San Antonio Magazine threw its very first Burger Bash at St. Paul Square, and we got to be part of it! More than 400 guests came out to try burger bites from 10 local restaurants, and a lot of them stopped by our booth on the way.

A Sponsor Photo Booth for National Financial Alliance

National Financial Alliance was one of the event's sponsors, and they brought the photo booth to Burger Bash guests. Every guest walked away with a branded photo print carrying both the Burger Bash and NFA logos, so the sponsor stayed in the picture long after the last burger.

That's what a good sponsor activation does. Guests get something fun they actually want to keep, and the brand gets to be part of the memory.

The Setup

We brought our white open air ring light photo booth and set it up in front of the San Antonio step and repeat. The printer sat on a wine barrel, which fit the St. Paul Square vibe perfectly. Open air worked great here. Groups could pile in, friends could jump in last second, and everyone in line could see the fun happening.

Branded Photo Prints Guests Took Home

The prints were co-branded with Burger Bash and NFA, and they printed on the spot. Burgers in one hand, print in the other. That's a good day.

People's Choice Winner

Katerina Restaurant & Bar took home the People's Choice trophy for its Black Truffle Burger. The trophy even made an appearance at the step and repeat.
