Early on in our photography meetings, our awesome photographer and I both professed love for photobooths, lovingly dubbed the “Faux”-to Booth. 
We went back and forth on whether to hang fabric or use a white screen, but we ended up with something better!
The Caribbean! When the sun sets in Jamaica, it gets dark. Fast. There isn’t ambient light, which in Chicago makes me feel like the sun never sets. Pure black - a perfect “backdrop” for our faux-to booth.
Picture ranged from the normal, happy, smiling faces… to the funny, wacky faces.
Our friend Sasha hangs with my niece and nephew - they LOVED him. 
Love the pomander booty shot!
Lisa & Andrea goof around with our “props” (okay, more like chair sashes and pomanders) but, it worked!
Things also got downright saucy! A cigar came into play at some point that makes its way into many shots. A lot of people were cursing that cigar the next morning… haha.
Oops! Looks like B-Fresh caught A & J trying to sneak a smooch!
All better now
Mr. Quiche and I snuck in for a few saucy shots of our own…
I may have said this about other pictures from the weekend, but these really are some of my absolute favorite shots! I love all of the fun, silly poses struck by our friends and family. They make me smile!
The newly engaged couple also gets in on the action!
Philip gets in on the action with David!
This last one is probably my favorite of all the faux-to booth shots!
Picture overload, I know… but it was too hard to pick between all of the fabulous shots! This was one of the best decisions that we made. Are you having some kind of photo booth?
All of these fun, amazing shots, by Ashley Colhouer.

Share this post: Ya Mon! Faux-to Booth Fun!
Love the faux-to booth shots. You two look amazing together in those couple shots!
The last two photos are hilarious, too!
These are fantastic pictures!!! What great keepsakes from your special day. I love that you were able to take the natural environment and use it for the backdrop for the pictures instead of having to put up a sheet or something!! Love them!!
Woooo! I can feel the heat from you and Mr. Quiche sizzling off my computer screen. WOWZA!!! What fun photos!
haha that last pic looks like it should be in a Lacoste add!
I can see why you had a hard time narrowing your photos to share — everyone is having so much fun! I do like that night-black background.
wow! Those are all so much fun! i love the faux-to-booth idea… so creative. it looks like everyone has so much fun posing for them too!
Wow, so many fun pictures! Every time I see one of your recaps, I notice how much fun everyone is having!
Cute pictures! No photobooth for us, we blew way more than our photo budget on the photographer and it doesn’t even include an album! No extras for us! We have two photographers, so we’re hoping to get all the candid shots through them!
Oh my goodness these photos awesome! Everyone looks like they’re having such a good time
Awesome! I hope my faux-to-booth goes over half as well.
Did you have the camera on a timer? or was it set up with a remote?
Oh man, that shot of the two of you looking at each other — the MR has his hand in your hair with a cigar? That’s HOT!
Love these shots!
@oracle: One of our photographers was taking the pictures
they are AMAZING! the lighting with the black background turned out awesome, and you guys have hilarious friends!
SO COOL! and how awesome is that black night backdrop!
AWESOMENESS!!! Love all of it. Might be a bit jealous.
I LOVE your faux-tobooth!! It is my favorite of all photobooths, seriously. What fun!! Every time I see your pics I want to go to Jamaica!
These are great!!! You may have had a post about it previously, but how did you have it set up???
I love the contrast between the black background and the people in the pic. Just something about it that gives it a wow factor.
Okay, I saw about 4 dresses I want from these photos! And the “saucy” pic of you and Mr. Q is hooooot.
@kmattso2: We were just on the deck with the sand & water in the background! Our photographers had one of the reflective umbrella things (professional wording, eh?) set up behind as well.
These are fabulous!!!! Love the saucy shots of you & Mr. Quiche.
