We were lucky to catch up with Marco Buenrostro recently and have shared our conversation below.
Marco, so excited to have you with us today. So much we can chat about, but one of the questions we are most interested in is how you have managed to keep your creativity alive.
Absolutely, keeping the creative spark alive in the dynamic world of photo booths is both exciting and essential. At MBP Photo Booth, we thrive on staying at the forefront of industry trends, and it’s a lot of fun!
To fuel our creativity, I firmly believe in continuous education. I stay well-informed by attending Photo Booth summits and conferences around the globe, like the one I recently had the pleasure of attending in London. These events provide a fantastic platform to network, learn from the best in the business, and discover innovative ideas.
Additionally, I make it a point to enroll in online courses hosted by top experts in the Photo Booth industry. Learning from the best not only enhances our skills but also inspires us to think outside the box and explore new possibilities.
In this way, we not only keep our creativity alive but also ensure that our clients receive the most innovative and captivating photo booth experiences. It’s all about staying on the cutting edge while having a blast along the way!
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
I’ve had the privilege of running MBP Photo Booth for nearly 8.5 years, and I can honestly say that my passion for what I do continues to grow with each passing day. It’s not just about capturing moments at parties, weddings, and corporate events; it’s so much more than that.
At MBP Photo Booth, our primary focus is on people – connecting with them and making each individual feel beautiful, confident, and, most importantly, having a blast while we photograph them. It’s a unique experience, and we take great pride in creating an environment where everyone can let loose and enjoy themselves.
What sets us apart is our commitment to giving back. It’s not just about getting paid to have fun taking photos; it’s about giving back to our community and those in need. We actively participate in charitable events and often donate our services to organizations that are doing incredible work. It’s our way of making a positive impact beyond the lens.
Moreover, at MBP Photo Booth, we’re all about putting a modern twist on the traditional photo booth experience. We stay at the cutting edge of technology, ensuring our setups are sleek and minimalist, seamlessly blending into any event. We believe that a photo booth should never be an eyesore; it should complement the atmosphere and enhance the overall experience for everyone involved.
In a nutshell, MBP Photo Booth is not just a Photo Booth rental service – it’s an opportunity to create memorable moments, give back to the community, and embrace the future of photo booth technology. It’s my absolute joy to be a part of this journey, and I look forward to many more years of fun, connection, and innovation.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Reflecting on my journey, I believe three key elements have been profoundly impactful:
1. Continuous Learning and Innovation: Throughout my career, my unwavering desire to excel and stay at the forefront of the Photo Booth industry has been a driving force. This led me to consistently research the latest trends and innovations in the field. I’ve always strived to be the best and often aimed to be the pioneer in introducing new ideas to my city.
2. Networking and Building Connections: Networking has been instrumental in my journey. Actively seeking opportunities to connect with industry leaders, fellow business owners, and event planners has been a consistent focus. This has not only expanded my professional circle but also created opportunities for collaboration and growth within our respective industries. I firmly believe in the power of community over competition and willingly share my knowledge with other Photo Booth business owners to elevate the industry’s standards in our city.
3. Advice for Aspiring Photo Booth Entrepreneurs: To those starting or in the early stages of their Photo Booth rental business, my advice is simple yet crucial. Firstly, don’t give up, despite the competition. Remember that it’s not just about the machine but the experience you offer. Know your worth and avoid underselling your services. In a market where quality and unique experiences are highly valued, understanding your value and delivering an exceptional service will set you apart and lead to success.
In essence, my journey has been shaped by a commitment to learning, networking, and fostering a sense of community within the industry. For those embarking on a similar path, these principles can be the foundation for your own success and growth.
