Every way to put your guests in the picture
↓ Keep scrolling — one format per screen
Open Air Booth
No walls, no queue — the classic format built for big group shots, props and a backdrop chosen to match your styling. The one that gets the whole bridal party or the whole office in frame at once.
Enclosed Booth
A curtained pod for the guest who won't perform for a crowd — private, flattering studio lighting, tucked away from the room. Old-school photo booth charm with modern print quality.
360 Booth
One guest at a time, spinning on the platform while the camera arcs around them in slow motion. The format every phone in the room ends up filming — built to be the centrepiece of the night.
Social Photo Booth
An open, camera-forward booth built for big group shots and instant sharing — straight to guests' phones before the night's over, so the best moments are already circulating before you've left the venue.
Overhead Booth
A boom-mounted camera shooting straight down — built for flat-lay group shots, confetti drops and the overhead angle everyone stops to watch, then asks how it was filmed.
AI Photo Booth
Step in and become the red-carpet star, astronaut or magazine cover guests didn't know they wanted — styled instantly by AI. The newest format in the lineup, and already the one people talk about most.
A booth for every kind of night
A closer look, frame by frame
A running strip of real bookings — every frame below was shot at an actual Royal Booths event. No stock photos, no filler.
No hidden fees, no surprise call-outs
Every quote is built from the same four numbers, whichever format you choose — so you know exactly what you're paying for before you book.
Minimum hire
Every booking runs a minimum of three hours of pure functioning time — the clock starts when the booth opens to guests, not on arrival.
Standard travel fee
A flat, standard travel fee applies across Melbourne — no per-kilometre guesswork, quoted upfront with your booth.
Large booth upgrade
Want the bigger footprint for a bigger crowd? The large booth size is a straightforward $200 add-on to any package.
Deposit to lock in your date
A $100 deposit secures your date and booth. The remaining balance isn't due until 7 days before your event.
Built on a decade of Melbourne events
Royal Booths started in 2013 as a family-run operation working Melbourne weddings and birthdays one weekend at a time. Over a decade later it's the same hands-on approach — Chris and the team still answer the quotes, still walk through the setup with every attendant — just with a much bigger fleet behind it. Bringing Melbourne 360 Booths' equipment into the same lineup means Melbourne clients now get open air, enclosed, 360, social, overhead and AI booths from one operator, instead of chasing quotes from six different suppliers.
- A professional, uniformed attendant on every booking — never a self-serve kiosk left running on its own.
- Unlimited prints, all night, for every guest, on every package.
- Premium equipment — DSLR cameras and studio lighting across every format, from open air to AI.
- Trusted by Big W, the Commonwealth Bank, Clark Rubber and Manningham Council — the same setups we bring to your celebration.
- Fast, no-pressure quotes — tell us your date and guest count and we'll come back quickly.

What clients say after the guests go home
Absolutely amazing service from first contact till the end of my daughter's 13th birthday party. Photo booth was for three hours and the poses didn't stop.
My guests absolutely loved this experience, especially the props. I recommended them to most of my guest list — I'll definitely be booking again.
We used Royal Booths for our wedding and the booth was so user-friendly — the setup was stunning and our attendant was wonderful. Highly recommend.

Before you enquire
How far in advance should I book a photo booth?+
Popular dates — especially weekend weddings and December functions — can book out months ahead. The earlier you lock in your date, the more formats and time slots you'll have to choose from.
Is an attendant included with every hire?+
Yes. Every Royal Booths hire — open air, enclosed, 360, social, overhead or AI — comes with a professional attendant on-site for the full booking, handling setup, prop changes and pack-down.
Are the prints really unlimited?+
Yes — every package includes unlimited prints for the full hire period, so guests can jump back in as many times as they like.
Which booth format is right for my event?+
It depends on the moment you're after — open air suits big group shots, enclosed suits a private couple's moment, 360 and overhead suit a showpiece guests gather around, social suits fast sharing, and AI suits a styled, talked-about portrait.
Do you travel outside Melbourne?+
Royal Booths is based in Melbourne and also services Sydney, Canberra, Adelaide and Brisbane — let us know your event location when you enquire.
