What is a Boomerang?

A short video with no sound (a moving picture!)

How much space do we need?

A 5ft x 8ft area will work for the photo booth alone.

A 10ft x 10ft X 10ft space is recommended for a booth with a backdrop & props. We can also make things work using our smaller backdrops in an 8ft x 8ft X 8ft space.

What are the power/WiFi requirements?

Power: The booth must be located safely within 10-15ft of a power outlet. We require an outlet with NOTHING else plugged into it. If there are no power outlets nearby, we offer portable power for an additional cost.

Wifi: The booth WILL NOT work without a strong wifi connection. Our booths have T-mobile Wifi built in but if your event is in a location with weak or No T-Mobile service, you will need to provide your own wifi connection.

What type of Photobooth do you offer?

We offer Digital Open Air Photobooths. These are fun selfie booths, usually best for 2-3 persons per photo (although we still see groups of 10 pile in LOL), and not the same photo quality of a professional camera/photographer.

How do I use the Photo Booth?

Our photobooths have LIVE VIEW TECHNOLOGY that allows you to see yourself on the screen. To start, you and your guests will simply tap on the ‘Welcome Screen’. Then select what you’d like to do (take photos, GIFs, Boomerang, etc.) Next, a countdown begins giving you sufficient time to grab a prop and strike a pose. The camera takes 2, 3 or 4 photos (depending on the photo frame you picked) with a 5 second interval between each photo.

Do I need a Backdrop?

A backdrop is highly recommended but not required. If you’re setting up the booth without a backdrop, we suggest having a wall or structure behind the guests to avoid photo bombs or randomness in the background! If you’re setting up your own backdrop, we recommend at least 5 ft wide x 7 ft tall, to fill the entire background of the photo.

Why are your Backdrops mostly Solid colors instead of a Scene?

To keep the focus on your guests and photo template, we mainly use single-color backdrops—glittery, sequined, or textured options instead of Scenes.

Backdrops with detailed scenes look great for decor but often don’t work well in a photo booth setting. Guests naturally cover most of the backdrop scene with their bodies (which could look strange with only part of the scene showing). The bottom and sides of the backdrop are not seen by the camera. Also varied clothing colors can clash with busy patterns, making the photo look cluttered. By keeping the backdrop simple, it allows your guest and the fun matching photo template to really shine without feeling too busy.

Can I use the Photo Booth outdoors?

Our photobooth rentals are generally for indoor use. They cannot get wet and will overheat in the sun. The wind can also blow over the backdrops and/or booth (Hey, it’s FL, hot, humid and known for super random, windy thunderstorms, LOL!) Even with a tent, there are times the sun will glare in your photos, into your guests eyes, make part of the backdrop lighter than the rest, etc. The photo quality will also not be consistent as the lighting will continue to change (clouds, sunset, sun location, etc.)

However, if you have a special request where you feel outdoor setup would make sense, please reach out. We may require you to rent our outdoor gear with items such as our popup tent, sandbags, portable power, and backdrop wind kit for an additional cost. And of course, you would assume full responsibility for any damage.

Do you have insurance?

Yes! We are able to provide insurance information upon request.
