Photo Booth Experiences in Downtown Chicago
From open-air setups to roaming photo booths, we bring interactive photo experiences directly into downtown Chicago events. Our booths work well for corporate gatherings, weddings, receptions, and private events where guests can step in for a posed photo or be captured naturally while moving through the celebration.
One popular option we offer is our 4x6 photobooth print design (two images above), which gives clients a larger layout area for custom event branding, logos, sponsor graphics, and themed designs. While we still offer traditional photobooth strips, many of our clients prefer the 4x6 format because guests are more likely to keep and display them, while smaller strips are often misplaced or thrown away after the event.
Photo Booth Features
Our photo booth experiences are designed around more than taking a picture. From guest check-in and fast-moving lines to professional prints, wireless technology, custom branding, and booth designs that complement your event, we create an experience that looks good, moves efficiently, and keeps guests engaged.
Multiple Photo Booth Experiences
Choose the experience that best fits your event, or combine multiple booth options for larger celebrations, conferences, and corporate events.
Available experiences include:
-
Open-Air Photo Booth
-
Roaming Photo Booth
-
360 Video Booth
-
AI Photo Booth
-
Magazine Photo Booth
-
GIF, Boomerang & Video Experiences
Instant On-Site Printing
Guests can leave with a professionally printed keepsake within moments. Choose from available 2×6 photo strips or 4×6 prints, depending on your package and booth experience.
Wireless Printing
Our wireless printing capabilities allow photos to be captured away from the traditional booth and sent to a centralized print station. This is especially powerful with our Roaming Photo Booth, allowing the experience to move throughout your event without sacrificing instant prints.
Fast Lines & Large-Event Check-In
Hosting a conference, convention, university event, corporate activation, or high-attendance celebration? Our check-in and guest-management options can help organize participation and keep lines moving efficiently.
Instead of creating confusion around the booth, guests can check in, receive instructions, and move through the experience with greater structure, especially useful for headshot lounges, conferences, trade shows, and high-volume events.
Custom Event Branding
Your photo booth should look like it belongs at your event.
We can incorporate:
-
Event names
-
Company logos
-
Sponsor logos
-
Wedding monograms
-
Brand colors
-
Custom photo templates
-
Digital overlays
-
Magazine-cover designs
-
Custom graphics
For organizations, photo booth images can become an extension of the event's branding rather than a separate attraction.
Unlimited Guest Participation
Select packages include unlimited sessions during your reserved service time so guests can return throughout the event and create more than one memory.
Print packages can also include unlimited on-site printing based on the selected experience.
Professional Photo Booth Attendants
For staffed experiences, our attendants help guests pose, understand the booth, use props, locate images, receive prints, and keep the experience moving throughout your event.
Professional Lighting & Image Quality
Our booth experiences are built around quality, not simply an iPad sitting on a stand. Available setups incorporate professional lighting and high-quality camera equipment to produce polished photographs that guests actually want to print, post, and keep.
Multiple Backdrop Options
Choose from a variety of backdrop styles to create the look that works best for your event. Custom or specialty backdrop options may also be available when you need something created specifically for your brand, celebration, or theme.
Physical & Digital Props
Give guests different ways to personalize their experience with:
-
Traditional handheld props
-
Signs
-
Glasses and accessories
-
Event-themed props
-
Digital props
-
Interactive overlays
-
Custom branded props
Specialty and custom prop options can also be developed for select events.
Instant Digital Sharing
Guests don't have to wait until after the event. Depending on the booth experience, photos and videos can be delivered digitally for easy saving and sharing.
Available delivery options may include:
-
QR code
-
Email
-
Text
-
Digital download
-
Event gallery
AI-Powered Photo Experiences
Our AI Photo Booth can transform individual portraits into creative customized experiences, including themed characters, artistic concepts, branded environments, and other AI-generated looks.
AI can also become part of a corporate activation, themed event, conference, or interactive guest experience.
AI Facial Recognition Photo Lookup
At supported events, guests can use our photo lookup technology to quickly locate photographs of themselves instead of scrolling through hundreds of event images.
This is especially helpful for our Roaming Photo Booth and larger events where many photographs are being captured throughout the venue.
Print & Viewing Stations
Guests can visit a dedicated station to:
-
View photos from the event
-
Locate their images
-
Select favorites
-
Request prints
-
Experience moments captured in other areas of the venue
Additional viewing stations can be added for larger events to reduce congestion and expand the experience throughout the space.
Photos, GIFs, Boomerangs & Video
Your guests are not limited to traditional still photographs. Depending on your booth experience, they can create:
-
Photos
-
GIFs
-
Boomerangs
-
Short video clips
-
360 slow-motion videos
-
AI-generated portraits
ROAMING BOOTH & OPEN-AIR BOOTH RENTAL PRICES
Our roaming photo booth includes the same core features as our open-air booth, but instead of staying in one location, the experience moves throughout your event. A roaming attendant can approach guests, capture dance-floor moments, quick group photos, hugs between longtime friends, and other candid interactions that a stationary booth may miss.
Starting pricing for 2 hours:
-
$275 — digital photos only, no prints
-
$400 — includes 2x6 prints
-
$500 — includes 4x6 prints
Each starting package includes one roaming attendant and one viewing station. Print packages also include a printing station. Additional roaming attendants, extra viewing stations, extended hours, and other upgrades are available for an additional cost.
Contact us for a custom roaming photo booth quote based on your event size, coverage needs, and add-ons.

Which Photo Booth Is Right for Your Event?
Choose your booth based on how you want guests to experience it. Open-air booths are best for a dedicated photo area and group pictures, roaming booths move through the event to capture guests where the action is, 360 booths create short interactive videos, and magazine booths offer a more styled, statement-making setup. Compare the experience, space needed, prints, and pricing below to find the best fit for your event.
