Photo Booth Hire FAQs
The answers to our most common questions
Photo Booth FAQs| Your Questions Our Answers
How do I confirm a booking?
Just flick us back a quick email letting us know how many hours you wish to book for and you wish to add a backdrop or photo album. We will book it in for you and send you through a booking email with your invoice(s) and a link to the booking checklist. The booking checklist is where you can provide all the information that we need to make sure that your booking is a success.
How does payment work?
We require a $150 deposit to confirm your booking. This is due within 7 days unless requested otherwise. The remaining payment is due 7 days prior to the event date. This can be paid in full of instalments any time up until the due date.
Does the price include GST?
Yes. All prices are inclusive of GST.
What happens if I need to cancel my booking?
Your booking deposit is generally non-refundable. This is because we have held a booth available for you. If you cancel early (a couple of months out) and we have not been fully booked, we will refund the deposit. We will refund the final payment portion of your booking up to 7 days prior to the booking date if you have to cancel.
How long do I get the photo booth for?
Does the photo booth provide physical prints on the spot?
Yes. You get 2 (6×2 inch) photo strips each time the booth is used.
How do I select or create a photo strip design?
When you complete your booking checklist there is a section related to the photo strip design. You can either select from one of our standard designs and provide any changes you wish or you can provide either imagery or instructions for us to create a custom design for you. Alternatively, you can request our template to create the photo strip design yourself. We can send you a photoshop template or a link to our template on Canva.
What do the photo strip printouts look like?
Here’s a few examples to give you an idea of the layout. The position of the photos is fixed but the area around them can be completely customised. We have a bunch of themed collections that you can view HERE.
Is there an attendant with the booth?
No. We do not provide attendants with our booths. Our staff deliver and setup the booth and then leave it for you to enjoy. There is no need for an attendant as the booth is very simple to use and very reliable. We do provide 24/7 support if you have an issue and will send a staff member straight out to you if required. This has multiple benefits; more flexible delivery and setup timing, no awkward attendant cramping your guests style, more competitive pricing. We can sometimes provide an attendant by special request. This is charged at $50 per hour.
Does the booth come with props?
No, we do not provide props as part of our service. Props don’t suit every event so we have left them out so we can provide the best pricing possible for everyone. If you are wanting props we recommend Look Sharp or any other variety store where you can generally put together a good set of props for around $30-$40.
Do I get digital copies of the photos?
Yes. All original photos as well as the print images are provided in an online gallery for yourself and your guests to access, view, and download. We also provide you with a link to download all of the photos and print images in a single folder.
How many photos can we take?
The photo booth takes 3 photos during each session. There is no limit to the number of sessions you can do during your hire period. We ensure that the printer has sufficient paper to provide printing for your entire hire period.
Does the booth come with a backdrop?
Our booths are an open style photo booth. You can either have them open to the room or directed towards a backdrop. You can provide your own backdrop, utilise a feature of the venue, or add one of our backdrops to your booking for $80. We have the 4 backdrop options below to choose from.
Can we get a photo album?
Yes, we have leather albums with photo strip sleeves. Guests can insert a photo strip and write a message to go with it in metallic pens which are included. The photo album can be added to your booking for $120.
How many people can fit in a photo?
Groups of up to 10-12 people can squeeze into a photo. Even larger groups can be captured if the booth is set up open to the room.
What requirements are there? i.e. Space, power etc.
All that we require is a level and stable area to put the booth on, protection from the weather (rain and/or direct sunlight), and a single standard power socket. We carry plenty of extensions cables. The area required for the booth depends on how you wish to set it up. If you have it pointing out into the room then you only need around 1m by 1m. If you wish to point the booth towards a backdrop then you will need to allow around 2.5m by 2.5m.
