The GIF booth for Jersey City's waterfront and loft venues
Jersey City is a short hop from Brooklyn, and a lot of what we set up there sits right on the water — Exchange Place, Paulus Hook and Newport are full of event spaces and hotel ballrooms that face the Hudson directly, with the Manhattan skyline doing the work of a backdrop for free. Converted lofts around Journal Square and The Heights bring their own advantage: real ceiling height and open floor plans that make a compact open-air rig like the GIF booth simple to place without eating into the room.
The booth itself is built for speed. A rapid burst becomes a looping GIF in seconds, which matters at a waterfront reception where guests are catching the PATH back to Manhattan right after the toasts — nobody's waiting around for a download link the next day. Boomerangs and stills come out of the same session, and a branded overlay goes on everything, whether that's a couple's names and date for a Paulus Hook wedding or a campaign frame for a Newport office launch.
Setup is about 20 minutes and we arrive a full hour ahead so it's tested and ready — worth planning around if your waterfront reception is timed for golden hour on the water. A trained attendant runs the whole rental, and there's no travel fee for most Jersey City venues, since it's a short hop from our Brooklyn base — we quote it from your venue ZIP code before you book. We're out across Exchange Place, Grove Street, Journal Square and the rest of Jersey City most weekends.

Magic Mirror Brooklyn is Absolutely the BEST thing we added to our wedding reception! People were still talking about how much FUN they had 2 weeks after, they LOVED Vallon and his crew who made everything so much FUN, the keepsake photos were Hilarious & guests stayed WAY later than they would have because we had this UNIQUE booth! Typical photobooths have NOTHING on this Mirror. If I could give a 10 star rating..I would!
Selly & Sherwin
Magic Mirror Brooklyn was incredibly professional and friendly upon booking online, particularly in regards to the rental of the Mirror photo-booth. They worked tirelessly to pull off our vision and went above and beyond throughout the process. On event day, they were professional and had wonderful interactions with each guest who came to get their picture taken.

It was a pleasure doing business with Valen. He was very polite, professional and very accommodating. Him and his assistant had very good energy and kept all of our guests having fun. The table with accessories was kept neat and organized the whole evening. The booth was a big hit in my event! Would definitely hire this company again.

Questions
GIF Photo Booth in Jersey City — FAQ
Is there a travel fee for a GIF booth in Jersey City?
No travel fee for most Jersey City venues — it's a short hop from our Brooklyn base. We quote it from your venue ZIP code before you book, so there's nothing to discover on the invoice afterward.
Does the GIF booth work at a waterfront venue in Exchange Place or Paulus Hook?
Yes. The open-air setup is compact enough to tuck into a ballroom or event space facing the water without blocking the skyline view, and we've loaded into most of the buildings along that stretch of the Hudson.
Can it fit in a Journal Square or Heights loft?
Comfortably. Those converted loft venues tend to have the open floor plan and ceiling height that make setup simple, and the booth itself only needs 8ft x 8ft at minimum.
How fast do guests get their GIF before catching the PATH home?
Seconds. The GIF renders as soon as the burst finishes, and guests send it to their phone by text, email or QR code on the spot — no waiting on a link the next day.
How much space and power does the GIF booth need?
10ft x 10ft is ideal and 8ft x 8ft is workable, with a standard 110V, 5-amp, 3-prong outlet within 15 feet.
Is an attendant included with the rental?
Yes. A trained attendant runs the booth for the full length of your rental, from setup through pack-down, so you don't need to assign anyone from your own team to it.
How long does setup take, and can you time it around golden hour?
Setup takes about 20 minutes, and we arrive a full hour before your scheduled start so it's tested and ready. If your waterfront reception has flexibility on timing, we can work with you to have the booth live for golden hour photos on the water.
Do you carry insurance for Jersey City venues that require a COI?
Yes. We carry a $3 million liability insurance policy. If your waterfront venue or hotel needs a certificate of insurance, let us know before the event and we'll send it over.
