Springfield Residents Bring TapSnap Phototainment to Union County

Photos and videos can be decorated, printed or shared via social media instantly.

Longtime Springfield residents Nancy and Silvio Di Fiore are bringing the excitement of TapSnap phototainment to events in Union County and surrounding areas. 

The Di Fiores discovered TapSnap, an interactive, open-concept photo kiosk, featuring sophisticated, state-of-the-art technology, while researching possible franchises. 

"We were looking to supplement our income by investing in something that would be new, fun and exciting to be a part of," Silvio explained. "TapSnap was a great fit for us and were quickly sold on the concept after visiting the corporate office in Vancouver, Canada. It's like interacting with a huge iPad."

Ideal for mitzvahs, weddings, proms, and corporate events, the system is now available to residents, corporations and event planners throughout New Jersey, the Di Fiores explained, adding that TapSnap’s calendar is filling up quickly. Customizable packages start at $600.

“TapSnap is a completely new kind of entertainment for events and parties,” said Nancy. "It creates this dynamic by allowing event guests to take their photos with a simple tap of a fingertip on a 42-inch multi-touch screen. Then, they can draw, add personal messages to their pictures, decorate them with digital props, use a green screen to change the photo background and instantly connect to social media where guests can share pictures and videos via e-mail, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. You can create prints instantly."

“This is a perfect time for TapSnap," Silvio added. "Recent advances in multi-touch technology made it possible to create a larger-than-life, incredibly responsive photo system with the power to capitalize on the surging popularity of social media. Social media creates an insatiable demand for unique photos to share, and TapSnap allows event organizers to feed that demand while giving guests an unforgettable entertainment experience.”
