Frequently Asked Questions

For most photo booth experiences, we recommend approximately 8 ft × 8 ft of clear space. This gives guests plenty of room to interact with the booth, pose comfortably, and enjoy the experience. Working with a smaller space? No problem. Some of our experiences can operate with a smaller footprint. Tell us about your venue and available space, and we'll recommend the best setup.

Most of our photo booth experiences require access to a standard electrical outlet near the setup area. Power requirements may vary for larger or specialty experiences, so we'll confirm everything with you before your event.

Outdoor setups require a safe, level, dry area with adequate protection from rain, excessive wind, direct weather exposure, and other conditions that could affect the equipment. We'll review the location with you ahead of time to make sure the setup is appropriate.
