Touchscreen were rare when I set this up, not sure if I want to go that route or stay with a button. HEAVY as all hell though, and not small (14' cube basically, 40 lbs) its a dye sub that cost $1k when I got it years ago, dead reliable, nice quaility, can do multiple sizes (not at the same time). I have very little to no issues with the mitsu printer. As it is it takes 45 min of setup and a trained worker. Looking to get it all in one box for easier setup. I use breeze systems DLSR setup and and considering their webcam setup and a mini PC (have a cheap tower now). I then moved to a more self-sufficient enclosed booth and it's a rod and curtain affair, PITA to setup but works well otherwise. I started with a DSLR and mitsubishi printer and an 'open' booth added to wedding packages. Personally I’m focusing more on the salsa booth now due to clients wanting way more than what my older dslr booth is capable of (glamour shots or mirror booth look). You have to ask is the investment to please these one off custom requests worth it or lose theservice to a full blown photobooth company with much more personalization capabilities. especially with clients that want more customization than normal, whether with Wanting certain props, certain backdrops, or print templates. As I’ve said, I’ve made a good amount of additional income from it. The only issue I’ve found with photo booths is that the technology is constantly changing andunless you invest in every photobooth type (salsa, dslr, mirror booths, glamour booths), you’ll never be able to satisfy every client seeking one. Of course the biggest benefit is the quality of the photos and the ability to print them.

You also will need an attendant with a great personality and able to handle issues.

It’s much more involved with needing knowledge of printers, replacing paper, setting up twilio to text images, camera settings, and more.

We don’t use props for this.Ī Dslr booth can get more in terms of pricing, I charge $850. You can also get away with no attendant as it’s very easy to use as a stand alone machine. I charge $450 for this option and am getting it added at some sweet 16’s and weddings that don’t wanna spend more. Another con is you can’t print out of the box (you technically can with certain modifications, but the photo quality is still low). I just bought supplemental lights to improve the quality of the photos. however it’s an iPad camera so photo quality is a bit low, especially in low light. Salsa is way easier, cheaper to buy for the business and for clients to Add on, simple to set up and more versatile with features.
