The most popular photo booth hire for a wedding or a party is our Party Photo Booth, mainly due to the fact it can hold large groups of people and has a build in touch screen monitor, the filters are getting increasingly popular as an alternative.

We take a $100 deposit to secure your photo booth hire date.

We try not to and mainly do not but we will make this clear if we are at time of quoting, our ethos is to quote everybody as low cost as we can.

We always have a member of staff attend your event to take care of everything for you. You don’t only hire a booth from us, you also hire a complete service. Our Booth attendant will also encourage people to leave a comment in your guest book and hand that to you at the end of the night all made up.

The Party photo Booths measure are adjustable 6.5 (wide) x 6.5 (long) 8 (high)

It can take us anywhere from 30-45 minutes to set up, we will arrive on site at least one hour before your photo booth hire time is due to start, this time is included and is not counted as part of your run time.

Sometimes it not always possible to set up or break down the photo booth directly before or after an event. For example, if you require the booth setting up at 6pm but do not want it running until 9pm, this would be charged at 3 idle hours on top of the hire costs. Idle hours are charged at $20 per hour.

Yes you will receive a USB drive with all the hi res images taken in the booth after your event (the individual shots along with a copy of the photo booth prints). Also, 24 hours after your event your photos will be available in our gallery for your guest to download.

Yes, after your event we create gallery link for you and your guests to view the images.

Our photo booths use high end professional SLR cameras resulting in sharp quality pictures.

Each photo booth has a touch screen, your guests get to choose from 3 options, prints in colour, prints in black & white and video message. The booth is fully automatic and will switch between the two modes instantly so your guests can  have their prints and leave you a video message whilst in the photo booth. We then make you a email movie in high definition to watch at home. We can disable the feature also if you don’t require video messaging.

We use thermal dye sublimation printers, the same as the photo processing companies use, the best in the business. The prints are fast, touch dry and water proof immediately.

We set the photo booth up to print 2 copies of each picture (both personalised with your name and wedding/party date), 1 for your guests and 1 for your guest book. We bring  gel pens and encourage your guests to leave messages next to their pictures. We will ensure the book is completed to a high standard and we hand deliver it to you at the end of the photo booth hire in perfect order.
