Our booths are approximately 1.3m wide x 2m long x 2m high, in addition, each booth is accompanied by a prop table which is approximately 1.2m wide x 1.2m long x 0.8m high. 

All of your photos will be printed using state-of-the-art thermal dye sublimation printers, as used by photo processing companies the world over. These ensure all photos are delivered touch dry and waterproof in seconds!

We always provide at least one friendly attendant (or Booth Butler as we like to call them) at every event to make sure you’re taken care of properly and to help with any questions you may have. We often provide two booth butlers, to ensure everything runs smoothly and encourage people to try out the fun booth.

The guestbook is a high-quality album that includes all of the pictures taken at your event. It comes complete and handed to you after the event. We also provide a number of gel pens to allow guests to leave their own personalised messages alongside their pictures.

If you give us permission on behalf of your guests who have had photos taken, we will upload them to our Facebook page for viewing and sharing.

Idle hours are deemed as any hours before, during or after the event where a booth is required but will not be in operation.
