Hiring a photobooth is a little bit like buying a car (but much cheaper).  There are lots of different makes and models available and they come with varying degrees of quality and reliability.  Before hiring any photobooth, we’d recommend you doing a little bit of research first; i.e obtaining customer reviews and photos from previous recent events.

It’s important to know what outcome you desire from a photobooth before you decide to hire.  Is it high quality photos, videos, animations and entertainment….. or are you just looking for a bit of fun?

Anyway, let me get down to it with regards to pricing 🙂

If you shop around (and we recommend that you do) , you may find package available ranging from £200 up to £2000 for a hire. The main thing is that you find the right solution for your event! .

Q: What kind of photobooths do you use?

A: We use high-tech and modern photobooths that are imported from Los Angeles, where they are manufactured. These photobooths are top-of-the-range and feature the latest technology to ensure that your guests have a great experience.

Q: Can the photobooths be adapted to suit my event theme?

A: Absolutely! One of the great things about our photobooths is that they are very versatile and can be adapted to suit most event themes. We can customise the backdrops, print designs, props, animations, and filters to match your event theme. We’ll work with you to create a unique and personalised experience that your guests will love.

Q: Can you vinyl wrap the photobooths to match company branding or event themes?

A: Yes. This is a great way to add a professional touch to your event and make sure that everything looks cohesive and on-brand.

Here are a few photos of our photobooths. As you can see, they are sleek and modern in design, and can be customised to match any event theme. We take pride in providing the highest quality photobooths to our clients, and we’re confident that you and your guests will love them!

Q: What kind of guestbooks do you offer?

A: We offer white or black guest books as standard, but we can also provide guestbooks in different colors or even personalized guestbooks if requested. Our guestbooks are the perfect way to capture memories of your event, with space for instant prints and comments from your guests.

Q: When will I receive my guestbook?

A: At the end of the evening, your guestbook will be full of instant prints and comments from your guests, and it will be handed to you before we leave the event. This means you’ll be able to take it home with you and start enjoying your memories right away!

Q: Why is the guestbook so important?

A: Your guestbook is something that you will treasure forever after your event. It’s a beautiful keepsake that captures the memories and well wishes of your guests, and it’s a wonderful way to relive the fun and excitement of your event for years to come. Whether you’re planning a wedding, birthday party, or corporate event, a guestbook is a must-have addition to your photobooth hire package. It’s also a great way to show off your event to family and friends who couldn’t attend, as they can flip through the pages and see all the fun and excitement that they missed!

We specialise in premium open photobooths.

There are many different types of photobooths available on the market to hire – and we have tried most.  The different types of photobooths you can find out there include Enclosed, Open Booths, Ipad Pods, Mirrors and 360.

The reason that we specialise in Premium Open Photobooths is that in our experience they offer a much better user experience, get used more and have a far superior photo and video quality.

One of the features that I love about the photobooths that we use is that the camera is not static!  If there is a large group photo, the camera zooms out to ensure everyone is in the photo. It also zooms in for more intimate photos if there is a couple in the photobooth.  Also, we don’t chop the heads off tall people, or only get the top of childrens heads as the camera tilts up and down 🙂

You will find that most photobooths have a static camera. This seemingly small difference can have a huge impact on the quality of the photo achieved. Our photobooths also have a retake option.

Our luxury premium flowerwalls are very popular! If you are looking for a flowerwall a big thing to look out for in the photos is that there are no holes between the flowers. These can be seen in many of the panel flowerwalls that are used and promoted as luxury. The flowerwalls that we now use are purchased from ‘The Flowerwall Shop” (www.theflowerwallshop.com) and are the very best on the market and used as permanent fixtures at high end salons and by many influencers. We also have 9 tension backdrops – Pink and White Floral, 2 wooden effect, Gold Sparkly, Silver Sparkly, Red Roses, Black with Gold Stars, Sliver spotty sparkles, blossom trees. In addition these we also have plain white or black backdrops.

Greenscreen is also a popular choice – if you choose Greenscreen you can have multiple digital backgrounds on your photos.

We have lots of different photobooth package options available – here they all are listed below.  If you are looking for something that is not on the list, just get in touch to see if we can help 🙂

Q: What kind of flowerwalls do you offer?

A: We currently have 2 premium luxury flowerwalls available for hire. Our first option is a luscious rose gold flowerwall with white ivory flowers that creates a rich, luxurious atmosphere at any event. Our second option is a green scene greenery hedge that features white roses and wisterias, creating a natural and refreshing backdrop.

Q: What should I look for when hiring a flowerwall?

A: When looking for a flowerwall, it’s important to look for one that has no holes between the flowers. This is a common issue with many panel flowerwalls that are used and promoted as luxury, but they can look cheap and unprofessional. Our flowerwalls are carefully crafted to ensure that there are no gaps between the flowers, creating a seamless and stunning backdrop that will enhance the beauty of your event.

Q: Where do you purchase your flowerwalls from?

A: We purchase our flowerwalls from ‘The Flowerwall Shop’ (www.theflowerwallshop.com), a trusted supplier of high-quality flowerwalls. We believe in using the best products available to ensure that our clients receive a premium experience that they will remember forever.

If you choose to have a photo print design with landscape photos you can get 15 people in the photo. If you have vertical photos you can have approximately 8. As our photobooths are fully managed we can zoom in or out depending on the number of people in the photobooth.

Q: What happens if I need to cancel my booking?

A: We understand that circumstances can change, and we want to make sure that you have the flexibility to make changes if you need to. Unlike most other photobooth companies, if you decide that you would like to cancel your booking with us, you can do so at any point up to 30 days before your event, and we will issue a full refund on your deposit. This gives you peace of mind and ensures that you’re not stuck with a booking that no longer fits your needs.

Q: What if I need to make changes to my booking?

A: We understand that sometimes things come up, and you may need to make changes to your booking. We’re happy to work with you to make changes to your booking as needed. Whether you need to change the date, time, or location of your event, we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs.

Q: How do I contact you if I have questions or concerns?

A: We’re always here to help you with any questions or concerns that you may have. You can contact us by phone, email, or through our website, and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible. We’re committed to providing exceptional service and support to our clients, and we’re always happy to help in any way that we can.

We accept payment via bank transfer, phone / online card payment or paypal. We also accept Amex payments. Details / links will be emailed over to you should you decide to book.

We ask for a deposit payment of 50% on booking. The balance payment is then due thirty days before your event. At this time we’ll also get in touch to finalise your design requests and make any adjustments that you may require, e.g tweaking timings etc.

Gifs and Boomerangs can be included in your package and they really get your guests animated during their time in the photobooth. They are also great for sharing on social media, during or after your event. Animated Gifs and Boomerangs really bring your images to life. They are great for really getting the feel of your guests emotions during their time in the photobooth. Gif and Boomerangs are currently very popular on social media and your guests will share away on their platforms after your event. If you are having greenscreens, the greenscreens of your choice will be used in the Gif / Boomerang backgrounds. If there is a certain theme / style you would like for your gifs thats no problem as all – we can adjust the speed, number of frames and backgrounds to suit your requirements. To really enhance your guests experience and to make sure they have a ‘take away’ we will allocate frames from the gifs / boomerangs and they can also be printed instantly on your print design.

Every person who has their photo taken in the photobooth will receive a photo after their session. If there are twenty people in the photo, they will all get a copy… and extras if requested. Quality Instant Prints are one of the highlights of any photobooth hire. It’s so lovely seeing everyone sharing the photos around in the evening. We want your guests to have as many copies as they need to enhance their experience with the photobooth. Many other photobooth companies limit the prints to 1 per group photo and then one for a guestbook.

We always take a large amount of props and accessories to events. Including hats, wigs, glasses and prop signs. We can also provide personalised prop signs. If there are specific props you would like for your event we can source these for you too.

Black and white photos are currently very popular and are used at many events. We have a huge selection of photo filters that can be selected from on the day or auto applied to your photos if requested. We get quite a few requests for Kardashian style photos – and that’s no problem at all. We will talk you through all the options available and make sure that you get the style that is right for you.

Distance is rarely a problem. We do not charge any extra for bookings that are within 100 miles. We are based at Greenlands Business Centre in Redditch, B98 7HD.

Yes if you already have a guestbook, we would be happy to manage it for you and fill it to the brim with photos and guest messages. I’ve seen some wonderful guestbooks that have been personally designed. If you are doing your own guestbook for the photobooth, make sure that it is ring bound so that it is o.k with the extra thickness with the photobooth photos included.

Yes we can offer key rings as part of your package. Your photo print designs would be adapted so that we can easily use our keyring cutter and slot your photos (double sided) into the keyring holders. They are very popular with guests and a lovely take away. The cost to add keyrings to your package is £1 per keyring. The keyrings that we use are 70 x 45 mm. Q. What print designs do you have? A. We offer a bespoke print design service. Many people like us to match the designs of their invitations etc to their print designs.

As standard we ask for a floor space of 2 metres x 2 metres, but can work with less than this if required. Our Open Photobooths don’t take up much space at all. The space required is for between the photobooth and the backdrop where you and your guests will stand for their photos and videos. Our luxury flowerwalls are 8ft wide and up to 9ft high (they have adjustable height). Our tension backdrops are 8ft x 8ft, or 8ft by 7.5 ft high (these haven’t got adjustable height). We also have adjustable sized frames for GreenScreen and Black or White backdrops. Another option is to go backdrop free – this can work very well if the facing wall is decorated. We can also provide bespoke backdrops or 3D Scenes. We bring a table for the printer and for your guestbook. A small amount of space is required for your prop boxes and accessories too.

All of our booths are fully managed. There are many reasons for this.. but to name a few; we pride ourselves on providing the very best quality photos and video – this means making sure that the lighting is right throughout the night, zooming in and out on photos, guiding your guests and retaking photos when required. We will also fully manage your guestbook to make sure that it is full of photos and lovely messages from your guests.

Just the one. The closer to the photobooth the better. We will liaise with the venue regarding power before your event and we always have extension leads with us. If the plug socket is further than 15 metres away from the booth, we’ll bring our extra long extension cable 🙂 If your event is in a marquee, we would much prefer to get power from the main building if possible. Generators can sometimes cause problems if there are power fluctuations.

Yes you can and we just love doing them. The video messages can be accessed in your online gallery the day after your event. They can also be shared directly from the photobooth to social media platforms or email. The feedback we get after events with regards to their video messages are so heart warming. The video messaging along with the photos will be watched and looked at for the rest of your lives 🙂

Yes, social sharing is becoming more and more popular. You can share to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and email directly from the photobooth. It’s really important with social sharing to check that the venue has good wifi. Sometimes the firewall on the venues wifi can cause issues with sharing straight to the internet from any photobooth. A good questions to ask your venue is if a photobooth provider has done social sharing before from the venue. If it is a problem, the posts will go on to social media the next day once the photobooth is back on our office wifi.

We have access to thousands of Greenscreen Images that can be used. We will talk with you to find out exactly what you are looking for and then get some options straight over to you. Some people really struggle to choose what they would like to have for their greenscreens. We always help by making suggestions and by sending over examples. Popular greenscreens include – favourite holiday destinations, on the beach, flowerwalls, fireworks, rustic themes….. and recently (which I really liked) we used a photo taken at the exact spot where Daniel proposed to Laura 🙂

Set up time is approximately 45 minutes. We set up discretely as to cause no disruption to the flow of your party. Set up could be done quicker, but we like to make sure that everything is just perfect for the start of the hire. We set up the photobooth, back drop and make sure all of the props are arranged nicely. Your guestbook is placed on our table with sharpie pens and prit sticks. As you can appreciate, every venue has different lighting – so during the set up time we will run tests of the photos and videos and adjust our camera and lighting to make sure it is perfect for when the first guest comes into the photobooth.

We always arrive a minimum of an hour before the start time. This ensures that we have plenty of time to set up and be ready for action at the agreed hire time. We inform the venue of our arrival time in advance and speak with them about the logistics. If you would like us to arrive a little earlier to set up before your guests arrive we can do that too.

We have been providing photobooths for many years, so the answer is, probably yes. But if we haven’t, that’s really not a problem. We will liaise with the venue prior to your event to ensure that everything runs smoothly. If you would like us to speak with your venue prior to booking, that’s no problem at all. We will happily contact them to discuss all of the venue requirements i.e. space, documentation required and set up to make sure that everything is in place should you decide to book.
