What was invented in 1925 and has become the must have addition to parties and events in 2012? Photo booth mania is back with a vengeance. Who would have thought that a modern version of this classic would move from dime stores to arcades and now at the nicest event venues in the country?

Unlike the small photo booths of old, photo booths like those offered by Kansas City photo booth company Booth Crazy Photobooths, offer guests a whole new experience.
