Across the Golden Horseshoe, photo booth rentals generally run between $400 and $1,500 for an evening. LUMA collections start at $595 plus HST, with wedding collections from $795, and every one includes the mirror booth, custom-designed screens and overlays, unlimited digital captures and a private gallery afterwards. Prints and an on-site attendant arrive together from $895 — those are the collections that look art-directed rather than rented.
Every collection includes the mirror booth and studio lighting, a custom screen and overlay designed for your event, unlimited digital captures, instant delivery to guests' phones, and a private online gallery of every frame afterwards. Unlimited on-site prints and an attendant for the full running time come in together from $895 — the entry collections below that are digital-only. Extras such as the glam filter suite, a memory book, a premium backdrop or a digital guestbook sit on top.
Plan for roughly 8 by 8 feet with about 8 feet of ceiling height, plus a small side table for the prints. We need one standard power outlet within about 25 feet. If your room is tight, tell us the dimensions when you enquire and we will tell you honestly whether it will work.
Setup takes about 60 to 90 minutes and teardown about 45. Neither counts against your rental hours — your time starts when the booth opens to guests. We arrive early enough to be finished and out of the way before your first guest walks in.
Digital always: every frame reaches guests' phones on the night and lands in a private gallery afterwards, kept both in colour and in a clean black-and-white edit. Prints are a print-collection feature (from $895) — where they are included they are unlimited and come out in about fifteen seconds, so everyone in the frame takes one home.
On the print collections — $895 and up — yes, for the full running time. They set up, keep the queue moving, reload paper, hand out prints and quietly fix anything that needs fixing. The entry digital collections run unattended, and an attendant is not sold as a line item, so if you want one you move up a collection.
For a Saturday between May and October, six to twelve months is normal, and popular dates go earlier. Off-season and weeknight dates are often available with a month’s notice. A signed contract and deposit are what actually hold a date.
We are based in Burlington and cover the Golden Horseshoe: Burlington, Oakville, Hamilton, Milton and Ancaster with no travel fee; Mississauga, Brampton, Toronto and Grimsby for $75; and St. Catharines, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Niagara Falls, Guelph, Kitchener–Waterloo and Vaughan for $150. Further afield, ask — we travel for the right event.
That is the point of it. Your on-screen design and your print layout are drawn for your event — your names, your date, your palette, your type. Send us the invitation and we will work from it.
Yes. Our editorial black-and-white grade is the house look — skin kept warm, contrast kept honest, no plastic beauty filter. Guests can also choose between finishes on the review screen before they print.
We carry a spare camera body, spare printer, spare paper and spare cabling to every event, and the attendant is trained to swap any of it in minutes. The software is built to recover from a failed capture without ending the session.
Yes, with cover and power. It needs shade or a tent — direct sun ruins the lighting and heat is hard on the printer — and a level surface. Tell us it is an outdoor set-up when you enquire so we bring the right stands and weights.
Tell us the date and the room. We will tell you honestly whether we are right for it.
