Choosing A Photo Booth Rental Long Island Company

By Martha Ross


In the past, people used to experience a lot of hassle looking for a photographer for their events. Others that do not prefer photographers were forced to buy shoot boxes for a single event. Doing so can be very uneconomical. Today, however, it is possible to rent this equipment because there are contractors or companies renting them out. With many companies offering these services, it is hard to pick the best. Here are some tips for choosing a photo booth rental Long Island business.

One of the things to keep in mind is the state or condition of equipment. Companies rent this equipment out for a few hours and they charge every single minute you are using it. If it will consume your time setting it up or if it is not fast, your money will go to waste. The best thing to do to ensure you use every minute that you have paid for is getting experts from the company to help you with the setup. Finding out about how frequent the tools are maintained can also help.

Again, remember that technology keeps on advancing. The image booth you hired five years ago is not the same as the one you will find in the market today. The current one has the latest features that you have little or no knowledge about. A reputable company will make sure you have knowledgeable staff providing all the technical support needed.

The other tip is the price. Find a rental company that has a fair pricing. All event planners want to save money so that they can stick to their budget. A good firm understands that you want to save hence offer you the equipment for hours and charge an hourly basis. Avoid people who charge a flat rate because you will be overcharged and you will not get the value of your money.

Size is also an important thing to consider. Image booths come in several sizes. You can find the open air and closed ones. Each of these has a different size. Think about your guest list when going to pick the equipment. This will help a lot because if you want to take a group photo of your guest, they all can fit in the box without having to damage or break the equipment.

Also, remember to check the gallery of the company. It is the only way to determine quality that a company is offering without checking their equipment. If the images you are shown are not pleasing, move on to the next company until you spot those with quality images, printers, and cameras. The lighting must also be adequate to capture clear images.

Moreover, the company should conserve power for a long time. People hire hourly and if the batteries run out of power, it will go off means a waste of money. Find a company with a power back up or have batteries that keep power for a long time. The memory space of the camera should also be ample to prevent pictures from being lost.

Lastly, if your event is on the peak season, visit the company months before since most holidays and weekends during this period all companies are booked. Sometimes even the off-peak season can have a lot of bookings. Do not wait until it is too late. Do the booking in advance.
