Wedding Photobooth Strips: Clear Stickers Before the Couple's Album
Strip hearts, props, and booth UI from a print strip you already shot. Keep faces honest — this is overlay cleanup, not a new portrait.

The album still has last night's heart pack
Couples want a few booth frames in the wedding album and the thank-you gallery. The only file on the USB is a strip with hearts, a "JUST MARRIED" GIF, and a poll chip over a grandparent's face. Reshooting the booth is impossible. The job is to clear graphical stickers from frames you shot or that the couple licensed — not to invent a second guest, not to reshape a face, and not to tour every cleanup tool. Depop Story stickers are a different listing job; this page is a wedding photobooth still.
Before
After
Paint the sticker; keep the face
Upload one frame from the strip, not the whole contact sheet if it is tiny. Brush only sticker graphics — hearts, sparkles, booth UI buttons. Zoom to 100% on skin and clothing. You want the original grain, not a plastic patch. Do not brush the face. If a typed date or hashtag is lettering rather than a sticker, that is a text pass after the graphics. Mixing the two is why a cheek still shows a yellow smear.
Album crop versus the strip
Album pages often want a square or 4:5 from one frame, not the whole 2×3 strip. Crop after the overlay is gone. Uploads here accept JPG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF up to 10MB and 6000×6000 px. A 2400 px JPEG under 4MB typically returns in under 60 seconds. Skip the tool when stickers cover most of a face or the only file is a 400 px screenshot of the strip. Those need a higher-res export from the booth software.
Rights and honesty
Only edit photos from an event you photographed or that the couple cleared for the album. Clearing booth stickers on your own job is production. Lifting another photographer's gallery is not. Do not reconstruct a smile the guest did not make. Name files `booth-frame-04-clean.jpg` versus `booth-frame-04-as-shot.jpg`.
When the thank-you gallery is due and the best laugh still has a heart pack across the lapel, clear the stickers, export one square, and leave the people as they were.
