Sometimes photo booth pictures all kind of look the same. Of course there are different people and perhaps different accessories and different poses, but really, everybody is just looking at the camera happy, cute and a bit silly.

At our birthday party, my boyfriend and I presented our guests with a picture challenge. We had little notes with silly picture ideas that they could act out. Although the quality of our picture booth wasn’t the best (bad lighting, average camera, messy surroundings) it did provide us with a pretty funny picture gallery of our guests to look back on.

If you are looking for a way to spice things up a little bit in your party photo booth, giving your guests a picture challenge is a great way. Not only does this result in some pretty hilarious and memorable pictures of your friends, it also works as an icebreaker that makes people who don’t know each other interact with each other more easily. I was really surprised by the originality of people’s pictures and their willingness to act crazy.

So if you are hosting a party that includes a photo booth, here is a list with 60 suggestions for unforgettable pictures.

 ♥ You in a picture with someone else in which you pretend to be ballerina dancers. ♥ You in a picture with someone else in which you pretend to be famous rappers. ♥ You in a picture in which you hold as many/big objects in your hands as possible. ♥ You in a picture with a poker face while something absurd is happening in the background. ♥ You in a picture with a strange object on your head (a wig is not strange enough). ♥ You in a picture with all the women at the party in it. ♥ You in a picture with someone standing upside down. ♥ You in a picture with all the men at the party in it. ♥ You in a picture in which you re-enact a famous painting. ♥ You in a picture in which you switch the drink with someone else’s drink, without him/her noticing. ♥ You in a picture with as many people with names starting with a ‘J’ as possible. ♥ You in a picture in which everyone has fingers in their nose (not necessarily their own). ♥ You in a picture with the most attractive single girl on the party. ♥ You in a picture with the most attractive single guy on the party. ♥ You in a picture with four others in which you spell ‘Party’ with your bodies. ♥ You in an epic picture with the edible nacho hat. ♥ You in a picture with only people who are wet from the pool. ♥ You in a picture in which you get a piggyback ride. ♥ You in a picture that makes a statement about how you feel about the party. ♥ You in a picture with someone you haven’t met before the party. ♥ You in a picture taken just after you quickly steal and drink someone’s entire drink by their surprise (preferably a full glass/bottle). ♥ You in a picture dancing with others. ♥ You in a picture with others in which you dance the Macarena. ♥ You in a picture with only non-Dutchies. ♥ You in a picture with others making silly faces. ♥ You in a picture with somebody else in which you mimic each other’s posture and facial expression. ♥ You in a picture in which you are carried by 3 other people. ♥ You with 3 others in a boy band picture. ♥ You in a picture with someone who is taller than you, but who must appear shorter than you. ♥ You in a picture in which you wear a piece of clothing of someone else (with or without their knowledge). ♥ You in a picture in which you hug someone. ♥ You in a picture with many others in a big group hug. ♥ You in a picture pretending to be a lead singer in a rock band with 2 others. ♥ You in a picture with someone else in which you both jump. ♥ You in a picture with someone else in which you pretend to be in a karate battle. ♥ You in a picture with others pretending to be in a bobsleigh. ♥ You in a picture in which at least 3 people touch your head. ♥ You in a picture with someone else in an imaginary slow-motion pillow fight. ♥ You in a picture with someone else pretending to ride on a tandem bike. ♥ You in a picture with others in a polonaise. ♥ You in a picture with someone else pretending to be an asparagus (or other type of preferred vegetable). ♥ You in a picture in which you feeds someone else. ♥ You in a picture having a staring competition with someone else. ♥ You in a picture running away for someone else acting scary. ♥ You in a picture wearing as many clothing items as possible (if possible of others). ♥ You in a picture with as many people who wear glasses as possible, without them knowing the (real) reason for joining the picture. ♥ You in a picture with someone else pretending to be monkeys. ♥ You in a picture with someone else, both standing on one leg as long as possible. ♥ You in a picture with someone else in which you compete on who can make the best split. ♥ You in a picture with someone else sticking out your tongue at each other. ♥ You in a picture with someone else posing with a typical duck face. ♥ You in a picture in which you dance with someone from the other gender as if you were 12 at a school party (awkward long stretched arms and barely touching or looking at each other). ♥ You in a picture with someone else pretending to be an abstract sculpture. ♥ You in a picture eating someone else’s head off. ♥ You in a picture in which you compete with someone else who can hold his/her drink the highest (help of others is permitted). ♥ You in a picture competing with someone else who can hold his/her leg the highest. ♥ You in a picture with someone else, both pretending to be fish. ♥ You in a picture with someone else in which one is a cowboy and the other an indian. ♥ You in a picture with 2 others with only 3 hands and 2 feet on the ground. ♥ You in a picture with someone else pulling each others hair (preferably without hurting each other).

    I love it! there’s to many to choose from. We might need some sort of checklist to tick them all off.

    I’m usually not a big fan of photo booths. However, I love these ideas. My favorite would have to be the one with the edible nacho hat.
