Hi, I'm Steven Murphy, and I founded Murphy's Photo Booth to bring a new level of quality and engagement to your event. While many people see a photo booth as just a fun sideline, I see it as a chance to apply over two decades of technical photography and event leadership experience.

The Foundation: Photography Since 2000

My journey in photography began in 2000, with event experience following closely behind in 2001. I didn't start with digital; I was trained in the classic art of film—learning the meticulous process of dip-and-dunk chemical processing of my own film and negatives. This deep understanding of light, contrast, and chemistry is why I insist on excellent lighting and producing sharp, high-quality photos for every single booth strip we print.

The Event Leader: More Than Just a Photographer

For 13 summers, I gained invaluable event and people-management experience working at a scout camp, taking on roles from the maintenance department all the way up to Program Director. This experience taught me how to run a smooth operation, manage large groups of people, and—most importantly—how to create engaging, memorable, and interactive experiences for every participant.
