Photo Booth Hire in Devon, Dorset, Cornwall, Hampshire and beyond
lets answer some questions
We have tried our best here to answer some of the more common questions that we get asked regarding the hire of our booths, or size, or locations covered etc.
As we get asked new or different questions we try to add them, however if you have a question that's just not answered here please feel free to drop us a line and we will do our very best to answer it within 24 hours or so.
Three common questions...
How far in advance should we book this booth?
For prime weekend dates, we recommend 6-12 months. For midweek then 1-3 months.
Of course there are times when we may have a prime Saturday available, so its always worth enquiring with us, and we take bookings up to 18 months in advance
What do the photos look like when they are printed?
This retro Photo Booth produces only the finest, classic, Black & White 'strip' style photos.
They appear, touch dry with a light gloss finish in the photo drop around 25 seconds after you've completed your session and your guests are welcome back as often as they wish
Can you set up in advance of our guests arrival?
If you book this Photo Booth for the All Day Hire option, then thats exactly what we do to minimise any distractions. If you have gone for 2 or 3 hours in the evening but would still like an early set up, thats something we are happy to offer, but there is charge for this. Just ask us when you enquire
How long does the booth run for?
All our Photo Booths are almost always a 3 hour package. We have been in the industry long enough to have figured out what works best, and 3 is the magic number.
There may from time to time be events that require 2 hours, and we aren't against this and perhaps its better for your budget, so we never say never.
If you are having really large guest numbers (200+), in which case we would say talk to us about adding an additional hour or 2.
How many photos are included?
You and your guests are welcome to use the Photo Booth as much as you wish during your hire period.
After each 'session' the booth will print 2 photos, one for those in the picture, and at weddings, one for the guest book. Corporate events and parties where a guest book is less likely to be used, the guests can take both prints away.

What the picture quality like?
We use high end DSLR cameras and studio grade lighting in our photo booths to make sure your pictures pop.
How good are the prints?
We use professional grade sub-dye printers, which produce the prints in around 25 seconds, they are touch dry and with a lovely glossy finish.
We also pop them in a protective sleeve for your guests to take away if you have booked our upgraded guest book package.
Do you supply a guest book?
We do indeed, a neat little 8x8 book, and we also bring along the glue sticks and pens required to make it memorable.
If you wish to provide your own, then please do so, but just let us know so we point your guests to the right place to stick their prints.
There is also the option to add a premium guest book which also includes an additional print and protective sleeves for your guests prints.
Do you include props?
Of course, for many a photo booth just isn't the same without a bunch of props.
We have though moved away from things like wigs and hats in the last few years, and now generally just offer fabulous word props and picture frames.
If however, a silly wig is just what your after, let us know and we will raid our stock boxes!
Can I supply my own props?
Absolutely!
What is a naked booth?
We have seen a huge rise in the number of events (mainly weddings) that prefer a booth with no props. So we call them 'Naked'.
Some people just cant get enough of a silly prop, others (ourselves included) think the images are so much nicer, cleaner and more creative when props aren't there. It is however, always your choice and we go with what you want!
How much do you charge?
All the photo booths on our website display 'Prices From'. We say from to allow us to adjust them due to longer travelling distance. A quick email to us and we will however give you a firm and final price.
How many people can fit 'in' the booth?
Each booth varies slightly in its capacity. Take a look at the FAQ page Sizing, Space & Stats for the particulars of your booth
Can the Photo Booth go outside?
This is never a clear cut answer.
If on the day, the weather is glorious, then sure, why not, just make sure we have some power. If the weather is a bit 'iffy' then the team member setting up will make that decision at the time.
Its worth noting that a back up space indoors is a good idea. We do live in the UK.
If you have a covered space, like an area on the side of a barn etc, then we are happy to set up there no problem, again, so long as we have power.
If you're unsure on this, just drop us a line.
Do we get a copy?
Along with your guest book, we open an online gallery for you (and your guests) to access. Its normally live within 48 of your event.
You'll be able to download all the pictures taken on the night straight to your device. Its super simple and great if you'd like to share them digitally with friends or family who couldn't ben there at the event.
How long is the hire?
Our Selfie Pods are generally available as 3 or4 hour packages, and an all day option which is ideal for larger events or those with a more relaxed schedule.
Do you include props?
Yes. All our Selfie Pod bookings come with a box of props to help add to the shenanigans.
Is it manned?
We do run our Selfie Pods both manned & un-manned. It really depends on factors like location, travel distance etc. Where possible, we like to man it, make sure everything runs smoothly
How much are they to hire?
These are great value, and start from just £225.
The price varies depending mainly on your event location and for how long you would like the hire. Always drop us a line if your unsure and would like a definite cost.
How far do you travel?
We are based in Dorset, but happily and regular cover....
Devon, Hampshire, Surrey, Somerset & Wiltshire.
We also include frequently cover London and aren't afraid of Cornwall either!
For larger events we will cover anywhere in the UK
Do you have Insurance?
As a professional company we do have everything you or your venue may require.
We have £10 Million in Public Liability Insurance, which is the biggie, plus PAT certificates, Risk Assessments etc. They are all downloadable from our website.
Do we need to sign a contract?
Not as such.
