Frequently asked questions

What makes Selfie Station different from other photo booths?
The Selfie Station is an open air booth! No more squeezing into the small booths! It has a large color touchscreen display. Photos are HIGH quality (better than old style photo booths) and print within seconds. We offer 4×6 photos which are larger than the classic strips. However, we can print classic strips too. We personalize every frame to match the party’s theme. The Selfie Station allows guests to upload instantly to Facebook, Twitter, texts, emails and Pinterest. The Selfie Station also has GREEN SCREEN technology.

What is green screen technology?
With the green screen, guests are able to select from up to 18 different backgrounds. Selfie Snapshots adds backgrounds to the Selfie Station to match your party theme. Guests then select the background before they take their picture. After the picture is snapped, they are added to the custom background.

What type of events can I book the Selfie Station for?
The Selfie Station is great for all types of events. Some of these events include: wedding receptions, high school reunions, corporate events, birthday parties, charity fundraisers, school events, graduations, and church events.

Does the Selfie Station require internet access?

How far in advance do I need to book?
Reserve your date as soon as you know. Dates fill up exceptionally fast during peek seasons. If you have an event that is short notice, contact us as soon as possible.

So, I have rented the Selfie Station, what do I do next?
Just relax! We will arrive at your event about 1 hour early to set up. After the last photo is taken, it will take us about 30 minutes to take down. This is NOT included in the time you rent out. For example, if you choose 3 hour package, our staff will actually be at your event for 4 and a half hours.

Is the Selfie Station easy to use?
Yes! It’s super easy! Guests follow the easy instructions on the touch screen, pictures are taken and displayed within seconds.

Can we personalize the prints?
Yes. You have the option of adding text to the prints (such as your event name), a logo, or slogan. We will go over this with you before the event.

Can the Selfie Station be setup outdoors?
Yes. We would like a shelter provided such as a tent or cover. Without shelter, the elements could lesson the quality of the photos. Keep in mind that electricity is required to run the Selfie Station.

Do you charge extra to set up Selfie Station?
No. Setup is included in the price.

Will there be someone at the event to maintain the Selfie Station?
Yes. Two professionally dressed attendants will be on hand and will accompany the station to your event. They will monitor the station constantly to insure it’s running properly.

What if we lose a print?
You will be handed a USB flash drive of all of your pictures taken during the event at the end.

What if I need to cancel or change dates?
If you need to change your date, there is not a charge as long as it’s done with at least 2 weeks notice. Hopefully your new date will be available. If you need to cancel your order entirely, any money paid as a deposit cannot be returned. We will, however, apply your deposit to any future date within 1 year from the original date paid.

Do you provide props?
Yes. We offer over 50 props per party. We add props to match your theme! All of our props are high quality!

Can we supply our own props?
