Booth Type
The biggest pricing variable. Open air starts at $475. AI booths start at $1,500 because of the technology and specialist operation required. 360 Video Booths start at $1,400.
Event Duration
Most packages are priced for 3 hours. Longer events add $150/hr for standard booths. The 360 booth adds $300/hr. Idle time (booth on-site but not operating) is $75/hr.
Print vs. Digital
Digital-only packages cost less than print packages. Our Open Air Bronze ($475) is digital-only. Gold ($795) includes one physical print per person per session.
Guest Count
More guests means more sessions and more attendant attention. For events over 200 guests, we recommend 4+ hours or a second unit to prevent long wait times.
Travel
Most of LA County is included in our standard pricing with no travel fee. Locations beyond 35 miles from La Crescenta may incur a small travel fee disclosed upfront — always before you book.
Season & Day of Week
Peak season (May–June, September–December) and Saturday evenings book faster. Pricing is consistent year-round, but availability is limited — early booking is the best way to secure your date.

Are there travel fees for Los Angeles events?
There are no travel fees for events within LA County — the vast majority of our bookings. For events outside LA County or beyond approximately 35 miles from La Crescenta, a travel fee may apply. We always disclose any travel fees upfront in your quote, before you commit to booking.
What does "from $X" mean — are there hidden fees?
No hidden fees. The price shown in your quote is the price you pay, plus applicable tax. "From $X" means that's the lowest-tier package for that booth type — higher tiers include prints, upgraded experiences, or longer rental duration. All optional add-ons (audio guestbook, step & repeat, etc.) are itemized separately and never added without your approval.
How long is a typical photo booth rental?
3 hours is our standard package duration for most booth types. That covers the typical cocktail hour plus reception, or a standard corporate activation. Need more time? Additional hours are $150/hr for standard booths (Open Air, Mirror, Glam, Studio, AI). The 360 Video Booth adds at $300/hr. We also offer idle-hour pricing ($75/hr) for booths that need to be on-site during dinner or a ceremony break.
Do you offer packages for large events?
Yes — our Trading Card Photo Booth and AI Photo Booth are specifically designed for high-volume corporate events and brand activations. The Trading Card Premium Collector package ($3,200) and AI Print Booth ($2,500) are built for throughput and brand impact. For very large events (500+ guests), we also offer multi-unit setups. Call us at (747) 895-4473 to discuss a custom package.
What is the cheapest photo booth rental option?
The most budget-friendly option is our Drop-Off Self-Serve Rental at $500 for 6 hours — we deliver, set up, and pick up the booth, and your team operates it (no attendant). For a fully staffed experience with a bilingual attendant, the Open Air Bronze package starts at $475 for 3 hours (digital-only, no prints). Call (747) 895-4473 to find the right fit for your budget.
