prompt. They helped to make the wedding reception fun. Our guests loved it and had fun taking home memories of a great event. The turn around on the photos were very quick. I didn’t expect such fast results. The props were fun too and Matt was very helpful. I would highly reccomend ThoughtBox for any of our special events. Thanks Matt and Alex for a wonderful job. The Pettersen’s and Burman’s:-)

My wife & I used Thought Box photo booths service for our wedding.
From the beginning, when we were in the booking process, till the end of the wedding Matt & Alex McBride the owners of Thought Box made our experience super fun & easy!
The photo booth was a hit at the wedding and everyone enjoyed taking home some pics of them inside the booth.
Everybody loved them!!!
2 thumbs up!

I posted this on the knot but as someone who just got married — online reviews were SO important in my search for vendors. I am a very thorough person and spent hours and hours pilfering through all of the possible options.
Our guests LOVED the photobooth!
We ended up going with the 4 hour package + guest book.
The props were so fun and they even let us include some cardboard cut outs of our cat that we made.
Customer service was solid and while pricey (that’s Santa Barbara for you) — they were the most fairly priced of the 20+ photobooth companies that I looked at.
Overall a great pick!
I was not the biggest fan of how the photo strips printed — we had requested four pictures but they changed it to three because they thought it looked better (this is fine but I wish they would have let me know ahead of time). Also the printed strips looked a bit off-​center and not quite aligned.
Those are the little details that I notice — our guests had the most amazing time and the photo booth was definitely worth the price for the fun that people had.
I definitely did my research — and for a photo booth in Santa Barbara — this was the best bet by far.

Matt and Alex are terrific to work with and add a fun and creative element to any event. They also provide a photo album at the end of the night… no waiting around for weeks to see the pictures.
Their Photo Booth is a must for any party!

So easy to work with! I contracted ThoughtBox only a week before my wedding and they were so responsive and easy to work with. Our guests really enjoyed the photobooth and I’m so glad I added them to our wedding day!

I hired ThoughtBox for my wedding and it was a total success! Alex was great to work with. They do custom cut-​outs as props in addition to the usual, fun hats and things. We had them do cut-​outs of our cat and dog, and my husband and me while we were making faces and things. These were a huge success. Everyone had so much fun, and I’ve been loving and laughing out loud at the photos.

Went to a friends wedding and to my surprise there was a photo booth there! Alex and Matt are very professional and know how to make sure that everyone has a good time. A very good idea for any party, plenty of props and lots of fun.

We used Thoughtbox Photo Booth at my sister’s birthday party in Santa Barbara and it was so much fun! All of her friends from UC Santa Barbara went crazy taking pictures with the Photo Booth and even the adults loved it. I would definitely recommend getting a Thoughtbox photo booth because it will seriously liven up your party and give people a way to remember your special day. We are going to use it again for my nephew’s Bar Mitzvah in SB and he is soo excited :)

I rented Thoughtbox’s photo booth for my husband’s 30^th birthday party and it was the highlight of the party. Everyone loved taking crazy photos and the props they provided for the photos made it so much fun! The photo quality was excellent and the booth was clean and easy to use. They arrived early and the booth ran perfectly. I have seen other photo booths at parties, and this is by far the best I’ve seen. Our friends actually ended up using them a few months later for their wedding and they did another amazing job.
