WHY PHOTO BOOTH
PRICING VARIES

We're based in Beverly, Massachusetts, and every quote starts with how far your venue is from that home base. A short local trip on the North Shore or into Boston costs less than a run deep into New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Maine, Vermont, or Connecticut.

Distance isn't only mileage — it's crew hours on the road, loading time on both ends, and sometimes an overnight for a far-out weekend date. A longer drive within Massachusetts (Cape Cod or the Berkshires, for example) adds to the cost the same way an out-of-state event does.

Every package includes a base number of service hours. That base is what most events need, and it's the figure the starting prices on each experience page are built around.

If your timeline runs longer — a reception that keeps going, a multi-part corporate day, a prom with an extended window — the additional hours add to the price. Setup, breakdown, and gaps between segments (like cocktail hour into reception) are part of standard service and are not billed as idle time.

Guest count changes what the booth actually has to do. More guests means more sessions back-to-back, more prints running through the printer, and more consumables over the night.

Larger crowds can also mean a bigger setup footprint — more room for the line, more space around the backdrop, occasionally a second booth so nobody waits. All of that factors into the quote.

A backyard birthday, a 200-guest wedding, and a corporate activation are three different jobs. Event type drives how much staffing and setup complexity the day requires, and how much planning happens before we arrive.

Corporate clients frequently need paperwork that private events don't — certificates of insurance, vendor licensing, venue compliance documents, branded templates approved in advance. Preparing that is real work and it's reflected in corporate pricing.

Most packages include an on-site attendant for the full run-time. How many attendants your event needs depends on the scale and the pace of the room.

A small backyard party is typically a one-attendant job. A large wedding or a busy corporate event may require two or more so the line keeps moving, prints get handed out, and the setup stays presentable all night. Additional staffing adds to the cost.

Not every booth travels the same way. Our mirror booths are large and heavy enough that transporting them typically requires a van rental — a real, direct cost attached to that specific setup.

Lighter setups like the Digital Social Booth don't carry that overhead, which is part of why they sit at the lower end of our starting prices. When you compare booths, you're partly comparing what it takes to get each one into the room.
