How to Choose the Right 360 Photo Booth Provider: Essential Questions to Ask
Thinking of adding a 360 photo booth to your next event? Great call! A 360 booth adds energy, creativity, and that all-important “wow” factor guests love. But not all 360 photo booth providers are created equal - and choosing the right one can be the difference between a smooth, engaging experience and a forgettable photo op.
One of the most common questions people search is: “What should I look for in a 360 photo booth rental?”
What Kind of 360 Booths Do You Offer?
This may seem basic, but it’s critical. There’s a big difference between a standard rotating arm booth and a fully customized, AI-enhanced, branded experience.
Ask about the types of booths available:
Is it a basic 360 camera rig or something more advanced with motion effects?
Do they offer AI integration, custom branding, or multi-camera arrays?
Can the booth be customized to fit your event theme or aesthetic?
At 360Boothy, we offer everything from the classic 360 Slow Motion Booth to the high-tech Reinvented 360 Booth, designed for events that want something extra.
What’s Included in the Rental Package?
Not all rentals are equal. Some providers may offer low prices upfront, only to upsell you on everything from setup to digital delivery. Be clear on what’s included.
Here’s a checklist of what to confirm:
Event duration coverage
On-site attendant(s)
Setup and breakdown
Unlimited video/photo captures
Instant sharing capabilities (via email, text, or QR)
Custom branding overlays
Lighting, backdrops, or props

Is the Setup Professional and Event-Ready?
You want your booth to look as amazing as it performs. Ask to see photos or videos of past events. Check if their equipment:
Looks sleek and high-end
Includes professional lighting
Has proper branding or design customization
Bonus Tip: If you’re hosting a luxury or corporate event, your photo booth should match the look and feel of your brand or theme. Our Kim Kardashian Hollywood Glam Booth is a perfect example of an event-ready, visually striking setup.
How Tech-Savvy and Reliable is the Experience?
Technical hiccups during your event? No thanks.
Ask these questions to assess tech reliability:
Is the software user-friendly?
Are there backup plans if something goes wrong?
Do they use professional-grade equipment?
Don’t be afraid to dig into the tech details, especially if your event relies on smooth digital sharing or custom effects.

Can I Brand the Experience?
Especially important for corporate events, product launches, and activations—you want your brand visible and shareable.
Ask if the provider offers:
Custom branded video overlays
Branded microsites or galleries
Hashtag and logo integration
Branded booth design or backdrops
This is where the booth becomes more than a fun activity—it becomes a marketing tool. Want a creative edge? Consider pairing it with our Vogue Booth for a fashion-magazine-style look.
Do You Have Reviews or Client References?
This one’s big. A reputable 360 booth provider should have a portfolio of client testimonials, case studies, or video reviews.
What to look for:
Do they deliver consistently great experiences?
Are they responsive and easy to work with?
Have they worked with events similar to yours?
How Do Guests Receive Their Content?
One of the main reasons people LOVE 360 booths is the instant content sharing. Make sure the experience is as smooth as it is fun.
Key points to confirm:
Can guests receive videos via text or email?
Is there a QR scan option?
Is content saved in a gallery for the event host?
Most importantly, how fast is delivery? Guests won’t want to wait!
What Sets You Apart from Other Providers?
This is where you’ll get a sense of whether they’re a true partner or just offering a standard service.
Do they:
Customize the experience based on your event goals?
Provide creative suggestions?
Offer multiple booth types and add-ons?
Stay ahead of tech trends?
If a provider is just pushing packages and not asking about your event goals, you may want to keep looking. We believe in collaboration over cookie-cutter solutions.
Final Thoughts: Choosing the Right 360 Booth Partner
Your 360 photo booth provider shouldn’t just show up with a camera—they should be a creative partner in designing an experience your guests won’t forget. By asking the right questions, you can avoid surprises and ensure your event is elevated, engaging, and fully optimized for your guests.
