What moves the price
- Booth type — an open-air booth costs less than an enclosed booth, a magic mirror or a 360 video platform
- Hours on site — most photo booth packages run two to four hours, and each extra hour adds to the hire
- Prints — unlimited instant prints use paper and ink, so they cost more than digital-only sharing
- Props and backdrops — themed props, a sequin wall or a green screen are priced as photo booth extras
- Attendant — a host who helps guests and keeps the queue moving is part of the better packages
- London and peak dates — photo booths in London and on summer Saturdays sit at the top of the range
