Photostrip is founded by JJ Jumoc-Casas, a San Francisco-based photographer and cinematographer. He co-founded Motionscope Weddings, which provided full photography and videography coverage before focusing solely on commercial clients with 8:45a.
We realize half the fun of a photobooth is taking the picture(s) and walking away with a photo print. While we integrate digital ways to share the images via SMS, texting, and email, we love it when guests come home with a printed memory from the event.
Four hours is the sweet spot for most events. For weddings, it covers the cocktail hour plus the dancing portion. For corporate events, four hours also covers the peak hours. If you do happen to want more hours of coverage, we only charge $199/hr after the first four hours.
We understand that 4 hours might be too much, so we offer 2-hour packages at $975. Please understand that this would still include the additional 1.5 hours required to set up and tear down the booth. If you decide to extend the booth on-location, the additional charge is $199/hr.
We arrive at least 1.5 hours before the agreed time for the booth to be open to set it all up. An 8x8' area is needed to operate the booth successfully as it provides space for the booth itself, an 8' wide background, and enough space for people to enter and exit. We'll also need access to standard 120V AC electrical power, which our Photobooth will be plugged into for the duration of the operation. We use a 25' foot extension cable that will be taped down so guests will not trip over it.
Our white background is our gold standard. It's clean, minimal, and flattering, and it helps actually throw light back to subjects, making for a great studio-quality photo. We are more than happy, though, to work with your own backdrop if you prefer.
We don't offer any props as we believe each party is its own, and the focus should be on you and your guests. Plus, one "standard" prop box won't fit all parties. However, we can customize our booth props to fit your theme for $199. We'll shop for you and bring props that will make your booth experience even better.
After the event, all photos (both singles and photostrips) are uploaded so you and your guests can download the full-resolution images for free through your unique URL i.e. http://photost.rip/event-name
There is a 50% deposit upon signing the agreement. The remaining balance is due anytime before or on the event day. The image gallery will be available ASAP but guests cannot download the images until balance is fully paid.
We'd love to have a meal reserved for our technician. Otherwise, let us know if we have to pack our own PB&J sandwich along with a CapriSun.
LET'S GOOOO. Fill out the form so we can hold your date for you. We'll guard it from anyone else who wants Photostrip.co on your date. :)
