What a selfie booth actually is
A selfie booth pairs a DSLR or iPad with a pro ring light and a large touchscreen in a sleek open-air setup. Guests tap, pose, and instantly get unlimited photos, boomerangs, and GIFs — shared by text, email, or QR in seconds.
It’s the most flexible, budget-friendly booth, and it fits almost any space.
