Photo booths are the easiest way to bring people together; to catch you in a second, exactly how you feel and look in that moment of time. Click, flash and it's done. Photo Bang photo booths are doing just that, offering vintage-style digital and analog photo booths for sale and placement, based in Colorado.
Our editorial team stopped by some locations where their beautiful and rare photo booths live to take a few pictures, strike a few poses and let you get to know them a bit.
Andy & Kate Manz - Publisher + Managing Editor
Favorite thing to do in the summer in CO?
We love spending time at our cabin in Marble. There is no cell service there, so we feel like we can disconnect and bond as a family. Included in that is jumping in cold rivers, fly fishing, riding dirt bikes, mountain biking and playing guitars by the campfire.
Favorite time of day?
Andy: Sitting with Katie on our deck during the Alpenglow hour of 7:00pm or so in the summer.
Kate: Morning! Nothing better than having coffee brought to me in bed by Andy with a kid or two in there snuggling.
Best advice you’ve ever gotten?
Andy: When I was ten or so, my dad told me that integrity is everything. Our reputation can take years to build but is able to be destroyed by one bad decision.
Kate: “God gave us two ears and one mouth. You can learn anything by talking.” - My mama.
