Now is the time to book your holiday photo booth activations. December weekends in San Antonio, Austin and the Texas Hill Country fill up fast, and the best Christmas party photo booth experiences go to the planners and clients who lock in their dates early.
Whether you are hosting a company Christmas party, a corporate holiday mixer, a family-friendly winter festival or a festive private soiree, the right photo booth turns a good party into an experience guests talk about all season. At MBP Photo Booth , we have been making it an experience for 11 years, and our holiday activations are built to give your guests something beautiful to take home.
Here are the holiday photo booth activations our clients love most this Christmas season.
Photos with Santa Portrait Station
Forget the crowded mall line. Our Photos with Santa portrait station brings a studio-quality Santa experience straight to your holiday party.
Built on our Portrait Lounge, it pairs professional studio lighting with elegant drape backdrops, so it is a photo booth without a booth. Families, kids and coworkers sit with Santa for polished, frame-worthy holiday portraits instead of quick snapshots.
Studio lighting that flatters every guest, from toddlers to grandparents
Festive backdrops styled to match your Christmas theme or company colors
A perfect fit for company family days, school and church holiday events, and community Christmas festivals in San Antonio, Austin and the Hill Country
Pair it with metallic prints and every family leaves with a keepsake that looks like it came from a portrait studio.
Studio-quality Santa portraits, right at your holiday party. No mall line required.
Photo Keychain Station with Christmas Charms
Our keychain station is one of the most-requested holiday party favors of the season. Guests snap their photo, then watch it become a custom photo keychain finished with beautiful Christmas charms.
Think sparkling snowflakes, candy canes, ornaments, Christmas trees and stars that guests choose themselves, so every keychain is one of a kind. It is a hands-on activation that keeps a line buzzing and gives guests a gift they will clip to their keys and carry for years.
Ideal for corporate Christmas parties and employee appreciation events
Custom branding available for logos, event names and dates
A holiday party favor that doubles as a stocking stuffer
Every keychain is two keepsakes in one. The front shows your logo in a festive holiday design, and the back holds your guest’s photo straight from the booth. Gold-tone Christmas charms finish the look: candy canes, snowflakes, trees, bows and tiny wrapped gifts. Match it with a branded photo strip in your company colors and your holiday activation goes home on every guest’s keys.
Custom Photo Magnet Station and Metallic Prints
Photo magnet station
Holiday photos belong on the fridge. Our custom photo magnet station turns every guest's booth photo into a festive magnet, designed with your holiday theme, logo or event name. It is the favor that stays in sight long after the tree comes down, which makes it a favorite for brands that want their holiday activation remembered into the new year.
Metallic prints
For a true luxury touch, upgrade your holiday photo booth prints to metallic prints. The shimmering finish makes reds, golds, greens and twinkling lights glow, so every Christmas photo looks like it was made for the season. Metallic prints pair beautifully with the Photos with Santa portrait station and our classic photo strip booth.
Our custom photo magnets turn every booth photo into a keepsake guests will see every day. The front frames the guest’s photo in a holiday design built around your brand colors, with Christmas trees, snowflakes and festive stripes. The back carries your logo surrounded by holiday icons, so your brand stays on the fridge long after the party ends. The clear acrylic finish makes the colors pop and gives each magnet a premium feel.
Scribble Booth: Write a Letter to Santa
Our Scribble Booth becomes a magical "Letter to Santa" experience for the holidays. Guests record a short video, then write and doodle right on top of it: wish lists, holiday greetings, hand-drawn reindeer and all.
Every video is shared digitally, so guests can send it to family and post it on social in seconds. The whole experience is fully customized with your branding, which makes it a standout for corporate holiday activations, retail events and family Christmas parties.
Kids love writing their wish lists to Santa
Adults love the playful, interactive twist on a holiday card
Brands love the shareable, branded content that spreads across social media
The Scribble Booth turns a letter to Santa into an interactive holiday moment. Guests write their wishes and doodle Christmas trees, presents, snowflakes and reindeer, and every stroke shows up bright against the dark screen. The finished video is shared digitally, ready to text to family or post on social, and the whole experience is branded to match your event. Its clean white design and soft lighting fit right in at an upscale corporate Christmas party or a family holiday celebration.
