DIY

Easy. Quick. No attendant.

Our DIY iPad photo booth is a self-serve rental that runs without an attendant. We set up the iPad on a stand with a ring light, and guests tap the screen to take their own photos. Perfect for office parties, small birthdays, and low-key events where you want a booth without the extra cost.

DIY questions

Stuff people
ask about DIY.

  • 01 Does someone have to watch the iPad?

    Nope. The DIY booth is self-serve. We set it up and pick it up later.

  • 02 Can we still get prints with DIY?

    Yes. Add the Print add-on to DIY for $300+. You get real 2x6 photo strips printed on the spot. The Glam booth has better photo quality if prints are the priority, but DIY + Print is a great budget combo.

  • 03 What if the iPad runs out of battery?

    It plugs into the wall. We also bring a backup battery for outdoor events.
