How does the rental work?
How does the rental work?
Our photo booth couldn't be easier! We come set it up, run the booth, keep the line moving making sure everyone has an amazing time. Then we tear it down, pack it away and go. There is absolutely nothing on your end that you have to do, we bring everything and do everything! It is a stress-free setup for you.
What resources does your photo booth need?
What resources does your photo booth need?
We need a space of about 8" wide by 6" deep, with a ceiling height of at least 9". We also need access to power. Internet is a plus, but we bring our own if the event venue's wifi is unavailable.
Does the setup time come out of our rental time?

This setup and teardown time is separate from the hours of service we provide to ensure we avoid any disruptions during your event. But please note, it takes about an hour to set up the photo booth and another half an hour to tear it down.
What if I need more or less time than your package allows? Is there a price break?
What if I need more or less time than your package allows? Is there a price break?
To keep things simple and cost-effective, the listed time is just a guideline for most events. I know every event is unique, so I don’t want time limits to affect your decision to book. My pricing is straightforward and stays the same whether you need 2 hours or 5 hours. The only exception is for events longer than 5 hours, where additional time is charged at $100 per hour.
What if my event is over 5 hours or all day long?
What if my event is over 5 hours or all day long?
The listed time for most events is just a guideline to keep things simple and cost-effective. I understand every event is different, so I don’t want time limits to discourage you from booking. However, to avoid all-day commitments, there will be an extra charge of $100 per hour over 5 hours to account for the additional time and costs on my end. You can add this extra time at booking or I’ll adjust the booking as needed afterward.
Do we need to provide a backdrop?

Of course! If marble backgrounds aren’t your thing, you’re more than welcome to provide your own. Just make sure it’s around 6-7 feet wide and 6-7 feet tall. Need help or looking for more backdrop ideas? Let me know—I’d be happy to brainstorm with you!

Spam inquiries often involve attempts to book photo booth services by sending a check, overpaying, and then requesting a cash refund. To avoid this, I only accept checks on a case-by-case basis after the client has paid the non-refundable fee online and we’ve worked together leading up to the event. Thank you for understanding.
