Frequently Asked Photo Booth Questions


How does the Glitter Lens photo booth work?
  Easy! Guests just step inside the booth and close the curtain. They press the 'start' button to begin taking photos. They will be prompted by the screen to take four different photos. Photos are quickly printed on the spot. The photo booth saves all images so Glitter Lens can upload them to your online photo gallery.

What is included in the rental service?
  All of the photo booth packages include free set up and take down, a full time host, unlimited photos, customized photo strip graphics, props for use in photos & an online gallery of all images with free downloads.

How many photos can we take?
  You can take as many photos as you like. Every photo booth rental includes unlimited pictures.

How many pictures does your booth take per hour?
  Four pictures are taken during each session and on average there are forty-five sessions per hour, so you get approximately two hundred photos per hour.

What quality pictures does your photo booth print?
  Glitter Lens uses a DNP RX1 Dye-Sub Digital Photo Printer. It is a professional high-speed digital photo printer which uses dye-sublimation technology to deliver beautiful smudge-, water- and dust-resistant pictures, displaying crisp, vibrant colors with natural, continuous tone. Photos are printed in archival quality.

When do we receive the pictures?
  All guests will receive their photo strip roughly fifteen seconds after their picture is taken. A few days after your event, we will send you a link where you can download all of your photos. Your guests can download & print extra copies as well.

How long does it take for photos to be posted on the internet in the online picture gallery?
  Your pictures will be posted online within four business days.

Can the online picture gallery be private?
  Yes, the galleries have a direct url link that only you can see. They can also be password protected upon request for further security.

Will there be someone to help operate the photo booth?
  Absolutely! A knowledgeable Glitter Lens host will be available at all times to assist your guests with any questions or concerns and to make sure the evening runs smoothly.

How big is the photo booth?
  The Glitter Lens photo booth is approximately eight feet long by six feet wide. It can be adjusted to six feet by six feet if you're limited on space. It is eight feet in height. Or, if you go with our 'open air' version, we can adjust all the way down to just 5ft by 5ft, and only 6ft tall.

How many people can fit into the photo booth?
  Up to 10 people at once, one of the largest enclosed booths in town! With open air we're sure you could get more!

Can I rent a Glitter Lens photo booth if my event is outdoors?
  Yes, though a flat surface and access to a power outlet are required. We would also prefer some type of covering for the convenience of your guests.

Are stairs or other obstacles a problem?
  Not at all, Glitter Lens photo booths are completely portable.

How does the photo scrapbook work?
  A small area next to the photo booth is set aside for the construction of your album. Guests are directed there after they take their photos. Glitter Lens brings along all the necessary scrapbook materials and prints doubles of all photos taken during the event. One copy will be for your guest to keep and the other will be placed into a photo album with a special message and decorations from your guest. The album is given to you at the end of the event.

How far in advance do I need to book my event?
  It is recommended to reserve a photo booth six months to a year in advance. But since Glitter Lens has several photo booths we have been able to accommodate customers with just days notice.

  Use our Contact Form or Email [email protected] to discuss availability and to reserve your photo booth today.

Is there a deposit required?
  Yes, just a $75 deposit will save your date.

Is the deposit refundable?
  Yes. We will refund a deposit if we receive notice of cancellation at least 45 days prior to the event.

Is there a cost if the photo booth needs to run idle?
  There is a $40 fee for idle photo booth hours.

How long does it take to set up the photo booth?
  Set up usually takes about thirty minutes. The Glitter Lens host will arrive at least an hour early to make sure the booth is up and running when your event starts. There is no charge for this hour. It is requested that someone be available when we arrive to help determine the best location for the photo booth.

How long is it recommended the photo booth be rented for?
  That is completely up to you. However, it is advised that the photo booth rental period be from the beginning to the very end of the event to avoid us having to set up or take down the photo booth in front of guests. Of course, if this cannot be avoided, we will do our best to be as discreet as possible. Or you could rent the booth for idle hours to avoid this situation.

Do you service events outside of Las Vegas/Henderson/Summerlin?
  Yes, we will travel up to fifty miles outside of Las Vegas for free. Beyond fifty miles there is a sliding scale trip fee that starts at $50.00. Ask for details.
