I am surprised that Humuhumu didn't come up with this one, at our last Luau, we set up a "photo booth" so our guests could have their picture taken ala "Tiki". I used props at hand, a large tiki carving, lots of tropical flowers, fake and gaudy of course, Tiki torches, and lots of Lei's, straw hats and a awful assortment of grass skirts and coconut bra's We used a digital camera with a good flash, suggest setting it up days ahead and fool around with it to get it right, we printed them on the spot, we had made before-hand, shell, sand and seaweed frames that we got at garage sales, we painted them to look like bamboo and then decorated. The whole thing, albeit had some hours involved was very cheap. We had them do the picture first thing to get them in the "mood" and they picked up their pictures right away. Who doesn't love to see themselves especially dressed up silly? Great crowd breaker especially for your non-tiki friends. One caveat, someone has to love doing the booth as they will be there all night. It's fun going over someones house and seeing the photo displayed proudly.
Here is a picture we took at a beach party photo booth,
