How to choose the right photo booth for your event
What each of our four booths does best, what it costs, and how to pick the right one for your wedding, gala, or party in Hampton Roads, Richmond, or the DMV.
Every one of our booths comes with studio lighting, a custom design, and photos on your guests' phones that night. The real difference is what your guests walk away with and how the room feels while they're waiting their turn. Here's how we'd think it through.
Start with one question
What do you want your guests to take home?
- Portraits worth framing: The Mirror
- Quick, playful photos, GIFs, and boomerangs to post right away: The Match
- A slow-motion video moment on the dance floor: The Moment
- Easy fun with no attendant at a relaxed party: The Foundation Express
The Mirror: portraits worth framing
The Mirror is our DSLR portrait booth and our most popular. Studio lighting flatters every skin tone, fabric, and formal look, and your booth concierge gives gentle direction, so portraits come out natural and polished instead of stiff. Guests also get GIFs and boomerangs.
Choose it for weddings, black-tie galas, quinceañeras, anniversaries, and milestone birthdays: anywhere people dressed up and want proof.
Pricing: $850 for Celebrations, or from $1,095 for Weddings & Brand Events, for 3 hours.
The Match: fast, fun, and shared on the spot
The Match is our digital booth. Guests choose a photo, GIF, or boomerang, see it right away, and text it to themselves before they're back on the dance floor. Your concierge hands out props, keeps the energy up, and moves the line along.
Choose it for cocktail hours, birthdays, and brand events with steady guest flow, where speed and sharing matter more than a framed portrait.
Pricing: $595 for Celebrations, or from $795 for Weddings & Brand Events, for 3 hours.
The Moment: 360 slow-motion video
The Moment is a 360 video platform. A camera arm circles your guests while they dance, pose, and show off, and the clip plays back in slow motion with your custom overlay. It's the booth for big energy: grand entrances, the dance floor, and product launches.
It needs more room than the others, about 15 by 15 feet, so the arm can spin safely. Your concierge brings guests up, cues the music, and keeps everyone safe.
Pricing: $650 for Celebrations, or from $995 for Weddings & Brand Events, for 3 hours.
The Foundation Express: self-serve and simple
The Foundation Express is a stylish self-serve booth for relaxed parties. We deliver it, set it up before guests arrive, and come back for pickup. On-screen prompts walk guests through each photo, and they text their photos to themselves on the spot. It needs venue Wi-Fi to send photos instantly.
Choose it for backyard birthdays, showers, graduations, and family reunions. It's available for Celebrations only, at $395 for 3 hours.
