Glam Booth Rental in Southern California

Camera: Studio DSLR, calibrated for skin tones, B&W mode native (not post-processed).

Lighting: 2-light softbox + ring flash, color-balanced for B&W output, adjustable per venue.

Filter: Real-time beauty filter (skin smoothing, soft features) — skin-tone safe, configurable intensity, never alters bone structure or skin tone.

Printer: Sublimation dye, 4×6 B&W in 12 seconds, premium heavyweight paper, water- and fade-resistant for 50+ years.

Delivery: Print on-site, SMS via Twilio, AirDrop, QR-code download.

Power draw: ~600W peak during print, single 110V 15A circuit sufficient.

Pick Glam when: the event is upscale (formal wedding, awards gala, fashion event), studio-quality portrait photography is the goal, and B&W aesthetic fits the venue. Best for guests 50–200, formal dress code.

Pick Mirror when: you want a touchscreen-signature wow factor and color prints for a guest favor — Mirror is the interactive premium booth.

Pick Classic when: budget is tighter ($395–$595), you want maximum throughput (60–80 guests/hour), and the printed strip is the keepsake. Best for school dances, large weddings, fundraisers.

Bad ambient lighting fighting the softbox: we run a pre-event walkthrough to identify mixed venue light. We position the booth perpendicular to strong window light or stage lights and adjust softbox temperature to match.

Beauty filter overkill: some competitors run filters that flatten skin and make guests look plastic. Ours is subtle by design — calibrated to skin-tone variations, never changes structure.

Print bottleneck: our 12-second print cycle keeps 50–70 guests/hour moving. Premium paper means slower than a strip booth — but the print quality is portrait-grade, not party-grade.

Bad template design: every B&W template goes through a 3-pass review (legibility, contrast, edge safety) before sending the proof.

Travel: Free 30-mile radius from Chino, CA. After 30 miles: $3/mile. Routine flat-rate service to Pasadena, Beverly Hills, Long Beach, Anaheim, Newport Beach, Riverside, Temecula, Palm Springs.

Setup: Crew arrives 60 minutes before event start. Strike is 30 minutes after end. Both are not billed against your operation hours.

Idle hours: If your event has an off-block (dinner break, ceremony), we pause at $75/idle-hour rather than billing full operation time.

Add-ons: Custom prop kit (formal) $95 · Branded photo guestbook $185 · Live-feed slideshow on venue TV $95 · Same-day USB of all prints $75 · Branded micro-site $125 · Premium backdrop upgrade $95.

Vendor packets: we deliver business license, W-9, COI, and equipment specs as a single PDF on request.
