Reviews for Mid-America Photo Booth
GUEST
Tony at Mid-America Photo Booth provided the service for our 20 year high school reunion. He was prompt with responses to my emails, he arrived at our location on time (he actually beat me there), and he had the photo booth set up, tested and ready to go by the time our guests arrived.
We had a booth-less type photo booth so the pictures had our unique venue as a background. We didn't have a ton of room for the booth, so I was happy to see that it only required a small set up area. The pictures turned out beautifully. The quality of the photos is unbelievable. It was easy and fun. Press a button and pose. Click...click. Funny how at the end of the night the party had migrated over to the area around the photo booth.
What I had not considered, which was a total bonus, was that it was great to have photos of everyone in a single location on the web. Which means that people who weren't able to attend were able to check out pictures that included everyone. 2 weeks later, people are still posting funny pics from the reunion on their facebook pages.
I would definately recommend Tony and Mid-America Photo Booth to anyone who is looking for a photo booth service. Total professional.

I've always wanted a photo booth at my wedding and my parents got it for me as a surprise. It was so awsome! Tony was so friendly and helpful - my friends are still talking about how much fun it was and how nice Tony was. They've already gone on-line and ordered more pictures! We had the best time. Thanks, Tony!

We really enjoyed the Photo Booth, it was the entertainment of the wedding and everyone really enjoyed it.
GUEST
Our photo booth was a big hit with our guests. Our wedding was a little over two years ago, and people still comment on how much fun it was. I even still have the print of my husband and myself displayed at work, the one strip of photos is able to capture how much fun the whole day was for us. I would recommend this as a must have addition to any reception.
Thanks for the memories!
About Mid-America Photo Booth
Photo booths keep kids, and grown-ups alike, entertained for hours as they take silly pictures and show them off to other guests.
Mid-America Photo Booth is an exclusive, one-client-at-a-time St. Louis photo booth service. We don't rent out multiple booths all over town on the same day, therefore we can give each event (whether it's a wedding or any other type of party) the full attention it deserves. Each client has the choice between custom artwork or one of our many standard designs for the prints, although most of our competitors only offer one design or no artwork at all, just plain photos.
We have several options to make your photo booth rental fit your style. From our stand-alone photo kiosk, with or without a backdrop, to a large, fully enclosed booth, we use only the highest quality equipment including a Canon DSLR and photo lab quality dye-sublimation photo printers. We pay close attention to the lighting so there are no dark spots or shadows caused by poorly placed lights. You will get beautiful photos with our professional flash unit and diffusers
Best of all, you get all the individual photos, plus the digital copy of the printed layouts on a DVD or Flash Drive, so you can print out more copies later or put them on your own web site.
Mid-America Photo Booth serves the St. Louis Missouri area within 30 miles of downtown, but will travel up to 150 miles (300 round trip) for a reasonable fee.

FAQ for Mid-America Photo Booth
Did you invent this? / Where did you get the idea? No, I didn’t invent Photo Booths, but you can read more about it here. I stumbled upon this business in 2009 when I answered a Craigslist ad looking for someone to operate a photo booth at a wedding in my area. I answered the ad and really enjoyed the experience, so I did some research and started building my own booth.
How much does it cost? Short answer… our most popular wedding package is under $800 for 3 hours of unlimited booth usage. Additional time and other options such as travel outside our local area can raise the price.
What do you mean by Unlimited Usage? From the time the booth is open, until the time it closes, your guests can use the booth as often as they can manage to go in and out. There are no artificial limits on the number of sessions. Of course there are physical limits to the number of sessions that can be done in a certain amount of time. With this booth I have averaged anywhere from 40 – 50 sessions per hour, with a typical 3 hour event having from 100 – 140 sessions total depending on how big the party was.
How much time should I rent the booth? This all depends on the nature of your event. How long is the event? How many guests? Generally, I recommend renting the booth for the duration of the party, but 3 hours will usually handle 100 – 200 guests. Beyond 200 guests I recommend an additional hour for every 50 guests, unless your party just doesn’t last long enough to accommodate that extra time. I require a minimum of 4 hours on Friday & Saturday, but don’t worry, I’m always willing to stay longer as long as you’re willing to pay for the extra time ($150/hour). Under certain circumstances I may offer a 2 hour booking on a weeknight.
What is Idle Time? Idle time refers to the times during your event that the booth and attendant are on-site, but not in-use. If that time causes the booth and attendant to be present longer than the booking hours. For example, your guests arrive at 5PM, but the booth is not open until 7PM. That would be 2 hours of idle time. This also applies if the booth can not be removed immediately after the contracted time ends.
Why do you charge for this? Due to the nature of our portable photo booths, we do not just roll in, plug in and start taking photos. There is some set up time involved. We don't want to inconvenience your guests by showing up in the middle of cocktail hour to set up, so our booth technician(s) will arrive one or two hours before your guests (depending on the booth options) and be set up, test the equipment and take a rest break before your guests begin showing up to the event. If the booth is to open at that time, then you don't pay for idle time. We have to pay our attendant for time working, whether the booth is running or not, so idle time is billed at a rate that covers the attendant's pay.

The Photo Booth Chimp was created for me by a fantastic cartoonist named Will, at goopymart, based on a previous character he had created named Chimples, the All Purpose Monkey. Please check out his other work, it’s a lot of fun.
