Photo booth hire — Johannesburg

Something for the memory box.

Everyone in one room, for once. A print in their hands before the laughter stops — and each one goes home with them: onto a fridge, into a wallet, into the drawer that comes out the next time the family gathers. That is where family lore lives, in a dozen different houses at once.

Why we exist

There is something heartbreaking about forgetting. Forgetting who you once were.

Memory is fragile. We don't print pictures — we help people return to a moment they thought was gone, and return to themselves.

Our phones are full of photographs we never take the time to look back on. A print is a different kind of thing. It is held, passed around, kept. It outlives the phone it was taken on, and the one after that, and years later it is still being handed across a kitchen table.

How it works

Our team comes to you.

We arrive early, set up quietly, and stay for the whole booking — looking after your guests so that you never once have to think about us. You end up with photographs, and so does everyone who came.

  • Two crew on site for the full booking — setup, running the booth and breakdown included.
  • Prints there and then, in hand, in about twenty seconds.
  • A strip design made for your event — not a template with your names dropped in.
  • A styled backdrop, chosen with you. Included, not an add-on.
  • Room for everyone — an open booth, not a cubicle, so a whole group fits in the frame together.
  • Props worth using, kept to the side of tasteful.
  • Every image, digitally, in a gallery after the event.

Where we work

Wherever your loved ones gather.

Your besties. Your parents. Your university friends, your grandparents, your nieces and nephews — even your coworkers. Everyone who would come, in one frame, holding it afterwards.

Weddings

The queue that forms by itself, and the print your aunt still has on her fridge three years later.

Weddings

Corporate

Year-end functions, conferences, staff parties. The one thing on the day that people genuinely want.

Corporate

Activations

Retail and brand activations. Your branding on something they keep, not a flyer they bin.

Activations

Showers

Smaller rooms, closer people. These are the ones that end up framed on a shelf.

What it costs

Every event is quoted properly.

We don't publish a price list, because a hundred-guest shower and a three-hundred-guest wedding are not the same job. Tell us about yours and we'll send a written quote within 24 hours.

Most events land between R8 000 and R12 000, fully staffed.

What shapes your quote

  • How long you need us — three or four hours covers most events.
  • How many guests — this sets your print allowance, so the booth never runs dry partway through.
  • Where it is — we cover Johannesburg, Sandton, Midrand and Pretoria as standard.
  • What you'd like around it — backdrop styling, and anything particular you have in mind.

What's always included

  • Two crew on site for the whole booking
  • Setup and breakdown
  • A strip design made for your event
  • A styled backdrop
  • Every image, digitally, afterwards

We take a small number of events each month so that every one is properly staffed. Weekend dates in season go early.

The book your guests write themselves.

A guest book filled with the photographs from the day. Prints slip into the page, and the people in each picture write to you beside their own face.

Not a stack of loose strips and a separate book of signatures — one object, finished by the time you leave. Ask us about it when you enquire.
