Kardashian Glam vs. Black & White Glam: What’s the Difference?

If you’re looking for a photo booth that makes people look like a million bucks in Scottsdale or Phoenix, you’ve probably come across terms like Kardashian Glam and Black & White Glam. These two styles have taken over weddings, galas, and celebrity events, but let’s clear things up—they are not the same thing. Let’s break it down so you can pick the right level of fabulous for your event.

What is the Kardashian Glam Photo Booth Look?

The Kardashian Glam style—yes, inspired by those Kardashians—is all about ultra-polished, airbrushed perfection. This look is often described as:

  • Soft and muted: The background is usually a grey or desaturated tone, making everything look moody and neutral.
  • Highly edited skin: The airbrush is on full blast, making everyone’s skin so smooth they might as well be made of porcelain. Wrinkles? Never heard of them.
  • Desaturated tones: Natural skin tones get dialed down a bit to create that signature muted, blended aesthetic.
  • Minimal contrast: The goal is to keep things looking effortlessly sleek—no harsh shadows, just pure smoothness.

While this style is popular, Spectacle Photo Booths does not offer Kardashian Glam. We keep things real, timeless, and effortlessly stunning with Black & White Glam instead.

Black & White Glam is often mistaken for Kardashian Glam, but it’s got a whole different energy. This look is:

  • High contrast: Unlike the Kardashian style, Black & White Glam features a crisp white backdrop and deep black shadows, making your guests truly stand out.
  • Classic and timeless: Think old Hollywood meets modern editorial. It’s effortlessly cool without feeling overdone.
  • Refined, but real: We still apply a glam filter, but instead of going full wax museum, we keep skin texture looking natural and flawless without erasing your face.

A Note on Backdrop & Lighting

With Black & White Glam, our goal is to create a bright white backdrop. However, let’s talk reality—while prints will appear perfectly white, the online version can look a little different depending on your screen and how the light hits the backdrop. If the flash doesn’t reach the edges, you might see some grey. No, your screen isn’t broken—it’s just physics.

Why Choose Black & White Glam for Your Event in Scottsdale or Phoenix?

If you want something that feels like a timeless Hollywood portrait but with a modern twist, Black & White Glam is the way to go. It’s stylish, bold, and makes your guests look incredible without making them look like a completely different person.
