A Prescription for Photo Booth Perfection

Just when you thought you knew ShutterBooth like the back of your (prop-holding) hand, we’ve got another cool chic to introduce to our smiling, posing community. ShutterBooth fans, meet Alana. A lot of you have already seen her, said hi and even jumped behind the curtain with her. (We’ve seen the evidence). But we got a chance to meet the “real” Alana and are excited to formally show off that side to you, too.

She’s a medical student! “I am either studying all day or busy working at the local hospitals, so I wanted to find a job that I would enjoy and take my mind off the stresses of school. I love working as a host as it is a fun and interactive way to meet people, as well as, visit different venues and participate in the local events here in Atlanta. I enjoy putting a smile on others’ faces. It’s truly a job that is enjoyable!”

She loves kid posers! “They pick up so quickly on how to use it and it doesn’t take long for them to try out all the props. They are usually my repeats in the booth and each time they go in it’s a new pose or goofy face! You can see their genuine excitement from the time that they realize that it is a ShutterBooth and it’s really fun to watch!”

Dynamics make her smile! “Things always start off formal at weddings, with family shots usually no using any props. By the end of the night however, everyone is piling into the booth, utilizing all of our props and really having a great time making silly faces in the booth. As the party gets going, the pictures usually get better! Some of the funniest moments are when the groomsmen at a wedding for example, all take off their shirts and pile into the ShutterBooth with the props. As I like to say, the more the merrier!

Her favorite venue is the Biltmore Ballrooms! “The venue is so luxurious and picturesque. You can literally stand at one end and see all the way down to the other end and the design of the venue and ceiling specifically is just breath-taking!”

She’s a bookworm! “When I’m not hosting, you can find me buried behind a book studying, because I always have some exam that is coming up. This job is definitely a fun release for me on the weekends!”

She’s a local-stuff lover! “I love to try out the local restaurants and hot spots in Atlanta. I am from Miami, Florida originally, so getting a touch of what Atlanta has to offer is pretty exciting. I like acting like a tourist and visiting places like the Coca-Cola Factory, CNN building, and Stone Mountain.”
