photo booth obsession
What it is: After famous celeb/influencer photographer @bryant created a separate account for his signature photobooth, @boothbybryant, fans have been obsessed with the rustic B&W photo style. While an invite to his photobooth is elusive, fans have been recreating the photos using self-timer portraits and filters. There is even a TikTok filter now. All it takes is a quick glance at the SOS by ABBA sound on TikTok to see hundreds of thousands of people bringing to life their ~photobooth~
How brands can jump in: Is your brand photo-ready?? What would a photobooth-edited pic of your brand look like? This is a fun one especially when it comes to the filter on TikTok! Just make sure not to use the ABBA sound. (psst, if your brand is a bit spicy, maybe poke a little fun, like example 3!)
