The Ultimate Guide to Renting a Photo Booth in Calgary

Renting a photo booth in Calgary seems simple—until you start comparing options. Here’s a clear guide to choosing the right booth, understanding pricing, and getting the best experience for your guests.

Booth Types
• Open‑Air Booth: modern, flexible, fits groups, looks clean in photos.
• Enclosed Booth: classic curtain style; fun for intimate spaces.
• Mirror Booth: interactive mirror interface; glam aesthetic.
• Roaming Booth: mobile device with ring light; captures cocktail‑hour candids.

What Affects Price
• Hours of coverage and peak dates
• Prints vs. digital only (paper and ink add cost)
• Custom overlays and premium backdrops
• Props kits and guestbook stations
• Travel and load‑in complexity

Typical Calgary Pricing
Expect $399–$999 for most events. Our packages start at $399 for essential coverage with unlimited prints and a pro attendant. Bundle with **DJ** or **photography** for 10–15% savings.

Space, Power & Placement
Plan a 10’x10’ footprint with one nearby outlet. Place the booth where guests mingle—near, but not blocking, the bar. Avoid backlight from windows; we’ll set flash for flattering skin tones.

Design & Branding
We’ll design overlays with your names, date, and theme. Corporate events can add logos, campaign hashtags, and sponsor marks. Premium backdrops (shimmer, greenery, step‑and‑repeat) elevate the look.

Props & Guestbook
Rotate props through the night—elegant early, silly later. A guestbook where guests add prints + notes becomes a cherished keepsake.

Throughput & Attendants
An experienced attendant keeps lines moving and helps with posing and reprints. For 200+ guests, consider extra hours.

After the Event
You’ll receive a digital gallery for sharing and archiving. We can also create a collage print or slideshow for anniversaries and team recaps.

Next Steps
Check your date on our Booking page and tell us your venue, timeline, and theme. We’ll recommend the perfect package and design mockups.
