Open-air photo booth rental,
the booth the whole room steps into.
Studio lighting, ten guests in one frame, instant prints, and a design built to your event, across Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego.
The booth the whole room steps into.
An open-air photo booth is a professional camera and studio lighting on an open backdrop, with the whole room invited in. Most guests call it the selfie booth. Ten people fit in the frame, the line moves fast, and every session prints on the spot as a photo strip or a 4×6 and lands on each guest's phone seconds later. It is the booth we bring to most weddings, corporate events, and brand activations across Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego.
Every booking is designed to the event: the print layout, the screens, the backdrop, and, for brands, the booth exterior itself. Attended from load-in to the last photo, with a pricing page that answers the cost question before you ask.

A print in hand, designed to your event

On every phone before they leave
Each photo, GIF, or boomerang is texted or emailed the moment it is taken, branded in every frame, and the full gallery follows after the event.
Set up before your first guest arrives
Placement and power confirmed with your venue, early load-in, and the booth attended start to finish. You stay with your guests.

Open air photo booth questions.
What is an open air photo booth?
A professional camera, studio lighting, and a backdrop with no enclosure around them, so the whole room can see it and up to ten guests fit in one frame. It prints on the spot and sends every photo to the guest's phone. Most guests just call it the photo booth or the selfie booth.
Is an open air booth the same as a selfie booth?
Yes. "Selfie booth" is the everyday name for the same setup: an open backdrop, a screen guests face, and instant sharing. Ours adds a professional camera, studio lighting, and a printer, so the photos look like they came from a photographer rather than a phone.
Does it print?
Yes. The Print + Digital experience prints every session instantly as a photo strip or a 4×6, designed to the event, unlimited for the run time. The Digital experience is the same booth built for sharing only.
How many people fit in a photo?
Up to ten comfortably. The open backdrop is the reason groups keep coming back: the whole table, the whole team, the whole bridal party.
How much space and power does it need?
About 8 by 8 feet and one standard outlet. We confirm placement with the venue ahead of time; it fits a living room, a ballroom corner, a store floor, or a trade show aisle.
Can the booth itself be branded?
Yes. The print layout and screens are designed on every booking; for brand events the exterior gets a full vinyl wrap and the backdrop becomes a custom step-and-repeat. See the brand activation page.
Which backdrops can we choose from?
A collection backdrop comes with every booking; custom step-and-repeats and set pieces are designed to the brand or the event. Browse the backdrop collection.
