In January we ran a promotion at the Grand America bridal show where the winners would receive a FREE photo booth. After a close Facebook competition, Alyse and Josh were the lucky winners! We had a wonderful time celebrating with them at their reception this past weekend at Wadley Farms in Lindon. It was the perfect evening for a perfect couple. We wish them a lifetime of happiness!

Join us as we celebrate with the amazing people from the Muscular Dystrophy Association at their Muscle Walk 2012 coming up this Saturday, March 31st, at the Olympic Oval in Kearns. This is the largest family driven event of the year, and they are expecting to have 500-1,000 people in attendance. This wonderful event will include live entertainment, face painting, balloon making, the photo booth, and and a victory lap in honor of the 1,500 local Utah families that MDA serves! The MDA Muscle Walk is a part of a series of local walk events held across the country to pay tribute to and raise funds for children and adults served by the Muscular Dystrophy Association.

Lace up your shoes and join us this Saturday! The photo booth will be “running” the entire event, and we can’t wait to see your best “muscle” poses! Click here for more information about this great event and how you can get involved.

Sample pizza and pie from some of Salt Lake’s favorite restaurants and enjoy music, games, free Yelp swag, the photo booth and a chance to win prizes.

It was the party of the year this past weekend at the Utah AIDS Foundation Oscar Night America Party held at the Rail Event Center. We were thrilled to be  a part of such a noteworthy event, and to provide photo booth fun for the guests. From the table and stage decor, to the food and entertainment, this was an event leaving everyone wanting more. Attendees wore their red carpet attire at this fundraising gala which raises money from its silent auction for the Utah AIDS Foundation. For more information about the Utah AIDS foundation, and how you can become involved, click here.

Here are a few shots of what the evening entailed…

We had such a great time with our “Grand” giveaway contest, and we want to thank everyone that participated. It was a close race, and the couple that pulled ahead to win are JOSH and ALYSE!!!! This lucky couple won a FREE photo booth package by getting their pictures taken at the Grand America Bridal Show and then had all of their friends and family “like” their picture on our Facebook page. In the end, they received  867 “likes”! Nice work! We are so excited to celebrate with them at their reception on May 5th at Wadley Farms in Lindon. Here is their winning strip…

Money raised from this event is dedicated solely to animal care as well as habitat and capital improvements at Utah’s Hogle Zoo. The booth was hoppin’ all night long, and we captured some really great shots of all the guests. To view pictures from this event click here. Thank you Zoo Rendezvous for another fabulous event!

ShutterBooth Utah has found a new home! We are proud to be a part of the Studio 1053 crew in the heart of Sugar House at 1053 East 2100 South. Studio 1053 is home to four extremely talented and well known companies here in Utah: ZumaPhoto, Culinary Crafts - the Salt Lake annex, Sprout Photo, and PixelWhipped.

This studio is the perfect creative atmosphere for meeting with clients and showing off the photo booth. One of our photo booths will be set up in the studio for clients and perspective clients to test drive and experience the fun.

Here is a quick glimpse of each of our new “roommates”:

ZumaPhoto is a collective of three highly experienced photographers with three distinct styles and one shared passion for telling stories. Specifically, stories about relationships.  The three photographers are: Mitchell Burt – Founder and managing partner of ZumaPhoto, Logan Walker, and Heidi Ann. Sure they make cool/edgy/hip images, but they feel that a photo can and should do something more than just record what you look like – it should say something about who you are. To do this, they look for natural, dynamic, and genuine moments that happen of their own accord. Sometimes this means a purely photojournalistic approach, and other times a more interactive and playful session to find the best you there is!

Culinary Crafts is Utah’s only 7 time Best of State Caterer, and has been catering for 26 years throughout Utah and the surrounding states. They create events and customize venues to fit just about every need imaginable. Whether you need catering for a corporate convention for thousands, a wedding or holiday party for a few hundred, or a social occasion for your family and friends, Culinary Crafts has the resources and expertise to provide flawless service and restaurant quality food. Known throughout Utah as the preferred caterer for many venues in Park City, Salt Lake City, Orem and Provo, Culinary Crafts can help you locate the perfect place for your event. Serving all of Utah, Culinary Crafts is the caterer to choose for creative ideas backed by award-winning service and cuisine.

Sprout Photo specializes in contemporary child, maternity & family portraiture, both in-studio and ‘on-location’ in their client’s natural habitat. By ‘contemporary’ they mean that they are principally concerned with capturing their subject’s personality, rather than merely a likeness. Elaborate poses, ornate backgrounds and other baroque distractions common to classical portraiture are done away within order to interact with and focus on their subjects. The resulting images are genuine, honest and meaningful, and it turns out that this approach is more fun for their subjects, too!

PixelWhipped was created to serve as an alternative to the large, faceless image editing, graphic design, and album design companies that are in the market today.  PixelWhipped offers personalized, efficient, and high quality services that are tailor fit to our individual clients and their needs.

We are excited to join this wonderful group of vendors in Sugar House, and look forward to working with our clients in this great new space. We will still be operating out of Park City as well, to accommodate our clients there and the surrounding areas. Stop by for a visit and try out the photo booth.  We would love to have you!

We are excited to celebrate with the Women’s Ski Jumping Team for the annual Join the Journey benefit tonight as they celebrate the recent news that women’s ski jumping will now be an event at the Olympic Winter Games! Here is a press release explaining more about this exciting and momentous event:

Gala benefit to celebrate Women’s Ski Jumping
New ticket price this year as a special thank you

Park City, June 23, 2011 — Join members of the Visa Women’s Ski Jumping Team for the annual Join the Journey benefit July 15 as they celebrate the recent news that women’s ski jumping will now be an event at the Olympic Winter Games.

On April 6, 2011, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced that women’s ski jumping was added to the 2014 Winter Games program in Sochi, Russia. Ski jumping had been the only discipline in the Summer and Olympic Winter Games that did not allow women to compete.

These elite athletes can now officially follow their dreams and represent the U.S. in Sochi. Women’s Ski Jumping USA, the primary supporting organization for elite U.S. women ski jumpers, is hosting its annual gala benefit from 6 to 10 p.m., Friday, July 15 at a luxurious, $10 million private home in Glenwild, Park City.

The benefit invites supporters to “Join the Journey” as these women follow their dreams and make their historic march toward the 2014 Olympics, which will be the first gender-equal Games in Olympic history.

“Because of the IOC decision, countries are now putting more resources toward their women’s ski jumping teams and we can’t let the U.S. fall behind,” said Deedee Corradini, WSJ-USA president. Funds raised at the benefit help pay for the women’s coach, travel, and training expenses.

The Visa Women’s Ski Jumping Team is one of the top-ranked squads in the world and the next three years are crucial leading up to Sochi. Members of the team will participate in major international competitions including the 2013 World Championship in Val di Fiemme, Italy, and the inaugural World Cup circuit beginning in the 2011/2012 season.

As a special thank you to supporters and friends of women’s ski jumping, the event ticket price has been lowered this year to $150 per person, down from $200.

“We wanted to give back to the community of people who have given to us over the years. They have made a difference and we want this to be a great celebration,” said Beth Moon, event coordinator.

Highlights of the evening include “Around the World”-style gourmet food from the finest of Park City’s culinary scene; wine, beer and opening cocktails.

A live and silent auction that features unique and luxury items, amazing trips, ski equipment, and special memorabilia.
