What Makes Our Photo Booths Special?
How do Selfie Booth Co. photo booths create memorable experiences?
Boasting high-resolution cameras, professional lighting, and skin-smoothing filters, our photo booth rentals deliver professional-quality photos with instant customization for every guest. The interactive nature of photo booths makes them natural conversation starters that bring people together.
In our experience serving thousands of events across Chicagoland, we’ve observed that guests return to photo booths an average of 3-4 times per event. This high engagement creates dozens of shareable moments that extend your event’s reach on social media and create lasting memories. Plus, each booth comes with a dedicated attendant to ensure smooth operation throughout your Chicago event.
What technology powers our Chicago photo booths?
Professional DSLR cameras paired with studio lighting capture crisp, well-lit photos in any Chicago venue. User-friendly touchscreen interfaces in the booth let guests add filters, digital props, and custom frames before printing. Every photo automatically uploads to a private online gallery that you can access immediately and share with all your guests.
The subtle skin-smoothing filter applies flattering enhancements without looking artificial. We tested this feature extensively at hundreds of Chicago events and found it consistently receives positive feedback from guests who appreciate a polished selfie. This technology works in any lighting condition, from bright downtown ballrooms to intimate loft spaces in West Loop.
Choose your Photo Booth Experience
What types of photo booths does Selfie Booth Co. offer in Chicago?
There are multiple booth styles available to match your Chicago event needs and venue space. Options include traditional enclosed booths, open-air setups, 360-degree booths, and digital selfie stations. Each style delivers professional photos while creating different interactive experiences for your guests.
ORIGINAL BOOTH
Open-Air Booths work best for large groups and Chicago venues with space constraints. The open design allows 10-12 people to fit in a single photo and creates a more social atmosphere where others can watch the photo sessions. This style works particularly well for downtown hotel ballrooms and suburban banquet halls where you want to maximize guest participation.
- High-quality photos & unlimited prints
- Instant digital sharing & live gallery
- A choice of 50+ backdrops and more
GLAM BOOTH
Traditional Enclosed Booths provide privacy and intimacy. They work well for weddings where guests want quiet moments and corporate events where people appreciate a semi-private space. The enclosed design also helps control lighting in challenging venue conditions.
- All original booth features
- Beauty filter + black and white effect
- Premium white backdrop
Selfie Station
Digital Selfie Stations offer a modern, minimalist setup perfect for tech-forward brands and contemporary events throughout Chicago. These stations take up less floor space while still delivering professional-quality photos and instant digital sharing capabilities.
- Unlimited digital experience
- Data collection, analytics
- Instant Digital Sharing and more

Highly recommend. We hired Selfie Booth Co for our wedding. They were professional and easy to work with from beginning to end — quick responses, thorough communication, on time, etc. The booth itself was a HUGE hit at the wedding. Our guests had so much fun taking pictures and they came out super cute (not to mention the filter made everyone look pretty). Definitely an awesome addition to our wedding and well worth it!

We rented a photo booth for our wedding reception from Selfie Booth, and we loved it. Our guests had a bunch of fun taking pictures and now we have some more fun memories! The staff were great, and it is awesome that each guest got a copy of the immediate print-out, plus we got an online gallery a few days after the event. And it was all for a very reasonable price compared to some other photo booths we considered. All in all, an excellent option for a fun photo booth at your event!

I hired Selfie Booth for a firm holiday party and couldn’t be more pleased with the whole experience. I worked with Marcelle from initial contact throughout. She helped me plan the perfect package that was best suitable for our event. I loved all the customization options we could add to make our event special – which included a branded digital frame, backdrop, logo placement, etc. I will definitely use Selfie Booth again and would recommend them to anyone looking to hire a fun photo booth experience for your next event

How far in advance should I book a Chicago photo booth?
The busiest dates of the year are booked months in advance, especially for Friday and Saturday events during wedding season (summer and fall in Chicago) and December holiday parties. Reserve your date today to ensure availability for your Chicagoland event.
Popular dates fill up 3-6 months ahead. If your event is during peak season or falls on a holiday weekend, contact us as soon as possible. We occasionally accommodate last-minute bookings when we have availability, but advance booking guarantees you get your preferred booth style and ensures our team can properly prepare for your Chicago event.

Photo Booth Rentals For Every Chicago Event
Our photo booth rentals in Chicago are designed to fit any event, from grand weddings and social events to informal gatherings and high-energy corporate functions. We offer a wide range of booth styles and customization options to suit any theme or venue throughout Chicagoland.
Weddings
Why are photo booths popular at Chicago weddings?
Photo booths provide interactive entertainment that creates lasting keepsakes for wedding guests. Your guests take home personalized photo prints that become unique keepsakes, reminding them of your celebration for years to come. Printed photos become refrigerator magnets, desk decorations, and scrapbook additions that keep your wedding memory alive.
With thousands of happy wedding clients across Chicagoland, we know how to make your Chicago wedding shine. Whether it's a ceremony at the Chicago Cultural Center, a reception at a downtown hotel, or a celebration at a historic estate in Oak Park, we coordinate with your venue and match your wedding colors and create custom print designs that complement your invitations and decor.
In our tests at Chicago wedding receptions, we found photo booths see peak usage during cocktail hour and after dinner. Between formal events, guests seek entertainment and engagement, both of which can be found in a photo booth. The booth gives guests something fun to do while you're taking family photos or during transition periods. This keeps energy levels high throughout the evening and creates natural mingling opportunities.
Parties & Events
How do photo booths enhance birthday parties and celebrations in Chicago?
Photo booths amp up the energy at Chicago parties and events with engaging, interactive experiences. Whether it's a 360 booth, digital selfie station, or the original photo booth setup, our booths instantly become the gathering point where guests congregate and have fun.
Photo booths bring joy, camaraderie, and shared memorable moments to birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, bar mitzvahs, quinceañeras, and holiday parties. They work for both casual gatherings and upscale venue celebrations across Chicago and the suburbs. From loft parties in West Loop to backyard celebrations in Evanston, our booths adapt to any Chicagoland setting.
We've used our booths at Chicago events ranging from 20 to 2,000 guests. Each event type benefits from the same core appeal: people love seeing themselves on screen, creating silly moments with friends, and taking home physical prints as keepsakes. The instant gratification of printed photos creates a tangible connection to your event that digital-only experiences can't match.
Corporate Events
What are the benefits of photo booths at Chicago corporate events?
Photo booths make Chicago corporate events more engaging and memorable for attendees, all while increasing your marketing opportunities. From trade shows to team-building events, we bring interactive setups that boost brand visibility and create conversation starters throughout the Windy City's business community.
Corporate photo booths serve multiple business objectives: they draw traffic to your booth at McCormick Place trade shows, create branded social media content, collect email addresses for lead generation, and give attendees tangible takeaways with your logo. Our booths help your brand shine and get people talking about your company across the Chicago metro area.
We’ve observed that at Chicago corporate events, attendees who visit photo booths spend an average of 15 minutes in that area, creating multiple opportunities for brand interaction. In addition, photos shared on social media extend your event's reach to their professional networks throughout Illinois and beyond. This organic social sharing amplifies your event's impact far beyond the venue walls.
We customize everything for Chicago corporate clients, including branded photo frames, logo overlays, custom backdrops featuring company colors, and data collection screens that capture contact information with guest consent. This works especially well for tech companies, financial firms, consulting organizations, and established businesses hosting team events throughout Chicago and its suburbs.
