Dan's Photo Booth: planning your event

How many hours will you need?

We suggest planning on approximately 50 guests per hour through the PhotoBooth. This will vary depending on how many people use the booth individually, as couples, or as small groups. Our booth can accommodate up to about 6 people at once. Everyone in each photo receives their own Photo Strip, automatically and at no extra charge.

Please note that our 1½ hour sessions are only available for small parties such as birthdays and graduations. They're limited to around 60 guests, and only include 1 operator instead of the usual 2.

  • Our time to set-up and break-down are not counted against your operating time.
  • Advance set-up is available for $75/hour. Add to the beginning of a session when set-up would otherwise be a distraction.
  • For late-night operation, an additional fee of $35/hour applies for hours past 11:00 p.m.

Setting up

The Photo Booth requires an area approximately 5'×8' and access to grounded (3 prong) 120v AC power. While setting up the booth we require an area approximately 8'x12', as we have to assemble various items. We arrive approximately an hour prior to your scheduled start time to assemble the booth. We cannot set-up the booth with guests nearby, so please discuss your timing and location with us. We suggest placing the booth in a very visible location, with room for a small line to form. If you are having a Keepsake Book, we will require a small table, and sufficient room around it for guests.

The booth must be set up indoors. We may be able to accommodate an outdoor location provided it is under cover from the elements, and on a paved surface.

The booth is on wheels, and while it is portable we cannot carry it up stairs. Please ensure your venue has handicap access to your area, and most importantly, that they will allow us to use it.
