Photo Booth Hire – Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to set up the booth?

We normally arrive around one hour before your hire time begins to set up the photo booth. The setup itself usually takes around 30–45 minutes, but we like to allow extra time to ensure everything is perfect before your guests start using the booth.

Setup time is not included in your hire period. If your venue requires us to arrive much earlier than usual, an idle fee of $40 per hour may apply.

How much space do you need for setup?

For our enclosed photo booth, we require approximately 2 metres x 2 metres of space, with room for a small table where we place the props or guestbook.

For our open photo booth and glam booth, we recommend allowing around 2.5 metres x 2.5 metres to give guests plenty of room to enjoy the photos.

We will also require:

• access to standard power

• a sheltered area for all events

How many people can fit in the photo booth?

Our enclosed booth comfortably fits up to 2–4 people at a time.

Our open photo booth and glam booth allows for much larger group shots, often 8–10 people or more, depending on the available space.

Can we customise the photo strip design?

Absolutely! Your photo strip design can include names, dates, logos, messages and colour themes.

You can choose from our existing template designs or we can create something completely customised to suit your event style.

What backdrops do you offer?

For our open photo booth, you’ll have access to over 40 backdrop options.  For our enclosed photo booth we have 3 different curtain backdrops to choose from. If you’re looking for something specific, we can also arrange custom backdrops through our sister company, Photobooth Design Co.

Do you charge travel fees?

We provide free setup and delivery within 35 km from Caroline Springs, Victoria 3023.

A travel fee may apply for events outside this area. Please contact us for a quote if your venue is further away.

What is required to secure a booking?

To book your photo booth, simply complete our online booking form.  We will respond by email with a quote, and once you confirm that you'd to proceed, we'll send you an invoice and booking confirmation. A $300 deposit is required to secure your date. The remaining balance is due two weeks before your event.

Will our online gallery stay available forever?

After your event, we will send you a link to your online photo gallery where you can download all your digital photos.  Please note that we busy at events during the weekend, and if your event is held between Friday, Saturday, Sunday, we'll endeavour to send you your event gallery link on Monday/Tuesday.

The gallery is available for 3 months, so we recommend downloading your photos during this time. Once the gallery expires it is automatically removed and cannot be retrieved.

What happens after we book?

Once your booking is confirmed we’ll work with you to customise your photo strip design and secure your backdrop choice.

Closer to the event date we will:

• coordinate bump-in details with the venue

• send a final confirmation email to ensure everything runs smoothly.

What if my venue has stairs and no lift?

If your event space is located upstairs without lift access, please let us know when booking.

For safety reasons, a member of your party or venue staff will need to assist our attendant with carrying equipment upstairs and also help in bringing the equipment downstairs. This helps ensure the safety of our team and equipment.  If there isn't anyone available to assist we will not be able to setup.

Can the photo booth be set up outdoors?

Outdoor setups are possible as long as the area is fully sheltered. We require complete shelter, including a roof and at least 3 x walls.

The booth must be protected from:

• rain

• wind

• direct sunlight

We will also require access to power nearby.
