The Experience Matters

We put so much thought and effort into the photo booth experience because it should feel seamless for you and unforgettable for your guests, not like one more thing to manage. That is why there is always an on-site attendant, why everything is totally custom to your event, and why your guests get the best of both worlds with instant prints and digital copies of every photo.

  • ON-SITE ATTENDANT

    Your on-site attendant keeps everything running smoothly, helps guests have fun, and makes sure you never have to worry about the photo booth.
  • CUSTOM EVERYTHING

    Your custom photo templates and start screen match your wedding style, so every photo feels polished, intentional, and uniquely yours.
  • PHYSICAL & DIGITAL

    Guests get instant prints and immediate text delivery of every photo, so the fun is shareable right away and you still keep the full collection afterward.
  • THE LATEST CAMERA GEAR

    We use a Canon mirrorless camera and a Godox studio strobe with an umbrella for crisp, flattering, studio-quality photos every time.
  • THE FASTEST PRINTERS

    We use the industry’s gold-standard DNP 620A for fast, flawless, premium-quality prints all night.
  • THE BACKDROPS YOU’LL LOVE

    We offer premium, USA-made backdrops with 30-plus options, so every photo looks polished, intentional, and high-end.

The Gear Matters

If you want a photo booth that feels premium, looks incredible in every lighting situation, and delivers all night without hiccups, that’s exactly why event planners choose us. The quality of our camera, lighting, printing, and backdrops means your photo booth photos look like part of your event, not an afterthought. Everything runs fast and consistently, which keeps lines moving, keeps energy high, and guarantees you end up with photos and prints you are actually proud to share.

PREMIUM EXPERIENCES

AI

Our photo booth experience turns guests into elegant watercolor portraits or timeless black-and-white sketches (or into the cast of Hamilton) in seconds, creating artwork-worthy keepsakes they’ll actually want to share and frame. It’s a premium, interactive add-on that elevates your event experience and gives your guests something truly unique to take home.

KEYCHAINS

A keychain photo booth experience lets your guests take home a personalized photo keychain made on the spot, so your favorite people leave with a keepsake they’ll actually use long after your event ends. It’s a premium add-on that elevates your event and turns it into something guests remember every time they grab their keys.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

  • “Setting up for an outdoor event in the freezing cold with wind was no easy task but Scott handled it perfectly. We’re so grateful he was able to deliver, even under difficult conditions.”

QUESTIONS

Every person in a photo will get a print. You will also be provided with an online gallery of all of the photos taken throughout your wedding. 

We highly recommend you book us as soon as you have your date as our availability varies wildly based on the date. We have a limited number of booths and staff so we can only accept so many bookings per date.

We typically have the booth setup and ready for guests within 90 minutes and we’re broken down and gone within 30 minutes.

A signed contract and retainer (50%) reserves your date. The remaining balance is due one month before the event.

We need at least 8 feet (wide) by 8 feet (deep) by 8 feet (high) and access to power (3-prong) and level ground.

You’ll get a simple planning process: timeline discussion, layout, backdrop choice, print design, and a quick questionnaire so everything shows up exactly how you want it.

ABOUT US

South Central Photo Booths was created to elevate events and exceed expectations of what a photo booth experience is typically thought to be like. Your wedding has been meticulously planned and curated – make sure your photo booth experience is as well.

I’M AN ACTUAL WEDDING AND EVENT PHOTOGRAPHER.

I’ve photographed nearly 600 weddings and 100 events over the past 15 years. I’ve been named one of the top photographers in the world and even been named an ambassador for major photography brands. Yeah – I know photography!


FRUSTRATIONS SET IN

As I experienced more and more photo booths, I found myself disappointed in the overall experience. The attendants wore branded polos and sat down for most of the wedding. The booths and backdrops looked tacky and outdated and stuck out like a sore thumb against the rest of the beautifully curated event. The consistency and quality of the captures were mediocre at best because the attendants often didn’t understand basic photography skills.

OUR MANIFESTO

You spend countless hours and dollars planning your event so it looks and feels a specific way. Our mission is to work with you so the photo booth experience blends in seamlessly with everything you’ve already planned. It’s not about us and what we typically do – it’s about customizing everything to fit your needs. That’s our promise to you.


We believe in collaboration, bold visions, and flawless execution.

We accept a limited number of events for every date to ensure our clients receive the customized experience and service we’re known for. Fill out the form and we’ll get back to you ASAP with pricing and availability.
