Frequently Asked Questions about our Vancouver Photobooth Rentals
What is a photobooth?
You’ve seen them in the malls, and in airports – well now you can rent one for your own special events. Our Vancouver Photobooth allows your guests to step inside, close the curtain, take photos and print them instantly on site. The photobooth contains a large screen with a countdown timer to allow guests adequate time to adjust for their picture. It takes 4 consecutive photographs, which print out instantly on a convenient 4×6 postcard. Our photobooth is a fun, unique, and memorable way to entertain your guests!
Who should rent a photobooth?
Anyone! Our photobooth can be rented for any occasion, but is always a big hit at weddings, anniversary parties, family re-unions, dry grads, fundraisers, and corporate events.
What is included in my rental?
Unlimited instant prints for your guests
A custom logo on each print (your wedding date or event name)
A DVD containing JPEGs of all the print outs.
Your choice of black & white or colour pictures
Delivery, set up and take down
A friendly and professional photobooth attendant
How much does it cost?
We offer competitive rates! Our photobooth is available for up to 8 hours at a rate of $200 per hour. The booth must be booked for a minimum of 3 hours. Overtime rentals are available at a rate of $325 per hour.
Do my guests have to put money into the photobooth to operate it?
No. The photobooth has a simple, illuminated “START” button which is all you need to push to
operate it. You receive unlimited photographs in the rental rate.
Do you offer guestbooks?
Yes! Guestbooks are great heirlooms but are often rarely looked at after the wedding, but by creating a completely unique photo guestbook, you, your family, and friends will enjoy looking through it time and time again! We provide guestbooks for your guests to write in and attach their photograph to. Each page is individually removable for convenience, and allows guests to easily create their own personalized page. Guestbooks are $125, and include all the supplies your guests need to make one-of-a-kind pages (photo corners, photo-safe glue, pens) We include enough pages for approximately 75-100 guests. Additional pages may be purchased at $1.00 each.
Can I order extra copies of the DVD?
Absolutely! Extra copies are available for $75 each.
Can I customize the backdrop?
Sure! We can customize our backdrop to match your special events colours starting at $25.
Do you rent costumes?
We’ve been told on numerous occasions that we have the best costume/prop boxes around! We offer a pirate theme, an 80s theme and a “tickle trunk” with assorted masks, hats, accessories and props. Costume rentals are $100 per rental.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Summer is by far our busiest season, if your event is between May and September we recommend booking at least 4 or 5 months ahead. For weekday and off-season events we recommend booking at least 1 month in advance to ensure your date is secured. You will need to put down a 25% deposit or pay in full to reserve your date. All of our reservations are done on a first come, first serve basis.
How many people can fit in the photobooth?
We would love to fit your whole party in the booth! The booth will fit 3 people comfortably, but we have had as many as 8 smiling faces in the booth.
What is the footprint of the photobooth?
The photobooth is 7 ft high x 6.5ft long x 3 ft wide. We are able to setup in any room, since our booth comes apart and locks together. All we require is one standard power outlet.
Can the booth be set up anywhere?
As long as you have room for us we can pretty much set up on any flat surface. If your event is outdoors the booth must remain covered & protected from the elements at all times and therefore must go under a tarp or tent in the event it is raining or snowing. We also require a standard power outlet to operate. The booth generally takes 30-45 minutes to set up (depending on how easy it is to access the venue) and about 20-30 minutes to strike down. Delivery, set up & strike down are all included in our hourly rental rates.
How many photos an hour can we take?
As many as you can, our rentals include unlimited prints. If you want to maximize its use we recommend making an announcement at the start of your event.
What is the print-out like?
You will get an awesome 4×6 postcard style print with 4 fabulous photographs printed right on it. We use a process called “dye-sublimination” instead of a traditional ink jet so you don’t have to wait for your print to dry and it will never run. As soon as it comes out you can put your fingers all over it! Our prints are protected to minimize UV & moisture damage.
