The photobooth is nothing new when it comes to entertainment during weddings and other events. But the "hand-drawn" photobooth? This is the first time we've seen this!
Local artist Natalie Allsup-Edwards runs The Hand Drawn Photo Booth. She started it in 2011 as a student at the University of Utah. Now she employs five artists to cover the demand of hand-sketched "photobooth" strips.
Her "pretend photobooth" - inspired by 'The Flinstones' - allows you to step right up, and insert fake money into the "camera," which is a live artist waiting to sketch you. You sit down at the bench and choose four poses to strike for your strip of pictures. (Don't worry, there's a sheet full of ideas like "thoughtful" and "looking away.") You then sit and hold each of the four poses for a minute or two while the artist - insanely quickly - sketches them out in front of you!
Amanda and Big Budah got their pictures done, and were impressed with the likeness of the photos!
