FAQ
How does the photo booth work?
Guests step up to a sleek open iPad booth, tap to capture, and get a set of polished photos — delivered to their phone by text and to a shared online gallery within seconds.
What about AI photo styles?
Optional. AI styles start at $0.06 per photo — you choose which styles to offer and set a budget cap, so you stay in control of spend. Retouched and original photos are always included free.
How fast do guests get their photos?
Instantly. Photos are texted to each guest and posted to the event gallery within seconds — no waiting, no prints to hand out.
Do you travel to San Francisco?
Yes — we cover San Francisco and the California area, and we're happy to travel to nearby towns for your event.
What do you need on site?
Just a small open spot (about 8×8 ft) and Wi-Fi or cell signal. The booth runs on its own battery, so a power outlet is optional — handy for very long events, but not required. We handle setup and teardown.
Do you bring physical props?
No — and that's by design. Instead of plastic glasses and cardboard signs, our styles transform the photo itself: guests pick a look and walk away with magazine-quality shots, not a costume snapshot. The setup stays clean, there's nothing to lose or sanitize, and the photos are far more memorable.
How far in advance should we book?
Popular dates fill up fast, especially in wedding season. Reach out as early as you can — check availability for your date and we'll confirm.
Can I rent the booth without an attendant?
Yes — the DIY rental is $200 per event plus $80 delivery and pickup, and we'll set up and tear down for an extra $70 if you'd like. You get step-by-step setup instructions, run the booth yourself, and are responsible for the gear while you have it, with a $1,000 refundable damage deposit.
