Permanent Photo Booth Installs: Find Us at Pamplona and The Bulldog

By Carlos Lerma

Beyond single-event rentals, we now build permanent and semi-permanent photo booth installs for bars, restaurants, and venues. You can find our booths year-round at The Bulldog in Lafayette and seasonally at Pamplona Tapas downtown, starting with Halloween and running through the Christmas season.

A booth that lives in your space works differently than one that shows up for a party. It becomes part of the experience your guests expect, a reason to come back in costume, and a marketing channel that produces content every single night you’re open.

Where to find us right now

  • The Bulldog, year-round. Our booth is installed and running every day. This month it’s dressed for the season; see what guests are making in the Bulldog Halloween gallery.
  • Pamplona Tapas, Halloween through Christmas. Downtown on Jefferson Street, Pamplona’s “Nightmare on Jefferson” is in full swing, and the booth stays through the holiday season. Browse the Nightmare on Jefferson gallery.

Stop in, hop in the booth, and your photos land on your phone before your drink order does.

Why venues install a booth instead of renting one

It markets the venue every night. Every photo leaves the booth with your branding on it, shared by the people your next customers already trust: their friends. A seasonal overlay, like a Halloween or Christmas design, gives regulars a reason to post again even if they shared last month.

Shareable content, made by your guests. The booth produces a nightly stream of photos, GIFs, and boomerangs that guests text and post themselves. Your social feed gets real people having a real good time in your space, which outperforms another photo of the menu.

Data you actually own. Guests share photos to their own phone or email, and opt-ins at the booth can feed your mailing list. You learn when your crowd peaks, which nights move, and you build a list of people who were demonstrably in your building having fun. We cover the compliant way to do this in our guide to corporate booths and data capture.

Seasonal refreshes keep it fresh. The same booth becomes a new attraction each season. We redesign the overlay graphics for Halloween, the holidays, Mardi Gras, game days, or whatever your calendar calls for, so the booth never goes stale.

What’s included in an install

Because the booth lives in your space, support matters more than it does for a one-night rental:

  • The screen and hardware, installed, configured, and maintained by us.
  • Overlay graphics designed in house, refreshed for seasons, promotions, or sponsors, built by our design team around your brand.
  • Technical support. If something isn’t right, you call us, not a manual. We keep backup equipment ready because technology fails eventually, and we plan for when, not if.
  • Gallery hosting, so every night’s photos are collected and shareable, like the Bulldog and Pamplona galleries above.

Could your venue use one?

If you run a bar, restaurant, hotel, or event space in Acadiana and want a booth that pays for itself in posts and repeat visits, we’d love to talk through what an install could look like, permanent or just for a season. Check your space and tell us about your venue in the notes, or start with our brand activation page to see how we think about booths as marketing.

And if you’re near downtown or the Bulldog this week, go see one in person. Costumes encouraged.
