Here&#8217;s what each style is good for. Once you&#8217;ve picked, send us your date, venue and guest count, and you can compare options with prices for booths that are available that day.<\/p>\n<h2>An open booth with a backdrop<\/h2>\n<p>A camera on a stand, a backdrop behind, and no walls. Groups of friends or a whole team fit in one photo. It suits parties and corporate events where groups move around together. It needs a clear patch of floor in front of the backdrop.<\/p>\n<h2>An enclosed booth<\/h2>\n<p>The classic booth with a curtain or walls. It fits a few people at a time, for guests who like a little privacy. It suits smaller groups and couples, and it takes up a set footprint, so ask how much floor space it needs.<\/p>\n<h2>A mirror booth<\/h2>\n<p>A full-length mirror with a camera behind it. Guests see themselves as they pose. It works well where guests want a full-length photo, such as at a dressed-up event.<\/p>\n<h2>A 360 booth<\/h2>\n<p>Guests stand on a platform while a camera on an arm moves around them and records a short video. It&#8217;s a different experience from a photo. Ask whether the company offers it, and what space and staff it needs.<\/p>\n<h2>Questions that help you choose<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>How many guests will use it at once: couples, small groups or whole teams?<\/li>\n<li>Do guests want prints to take home, photos on their phones, or both?<\/li>\n<li>How much space do you have, and where&#8217;s the nearest power outlet?<\/li>\n<li>Is it indoors or outside, and how is the light?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not sure, tell us about your guests and your room, and the options we send will show what each company brings.<\/p>\n<h2>How long it runs<\/h2>\n<p>The photo booth is set up in one spot for the hours you book. Think about when guests will use it, such as before dinner and after the speeches. Ask how long setup and pack-up take.<\/p>\n<h2>Questions to ask before you book<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Which booth styles do you offer?<\/li>\n<li>Is an attendant there for the whole time?<\/li>\n<li>How do guests get their photos: prints, text, email or an album?<\/li>\n<li>Can you add our logo or the event name to the photos?<\/li>\n<li>How much space and power do you need?<\/li>\n<li>What happens if something stops working during the event?<\/li>\n<li>When will you arrive, and how long do you need to set up and pack up?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>What changes the price<\/h2>\n<p>The price depends on how many hours you book, the number of guests, whether it&#8217;s a Saturday or in the holiday season, and travel outside Calgary.<\/p>\n<h2>How booking works with AGNT<\/h2>\n<p>AGNT is a booking company.
