How Much Does a Photo Booth Rental Cost?

Photo booth pricing varies by region, season, and what is included, but these general ranges are a starting point for a standard rental of two to three hours:

• Open-air booth: roughly $300 to $800
• Enclosed booth: roughly $400 to $900
• 360 booth: roughly $500 to $1,200
• Mirror booth: roughly $450 to $1,000
• Roaming booth: roughly $350 to $700

These ranges are meant as a general guide. The only way to know the actual cost for your event is to request quotes from vendors in your area.

• Rental duration: More hours generally means a higher total cost, though the per-hour rate sometimes drops for longer bookings.
• Props and backdrops: Custom backdrops, themed props, and printed templates that match your event branding often cost more than standard options.
• Prints and digital extras: Unlimited prints, photo albums, and instant digital sharing can add to the base price.
• Travel distance: Vendors often charge a travel fee for events outside their standard service area.
• Day and season: Saturdays during peak wedding season tend to be priced higher than weekday or off-season bookings.

When comparing quotes, look beyond the headline price. Ask whether setup and breakdown time count toward your rental hours, what the overtime rate is if your event runs long, and whether there’s an idle-hour rate if there’s a gap in your timeline.

Some vendors also charge separately for an attendant, travel, or a backdrop upgrade, so two quotes that look similar at first glance can end up quite different once everything is included.

Because so much depends on your specific event, the most reliable way to get an accurate price is to request quotes directly from vendors that serve your area, with details about your date, venue, guest count, and the booth style you’re interested in.
