Props That Pop: 5 Booth Add-Ons That Always Steal the Show
A good prop can make a photo. A great prop? That’s a whole personality shift.
We’ve seen thousands of guests step into the booth — and trust us, it’s the right prop that turns a shy smile into a full-on performance. If you want your photo booth to spark laughs, loosen people up, and leave you with scroll-stopping snaps, start here.
Here are our top 5 no-fail props:
1. The Gold Microphone
Nothing makes people sing (or fake sing) like this beauty. It’s bold, flashy, and somehow makes everyone feel like Beyoncé. Works best in group shots and dance party poses.
2. Giant Sunglasses
Instant comedy. The bigger, the better. Throw these on any guest — suddenly they’re a rockstar, a diva, or both. Great for breaking the ice.
3. The Sign That Says “I Don’t Know Her”
Sassy, sharp, and made for drama. Pair it with an “awkward” photo partner for max effect. Bonus: works every time with bachelorette parties.
4. Feather Boas
Glam meets chaos. Boas bring movement and texture to your photos — and they give everyone something to do with their hands (a sneaky confidence booster).
5. Something Local or Seasonal
Lobster claws? Santa hats? Pumpkin crowns? Props that tie into the Maine vibe or the time of year instantly make your booth feel custom — and give your guests something memorable to talk about.
Pro Tip:
Don’t overdo it. A curated mix of 8–10 props keeps the booth experience exciting without becoming a costume closet.
