Santa Cruz Montessori Arts and Dinner Auction

Instapix Photo Booth was honored to be a part of Santa Cruz Montessori's 50th Anniversary Arts and Dinner Auction held at Hotel Paradox in Santa Cruz, California. Hundreds of guests arrived ready to bid on a number of silent and live auction items...all in order to support the Arts Program at Santa Cruz Montessori. By donating a photo booth package, Instapix helped raise $800 that will go toward a program that will provide students of all ages the chance to develop their skills in the areas of art, music, and drama.

Four Ways To Save

 
 

We know the photo booth competition is tight out there but we refuse the temptation to cut corners in order to offer a cheaper price. We, like everybody else, enjoy saving money therefore we have created a few money saving promotions while still being able to offer the same quality product and world class customer service. 

Schools-Do you need a booth for Homecoming? Sadies? Winter Formal? Prom? No problem. We got your back. We realize that schools are always on a tight budget therefore we are more than willing to work with you and the budget you have. If you make us your preferred photo booth vendor for the year (meaning you agree to book us for multiple events), you will receive a greater discount per event. Simply put, the more events you book, the more your school saves. Do your school a solid and contact us. We'll give you an offer you can't refuse! (I've always wanted to say that!)

Non-Profit Organizations-We believe that as a society, we need to help each other out. We are committed to helping out our community one smile and one pose at a time. A great way to keep your organization's mission and vision on the forefront of people's minds is to have a photo strip with your logo on their fridge. As a thank you for continuing to make our community a better place, we not only offer a 20% discount on all of our packages but we also sponsor a few non-profit events per year. That's right, a free photo booth at your event! Just give us a holler by sending us a request. The 20% discount is also valid on weekend rentals.    

Weekday Rates-Things get a bit slow around here on weekdays because most events are held from Friday-Sunday. If you have an event that is scheduled on a Monday-Thursday, take advantage of our discounted weekday rates. Save 25% off all of our packages! Period! No fine print, no restrictions, and best of all, no hassles!   

Price Matching-As the saying goes, "If I had a penny every time someone asked if we can price match...I'd be a millionaire!" The simple answer is yes, we do price match. However, please understand that not all packages are created equally. It's not as simple as "Company so-and-so is offering 3 hours and unlimited prints for such-and-such a price. Can you price match?" Please take a look at what they offer IN their packages. Some details to research: Do they charge for props? Template customization? Guest Book? Some booth companies are more slippery than a used car salesman (sorry to all used car salesmen). Many "options" that come standard with our packages are unique to Instapix such as our mini magnetic photo book and our digital Thank You cards. In the end, if you take into consideration quality, customer service, and our unique options, you will find that in most cases, our prices are already the best. 

 

Thank You.

 
 

Choose your favorite photos from your event, pick out a template, and we will create a digital postcard for you to print and mail to your guests. You will receive a print ready PDF or JPEG of the card so you can simply upload the image to your favorite online print shop like Vistaprint and order your cards directly. This will ensure that you get the best price possible! Feel like giving Mother Earth a fist bump? Attach the JPEG to an e-mail and send a virtual card to your guests. Best of all, this add-on is FREE and will be included in all packages. Yippee-Ki-Yay...go ahead and do your happy dance. 

 

You Don't Say...

We are proud to announce our new full color sign boards. Printed on vinyl and mounted on acrylic, these hilarious signs will entice you and your guests back to the photo booth over and over. Furthermore, many of our signs were created to match our costumes to help create an even funnier scene! These signs are exclusive to Instapix and are included in every booth package. Have an inside joke or popular phrase amongst your friends and family? We can create a custom sign just for your event.

Now That's a Bright Idea

InstaPix is proud to introduce our new marquee "Photos" lights. This banner is displayed on top of the backdrop. In addition to grabbing the attention of all your guests, it adds a bit of nostalgia and a vintage feel to your event. 

Classing up the joint!

We Say No To Groupon

It may seem like we drank a bottle or two of haterade before writing this post however, we just want to explain where we are coming from as well as our point of view.

Although Groupon, Living Social, and Amazon Local may be a great way for some companies to advertise or offer a promotion, it does not make financial sense to most small business like us. Let us explain the process in further detail and fill you in on how Groupon, Living Social, and Amazon Local works.
