Frequently Asked Questions About MagicPix Photo Booth Hire

Green screen technology is one of the things that makes MagicPix genuinely different from most photo booths.

Instead of a fixed backdrop behind your guests, our booth uses a green screen — the same technology used in film and television — to digitally replace the background with any image we choose. Before each photo, guests select their background on our 22 inch touchscreen from hundreds of options — from the Las Vegas strip and Hollywood Boulevard to the Eiffel Tower, tropical beaches, and professional studio backdrops.

The result is a photo that looks like your guests are actually there. It’s one of the most popular features at every event we attend — and it’s included in every single package at no extra cost.

We use a modern oval party photo booth that comfortably seats 4 to 5 guests depending on size — making it perfect for group photos, family shots, and large party groups.

The booth features a large 22 inch touchscreen, professional DSLR camera, and studio-grade lighting. It’s a stylish, freestanding booth that looks impressive in any venue — from grand hotel ballrooms to community halls and nightclubs.

You can see photos of the booth and examples of our work in our gallery. If you’d like to see more examples relevant to your event type, just get in touch and we’ll share them with you.

MagicPix offers three booth colours — white, black, and pink. Simply let us know your preference when booking and we’ll bring the colour that best suits your event.

White is the most popular choice for weddings and formal celebrations. Black suits corporate events, awards evenings, and glamorous parties perfectly. Pink is a firm favourite for birthday parties, hen dos, and fun private celebrations.

There’s no extra charge for your colour choice — it’s included as standard.

Single prints means one copy of each photo is printed per session — so if three guests step into the booth together, they each need to decide who takes the print home, or they can share it.

Double prints means two copies are printed automatically every time — so every guest in the photo gets their own copy to take home. Double prints are available for an additional £50 and are a popular choice at weddings and larger parties where you want everyone to leave with a physical memory of the night.

Yes — instantly. The moment your guests have taken their photos, the prints are ready within seconds. There’s no waiting around, no queue for a printer, and no delay. Guests love this moment — watching their photo appear in their hands right after taking it never gets old.

Every print is produced on professional photo paper with a fully customised design unique to your event.

Yes — a USB stick containing every single image taken at your event is included in every MagicPix package as standard. You don’t need to pay extra for it and you don’t need to ask for it — it’s yours as part of the service.

You’ll receive every photo in full resolution, ready to print, share, or keep as a digital memento of your event. We think it’s one of those things every photo booth company should include — so we do.

Absolutely. Every MagicPix booking includes a fully customised print design — tailored specifically to your event. We can add your names and date for weddings, a birthday message and age for milestone parties, your company logo and branding for corporate events, or any other personal touches you’d like.

Just let us know your requirements when booking and we’ll create a design for your approval before the event. The goal is for every print to feel like it was made specifically for your occasion — because it was.

Yes — a guest book is available as an optional add-on. We print an extra copy of every photo taken at your event and add it to a beautifully presented personalised book, where guests can also write messages alongside their photos.

It’s a wonderful keepsake for the host — something you’ll look back on for years. Guest books are particularly popular at weddings and milestone birthday celebrations. Ask us about pricing when you enquire.

Yes — and it’s a fantastic upgrade. Our red carpet and rope barrier transforms the entrance to the photo booth into a genuine VIP experience. Guests love it — it makes everyone feel like a celebrity the moment they step up to the booth.

It works brilliantly at weddings, glamorous birthday parties, corporate events, and any occasion where you want to add a touch of theatre and excitement. Ask us about pricing when you enquire.

Every MagicPix package includes: full setup and pack-down at your venue, a dedicated booth attendant for the entire duration, our 22 inch touchscreen photo booth with green screen technology, a professional DSLR camera with studio-grade lighting, hundreds of green screen backgrounds, over 1,000 photo effects and editing options, unlimited single prints with a customised design, instant social media sharing, a USB stick with every image from your event, fun props, and full public liability insurance.

Double prints, a red carpet and rope barrier, and a guest book are available as optional upgrades.

In nearly 200 events since 2017 we’ve had just one technical issue — and when it happened, we refunded the client for the loss of service without question. We believe that’s simply the right thing to do.

We take full responsibility for everything we bring to your event. We arrive early, check everything thoroughly before guests arrive, and stay on hand throughout the night to manage the booth. One issue in almost a decade tells you something about the reliability of our equipment — but how we handled it tells you everything about who we are.

Yes — full public liability insurance is included with every MagicPix booking as standard. You won’t need to request it and you won’t need to pay extra for it. If your venue requires proof of insurance before confirming the booking, just let us know and we’ll provide the relevant documentation promptly.
