Packages
What photobooth packages do you offer?
We have three photobooth packages with our deluxe photobooth being our most popular package and the best value for money. It includes a lot of things that the basic photobooth package doesn’t. There’s also our premium photobooth package with classic black and white images paired with elegant photo strip or 6×4″ image designs. If you’re after a simple, no fuss package, check out our basic photobooth package or even explore our GIF Booth packages.

Photobooth
Is your photobooth open or enclosed?
We have both! With our premium or deluxe photobooth package, you can pick either an open or enclosed photobooth. The basic photobooth package comes with an open photobooth.
How does the photobooth work?
The photobooth is very simple to use. You press the start button/touch the screen when you’re ready and then just follow the on screen instructions. That’s it!
Venue
What are the power and space requirements?
A normal powerpoint is required, preferably within 5 metres of where the photobooth will be set-up. The ground must be flat and solid and a minimum floor space of 3x3m is required. For the enclosed photobooth, the ceiling height where we set it up must be at least 2.5m.
When will you set-up and pack-up?
Set-up begins about 1.5-2 hours before the start of your event and pack-up is at the conclusion of your event or the following day, mid-late morning (pack-up time = approx. 45 minutes). These times can be flexible, subject to availability. We may also require access to your venue at a time other than 1.5-2 hours prior to the start time of your event. We always do what we can to accommodate your preferred times.

A normal powerpoint is required for GIF booth events of more than 4 hours, preferably within 5 metres of where the GIF booth will be set-up.
