Answers to your wedding photo booth rental questions

The Looking Glass Photo Booths FAQ's.

Of course we are more than happy to answer any other questions or discuss any concerns you may have.

How fast do the photos print out?

After a session is over the printer will start printing immediately. It takes about 15-20 seconds to print each picture.

Are the photos of high quality?

Yes. With the combination of our quality computer, printer and digital camera The Looking Glass Photo Booths provides you with highest quality photos that are clear and vibrant with natural tones.

Are there limitations as to where the photo booth can be set-up?

No. Our custom photo booths can be set up just about anywhere. Ideally we would we’d like to be within 50 feet of a power outlet. When we arrive before your event even starts, we will get together with your contact person at your venue and pick the best location. As this is a professional quality classic photo booth, it is rather heavy. All we ask is that you have us on a hard surface.

Can the photo booth be setup outside?

Yes. If there is shelter provided such as a tent or cover. If nothing is provided we may be able to provide a cover. There may be an addition charge for this cover. Without shelter, the elements would ruin our photo booths. Keep in mind that electricity is required to run our booths.

How many people can fit inside the photo booth?

Each booth has a different capacity. View the INFO page for the booth you're interesting in for capacities and specifications.

Does the photo booth have a monitor so waiting guests can partake in the FUN?

Is the photo booth easy to use?

Yes. The photo booth is VERY easy to use. Just follow the easy instructions on the touch screen. Your pictures are taken and displayed within seconds.

You may also add a logo with a date or other special information. We will go over this with you before the event and act upon your approval.

Do we get unlimited photos?

Yes. With every package the “fun” is unlimited. Bear in mind time restraints however.  This includes the time that it takes for people to get propped up, enter the booth, take their photos and exit the booth.

Can we choose to have only Color or only Black and White Photos?

Our scrapbook is an option available to you for you to enjoy forever. At the end of the event we will give the book to you. It will be filled with photos taken at your party. The book will provide photos and  personalized messages written by your guests. We will guide each guest to fill out the book. We will provide everything necessary for them. The only thing we need to set-up is extra space for a small table near the booth for the display

Can we regulate how often people visit the photo booth?

Yes. We will have to come up with a plan with you before the event if you think that may be a problem. This is commonly considered when lots of kids are at an event, as they tend to use the photo booth a lot. Mind you, this is okay by us, but if you think it may be a problem then we can implement a “ticket” plan or something of the sort, that way all the adults will get a fair shot at the fun!

Does an attendant come with the rental?

Yes. All packages include at least one on-site host for the duration of the event.

Do you have insurance?

We will have them up on our website within 24-48 hours. We will try to get them up the very next day if possible.

Are the photos on the website ours to print and save to our computer?

Yes. We do not sell our prints, print them yourself or save them to your computer to share with friends and family or for posting to social media.

Do you filter the content of the photos placed in the event gallery?
