Identical Twin Brothers Give the Traditional Photo Booth a Modern Makeover

COSTA MESA, Calif. - Sept. 23, 2019 - PRLog -- The rise of smartphones may have given birth to a society obsessed with "selfies." However, the original selfie-taker continues to show enormous staying power – long after its original debut nearly a century ago. According to one report, over the past three years, searches in Google for the term "photo booth rental" have increased by an impressive 19%.

"I think the staying power of the photo booth has a lot to do with nostalgia. They're a timeless classic we all associate with birthday parties, weddings and other social events. They represent happy times," stated Carl Tautenhahn, co-founder of PBOUSA, a portable photo booth company. "Photo booths naturally bring people closer together. Then once the photo is taken, people enjoy receiving an instant copy to share."

Carl and his identical twin brother, Gerald Tautenhahn, are on a mission to give the century-old nostalgia machine a 21^st century makeover. Although today's rental market has become saturated with portable kiosk style photo booths, most of them are barely portable, the brothers say.

"We have always prided ourselves in providing quality traditional photo booths, but we realized that with all the options available on the rental market, nothing existed that was extremely lightweight and could be transported in the trunk or backseat of a tiny car," stated Carl. "Gerald and I got to work and after many weeks and months of prototypes, the CHZ Midnight Edition (https://www.amazon.com/Portable-Photo-Booth-Camera-Kiosk/...) was born. We truly believe this design will be the perfect solution for any entrepreneur that wants to earn income from providing photo booth services."

Made right here in Southern California, this new photo booth weighs just over 30 lbs and breaks down into 3 pieces for easy transport. With no tools, this portable photo booth can be set up and ready for use in under two minutes.

"For those who make a living from renting photo booths for parties, the price point of this new design allows them to purchase additional booths for far less money than traditional designs currently offer. Considering the ease of transport and setup, this new unit greatly decreases the manpower and time needed to put them to work," stated Carl.

The CHZ Midnight Edition portable photo booth is currently available for purchase for $4,499.00 – which is thousands less than other company's in the market – at http://pbousa.com.
