Photo booths are quite popular in the entertainment market, and therefore there are quite a lot of them already, even though they have begun to lose their relevance over the years. But many more entrepreneurs continue to install them, and there are several reasons for this.
Reasons for the popularity of photo booth businesses:
- Photo booths do not require hiring additional employees; their operation is completely autonomous;
- To create such a business you do not need large investments, only 100 thousand rubles will be enough;
- There is no need to service the photo booth frequently; 2-3 times a week is enough;
- Such a business can be combined with any other job without any problems;
- A photo booth pays for itself very quickly, provided it is installed in a good location.
In words, everything looks easy and simple, but in reality, problems often arise due to the fact that there are no clients. Even though the device is installed in a very public place. But the success of a business largely depends not so much on how crowded the place is, but on whether visitors to the place need the services of photo booths.
Let's assume that a crowded shopping center has been chosen for installation, through which hundreds and thousands of people pass every day, but there are still no customers. The problem is that in such places the photo booth acts only as an entertainment, which will be used only for the sake of interest or for the sake of a photo as a souvenir, for example, friends or couples in love. But such visitors in shopping centers are a minority, especially since almost everyone has a phone with a good camera, and photo booth services are simply irrelevant.
The most likely way to make good money from a photo booth installed in a shopping center is to provide the walls of the apparatus for advertising. Due to the high traffic, prices for such advertising can be very impressive.
An additional way to make money from such a business is a photo booth with an event backdrop (presswall). You've definitely seen such a background when you looked at photos of stars or watched a report from some event.
Company logos or event information are placed against this background. Renting a photo booth for a wedding, birthday or other event with an information stage can help make the occasion memorable.
The best option is to install a photo booth where people often need 3 by 4 centimeter printed photographs, and such places are registry offices, passport offices, consulates and other similar organizations. Photographer services are much more expensive, and often you have to wait quite a long time, so the services of photo booths are very useful in such cases. Renting space near such organizations will cost much less than in a shopping center, but there may be more problems with permits.
When organizing a business, first of all you need to find a place for installation, and then purchase equipment. The cost of a new photo booth is approximately 80-90 thousand rubles, but at the initial stage you can get by with a used device, then for the same price you can buy two good used photo booths.
One of the most important advantages of such a business is that even with minimal capital you can open your own small business, which, with the right approach, will bring a stable, tangible income.

Photobooth is an entertaining vending machine providing instant photo services. Despite the fact that this is not a new type of business, and the market as a whole is saturated, new entrepreneurs are still installing photo booths. Of course, not with the same intensity as 5-7 years ago, but they are still opening...
The essence of business
A photo booth is a device for taking pictures, which is equipped with powerful software and a printer that immediately produces finished photos. Some types of equipment provide the ability to apply effects, make photo corrections, etc.
Photo booth technology is quite simple. The operation requires no employees other than a maintenance mechanic. The client enters the booth, makes a deposit into the bill acceptor, selects the desired mode or type of photo, and then takes a photo. The client approves the image and receives the finished photos. The scheme is simple for both visitors and the entrepreneur.
Target audience of photo booths:
- Teenagers aged 14-17 who follow trends actively use social networks.
- young people under the age of 30, romantic couples who take joint photos as a souvenir.
- people aged 30 years and older - their goals can be different, ranging from those described above and ending with photographs for documents.
- corporate clients who order photo booth rental for events.
- wedding planners or direct customers who want to rent a photo booth for their wedding.
As you can see, the target audience of photo booths is quite wide, so you will not have any difficulties finding clients or places of their presence.
What's so attractive about a photo booth?
The answer is simple: both respectable gentlemen and attractive ladies like to please themselves in their photographs. And a mobile photo booth makes this opportunity as accessible as possible to everyone. You don't need to look for a good photographer, you are completely relaxed and left only to yourself. Just go to the nearest booth and make cute faces to yourself. In this case, you receive the photo instantly.
It's funny, isn't it? But this cannot actually leave even an extremely shy person indifferent.
can capture any of your memorable moments cheaply , Just a couple of minutes, and your memories will remain with you in the form of a fresh photo. Even world stars do not neglect this activity. In the best private collections you can find memorable photographs from Marilyn Monroe, Salvador Dali, Audrey Hepburn or Andy Warhol.
Today, renting a photo booth for a holiday is no longer uncommon for our market, so it’s strange to learn that just 30-40 years ago in the Soviet Union, these devices were banned, like all other manifestations of the “bourgeois way of life, alien to the real Soviet man.” "
Only with the onset of the 90s did photo booths begin to appear on our streets. Then they began to provide the user with the opportunity to take not only black and white, but also, naturally, color photographs.
Advantages and disadvantages of business
As with any type of business, there are pros and cons. Assess your capabilities, prospects and risks in advance.

Benefits of a business idea
It’s worth starting with the fact that few businesses can boast such a high level of profitability. Typically, a photo booth business plan sets the payback period for the project at 6 months. In order to fit into it, you just need to choose the right place.
In addition, almost anyone can start a business, since this requires only a small initial capital. The compactness of the cabin allows you to save money on rent, and the lack of permanent staff saves money on wages.
Indeed, the autonomy of the installation is of no small importance. This means that it is enough to inspect it and carry out diagnostics once every 2 weeks. This option is perfect for those who dream of passive income.
Of course, you shouldn’t rely on the fact that an instant photo program will allow you to lie on the couch all day long. It can also have glitches that even an experienced specialist will have to tinker with.
How can you make money from a photo booth?
Modern photo booths provide a varied range of services.
Depending on the equipment, you can earn money in the following ways:
- photography for fun.
You need to offer clients multiple arrangements of small photos in a collage (usually 3 or 4 photos in a row) and the ability to print instantly. Provide additional options - a wide selection of filters, frames, etc.
- photographs for documents.
This service is always in demand and relevant. The only condition: there are many requirements for such photos. In a regular photo studio, the client can rely on the help of a photographer, but in the case of a photo booth, he will have to take the photo himself. Therefore, it is important to install high-quality software with a simple interface, as well as place instructions in the photo booth.
- photo postcards.
Modern software allows you to add templates for postcards and change them. For example, you can make them themed depending on the season or the location of the booth.
- photo printing.
Another useful option is the ability to print photos from a flash drive or from social networks, as well as send photos from the photo booth to the client’s email.
- photo booth rental.
To do this, you need to purchase a lightweight mobile model that is easy to disassemble and can be installed anywhere. Photo booths are rented by organizers of private events: birthdays, weddings, corporate events, graduations, etc. For private events, photo booths usually include a set of props - these can be various glasses, hats, false mustaches, wigs, masks, etc.
- placement in open areas.
The equipment is also suitable for stationary use in open areas (subject to good weather). You can place a photo booth in parks, fairs or squares where city events are held. In one day of work at a festival, a photo booth can bring in half a month’s income.
You can choose one service or cover several at once, which will increase your profits. It all depends on the type of photo booth, the project budget and the concept of the business itself. The more thoughtful the service delivery scheme is, the faster the investment will pay off.
Experienced businessmen recommend installing photo booths on the ground floors of cinemas and 24-hour entertainment centers.
Photo booths in the subway are also a good idea for a budding businessman. In addition, instant photo booths can be used near airports, train stations and higher educational institutions.
What does a modern photo booth look like?
Modern photo booths have undergone some changes in their design since they came into being. Progress makes its own adjustments to all processes. However, the basic principles have remained unchanged. Today we still have two design options for photo booths:
- Stationary, which is installed in any place accessible to everyone. Restaurant and hotel lobbies, train stations, shopping centers and airports, small cafes and fairly respectable establishments do not neglect to offer a similar service to their guests.
- Mobile or mobile photo booth. This is a different story. Such booths are easy to install and transport. They can appear in any place to entertain guests and create a relaxed atmosphere at any event.
Today, a photo booth for a holiday is becoming one of the must-have entertainments. It is ordered both for large corporate events and small private companies. A photo booth for the New Year is almost a tradition for holiday decoration. With its help, vivid memories instantly replenish your album of memories.
At first, such entertainment was only for the rich and famous, since the cost of a photo booth was quite high. And, it is worth noting, domestic stars quite successfully helped their promotion. It is a reliably known fact that at the wedding of one of the Ukrainian bankers, a rented photo booth took more than 2,000 photos in one evening! And this is far from the first, and in fact not the only, case when a photo booth is rented for a wedding.
Case planning
First you need to create a business plan or at least a simple financial calculation for opening a photo booth. First you need to assess the market situation. The following questions are worth considering:
- Are there similar services in your city? If there are competitors, what are the advantages of your project?
- Is there a demand for this type of service?
- Who is your potential client (age, interests, budget)? It is important to create a portrait of your target audience.
- What are the business conditions like in your region?
- What are the business prospects and potential of your target audience?
The more practical information you collect, the easier it will be for you to move forward. In addition, the business plan must include a calculation of the costs and income of the project, a description of the concept and an assessment of risks. A well-drafted business plan will help you avoid unnecessary expenses and mistakes at the start.
Business expansion
When starting your own business, you always need to remember two things:
- Opportunities to go bankrupt and go broke.
- The need for expansion and constant investment in business.
The first point may simply be a consequence of the fact that the second was not fulfilled. A photo booth business plan is no exception. It should provide for the further development of the project.
This program can be implemented in various ways. The first of them is to increase the number of points at which services will be provided. Moving along this path, you can increase profits for some time, but at some stage stagnation and recession will occur.
Therefore, the second way involves introducing diversity. You can engage in slightly different activities, for example, open a studio specializing in professional photo shoots, or a salon selling professional photographic equipment. The only limitation in this matter is the imagination of the business owner.
In our fleeting age of high technology, many things that are familiar to us lose their relevance, and then completely cease to exist as unnecessary, and having received the stamp “archaism” they are sent to the dustbin of history. Thus, in due time, floppy disks and cassettes sank into oblivion. Very soon their number will be replenished with CDs and DVDs as storage media, and, most likely, paper versions of newspapers and books (although there is a very lively debate about the latter). Thus, using the example of the same DVDs, we can see how a once irreplaceable technology, having worked for about 20 years for the benefit of humanity, is gradually being replaced by more modern and convenient media. However, there are examples of how a device created almost a hundred years ago not only does not fall into decay, being replaced by more modern ones, but continues to be at the peak of popularity and even increases interest in its person. I believe that from the title of the article it has already become clear that today we will talk about such a device as a Photobooth. In this article I will try to look in detail at all aspects of creating a successful business, the fundamental part of which is a machine for creating instant photographs.
Business registration
Before you begin active organizational actions, you should register your business. You can choose individual entrepreneur or LLC. The OKVED code in this case will be 74.20 - Activities in the field of photography. Select simplified tax system 6% as your tax system.
The advantage of this business is that to open it you do not need to obtain any permits from the SES and other services. Also, in many regions of the Russian Federation, regulation of the activities of the self-employed is being introduced. You can read more about this here.
Photo booth location
The right location for a photo booth is one of the main success factors. You will need to find 2 sq. m of retail space in places where your target audience gathers.
Suitable for photo booth:
- cinema hall,
- shopping mall,
- zoo,
- circus,
- anti-cafe
In such places, people are always in a good mood and, most likely, they will want to capture pleasant moments.
During high season, you can set up a photo booth in a park or on the beach. Photo booths at airports, bus and train stations are also appropriate - this simple entertainment will brighten up people’s waiting time.
A photo booth can be used not only for entertainment, but also for benefit. A significant share of the profit comes from photographs on documents. In this case, it would be advisable to place the photo booth next to the passport office, universities, MFCs, driving schools, etc.
And if you plan to only rent photo booths, you can do without a retail outlet at all, accept orders via the Internet and by phone, and store the photo booth at home. In the future, you can rent a small office for meetings with clients and storing equipment. In this case, it is better to look for a place near the offices of wedding agencies and organizers, wedding salons and other places where you can attract the attention of your potential clients.
A few tips that will come in handy when choosing a location:
- Immediately exclude the option of an open area as the main way to earn money. Photo booths are not designed to be outdoors for long periods of time. If used incorrectly, the equipment can quickly fail. In addition, in open areas there is a higher risk of vandalism.
- Choose areas with high foot traffic. The photo booth needs to be visible because it advertises itself.
- When assessing the trafficability of a place, take into account exactly those pedestrians who are part of your target audience. For example, a common mistake is to choose places only in shopping centers, since the flow of people there is really high. But sometimes you won’t surprise anyone with the entertainment of photographs there - most visitors always have a phone with a camera. Of course, among them there will be those who want to take pictures in the photo booth, but there won’t be many of them. If you decide to place a photo booth in a shopping center, be sure to provide for the possibility of additional income by providing space for advertising. You can install a luminous advertising box on the photo booth.
How to choose equipment
Photo booth technology is simple. Almost all processes are performed automatically. Your task is only to load photo paper for the printer, carry out collection and monitor the serviceability of the equipment. So the constant presence of an employee is not required.
Modern photo booths are equipped with a printer for photos and receipts, a cash register, a monitor with a simple interface and a camera. Please note that the photo booth has a fiscal registrar, a bill acceptor and change issuance, as well as an online cash register.
What to look for when choosing a photo booth:
- Photo quality.
The most important thing is a quality product. In this case we are talking about photographs. Make sure your photo booth has good optics (such as Canon). Another factor in quality photos is the printer. Photo booths usually have inkjet or heat-sublimation printers installed. Inkjet photo printers are usually used - this is a more budget option that provides good print quality.
- Lighting.
Proper lighting also affects the quality of the image. To do this, the location of the lamps in the cabin, their power and distance to the object are carefully selected.
- Booth decoration.
An attractive exterior design of a photo booth helps attract customers. Therefore, the design should look attractive. This is especially important if you plan to provide photo booths for events. Also, some landlords may have questions about the design - the administration of the shopping center is sometimes picky about the design of retail outlets. The design also includes an information stand, from which the client can immediately understand what services he can receive and how much it will cost.
- Cabin body.
Cabin body materials are another important point. Not only the appearance, but also the strength of the entire structure depends on this. The simplest and most cost-effective option is a chipboard body fastened with a metal profile. But such cases wear out faster, become loose and lose strength. In a word, it is a less reliable material. Problems may also arise with cabins that use plastic - it is difficult to obtain a safety certificate for such equipment. This will make it difficult to place in certain areas. Metal cabin bodies are much more durable and safer.
- Software.
Photo booths are equipped with a powerful computer with special software. Study it carefully: how long has the program been working with this equipment, whether there have been any failures, how simple and clear the interface is, how often updates to the program are released. It is recommended to select Windows-based software, since all equipment built into the cab has driver disks for Windows OS. An additional advantage will be the ability to independently modify the program, change settings, and download templates.
- Manufacturer.
As a rule, the manufacturer supplies a ready-made set of equipment. You should check that all equipment is from publicly available brands. In case any part breaks, you will have to look for a replacement. Equipment from unknown brands is more difficult to find. It is also necessary to familiarize yourself with the warranty statements.
Also pay attention to the following points:
- reviews about the seller on third-party resources;
- availability of documents for the cabin;
- additional offers for delivery, installation and configuration.
There are different manufacturers on the market today, so you are sure to find an option that suits your business. The cost of equipment varies from 90 to 300 thousand rubles. It all depends on the model of the built-in camera and additional options. A photo booth with high-quality photographic equipment will cost about 200 thousand rubles.
To save money, you can purchase used equipment. But keep in mind that in this case the risk of breakdown increases. Experienced entrepreneurs recommend renting photo booths from specialized companies.
The price of the question: can an Instagram photo booth be profitable?
Let us answer immediately and unequivocally: it can and does bring it. The main secret to the profitability of Instaprinter is its versatility. Here we can highlight the following:
- It can be mounted and connected to work anywhere without the need for additional equipment.
- The instaprinter allows the user to print any pictures from Instagram using their own account.
- It is quite possible to print on it not only photos, but also photo magnets, which will be an excellent reminder to guests about the holiday or an additional advertising product to attract potential customers.
- Instaprinter's photos can be branded in a corporate style and carry additional meaning, which makes the service very popular at various PR events, exhibitions or salons.
- The device provides the highest print quality, images have excellent resolution, good resistance to sunlight and high humidity. Such pictures last a long time.
The payback for a photo booth happens quite quickly.
Tip: When calculating how much a photo booth costs and how much profit you plan to make from it, pay attention to the features of the models you are considering. More modern equipment will be able to offer relevant services to your potential clients for longer, and therefore work for your well-being.
All other secrets of your commercial success will depend solely on your desire to actively earn money. And the number of regular clients for renting a photo booth only increases every year. So, if the process is properly organized, such a business can be a good help even for a person with a small start-up capital.
How much will you have to invest in the business?
The amount of initial investment may vary - it all depends on the selected equipment and business model. Cost estimates are for one photo booth. In this case, to start you will need:
- 200 thousand rubles - for the cabin itself;
- 10 thousand rubles – for the delivery and installation of a photo booth;
- 5 thousand rubles – for registration of individual entrepreneurs and all organizational issues;
- 5 thousand rubles – for renting a place to install a cabin;
- 5 thousand rubles – for consumables
In total, about 225 thousand rubles will be required.
Financial component of business
A business project is always a complex economic task that requires active action for implementation and initial financial investments. Among marketers and entrepreneurs, the success of an entire endeavor is assessed after 4-5 months from the date of opening.
Even if at the initial stage the costs do not meet expectations, it is possible that after some time, everything will change dramatically. The same applies to the photography business, in all its manifestations.
Cost of opening and maintaining
To install a photo booth, a future entrepreneur will need to pay at least 170,000 rubles. Of them:
- 800 rubles – state fee for registration of individual entrepreneurs;
- 150,000 – purchase and installation of a cabin (in some organizations, the seller offers to purchase on credit or in installments, which significantly reduces the level of initial costs);
- 9,000 rubles – rent;
- 20,000 rubles – regional tax;
- maintenance and paper costs - 20,000 rubles.
Amount of future income
To determine the profitability of a photography business, you will need to use a special formula: (monthly traffic + cost of one photo) – expenses.
If the monthly person flow is 150, and ideally this figure should reach 210 and the cost of one snapshot is at least 12 rubles (2 rubles for the snapshot itself - 10 rubles for printing), then we multiply the cost of the snapshot by the estimated number of people per month and get 1,800 rubles .
It is worth recalling that the formula includes the cost of only 1 photo, and each client can take much more
Taking into account expenses, it turns out that the level of net profit should reach at least 20,000 rubles, if we subtract the costs:
- for rent (9,000 rubles);
- for photo paper (225 rubles);
- for the fiscal registrar and others.
Payback period
If we take into account the initial cost of opening and maintaining equal to 170,000 rubles and the level of monthly profit of 20,000 rubles, it turns out that the photo booth will fully pay for itself in no less than 1.5 years of operation.
Taking on a new, little-known business project is always difficult. The main problem in implementation is the level of consumer demand for the service. After all, many are accustomed to turning to photo salons or a private photographer. In addition, the degree of computer literacy of the population is rarely above average, therefore, at the initial stage you will still have to personally participate in the work process.
Promotion
In this business, it is not necessary to conduct a large-scale advertising campaign. The photo booth itself is an advertisement. The most important thing is to choose the right place. The number of clients and the amount of profit will depend on it. You can build an advertisement on an attractive design, sign or stand with information about the provision of a service.
Word of mouth also works well. However, it will not work immediately, since the photo booth does not have many visitors. You can attract customers with discounts during the holidays. Distribute flyers among your target audience, create an account on social networks - there are many of your potential clients on the Internet.
In addition, you can offer cooperation to organizations with a similar target audience. For example, a wedding agency will be interested in an offer to rent a photo booth, and some establishment will support the idea of installing entertainment equipment.
If you plan to rent out a photo booth, place ads on the Internet: starting from the Avito website and news platforms in your city, ending with specialized sites for event business.
Financial plan
At the start, you definitely need to plan not only the initial investment, but also monthly expenses. In this case they will be minimal:
- Rent – 5 thousand rubles
- Maintenance of a payment terminal – 2 thousand rubles
- Consumables – 3 thousand rubles per month
- Taxes – 3 thousand rubles
- Advertising – 2 thousand rubles
In total, monthly expenses amount to 15 thousand rubles.
How much can you earn from a photo booth?
If you install the device in a public place, then 15 people can use the photo services per day. That is, the approximate monthly attendance will be 400 people. One photo print costs 150 rubles, based on this, you can receive revenue of 60 thousand rubles per month. After deducting expenses, there will be a net profit of 45 thousand rubles. Thus, in just 4 months of work you can recoup the initial investment.
If we consider the situation with renting a photo booth, then an hourly rental costs about 15 thousand rubles. This means that only 3-4 events per month will allow you to reach the same amount of net profit.
Organizational plan
Even though a photo booth doesn't require any time investment from you, it still needs care and maintenance. In terms of employees, these are a mechanic and an accountant. The first monitors the technical condition of the cabin, tracks the consumption of materials for printing photographs and receipts, and replenishes them. If necessary, he corrects problems. He can perform preventive maintenance checks on the photo booth once a week.
You will also need an accountant, you can outsource him. Employees will cost you relatively little, because their schedule will be flexible, and the accountant can work remotely. The fee for the latter will be 2,500 rubles per month, and for the technician - 10,000 rubles. You will also need someone to hand out flyers every month. This random person will work for 200 rubles per hour for two hours a month.
Business pitfalls
At first glance, a photo booth business seems very simple. But in reality, there are various risks that can ruin your profit plans.
- Technical risk.
This business relies on only one piece of equipment, so any breakdown is a loss. The likelihood of damage increases if the photo booth is not new. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that it works properly. Regularly check the condition of the equipment, ensure the maintenance of the equipment and purchase it from trusted manufacturers. Choose equipment that has a problem notification system. Or negotiate with the security guards of the shopping center or “neighbors” at the trading floor so that they notify you of technical malfunctions.
- Lack of demand for the service.
This is quite possible if the idea is implemented in a city with a population of less than 500 thousand people. You can avoid risk at the business planning stage.
- Errors in choosing a location.
The main factor in the success of a photo booth is the correct location. Otherwise, you can’t count on high profits. Therefore, carefully analyze all potential locations for installing a photo booth. But even if the chosen location does not meet your expectations, the mobility of the equipment allows you to change the location.
- Vandalism
– this is a problem for all vending businesses that operate with the same equipment without supervision. You can protect yourself from risk by choosing photo booths from reliable materials, installing an alarm system, and concluding an agreement with the landlord that provides for financial liability for damage to property. You can often find a photo booth bolted to the floor - this is also a way to secure the equipment.
- Seasonality
– this factor is also worth taking into account, since it affects profitability. The seasonality period will be different for each location. For example, if a photo booth is located near a university, then sales will peak in June and July, when applicants apply. But a photo booth in a shopping center will be in high demand on holidays and weekends, when people spend their leisure time and relax. Consider seasonality when planning when to open a business. It is advisable that the outlet opens shortly before the peak of sales.
All of the above risks can be safely prevented or eliminated in time without wasting time and money. By anticipating these pitfalls, you can avoid unnecessary expenses, which means you can earn more.
Standard photo booth or Instagram photo booth?
Regardless of whether you are interested in a one-time rental of a photo booth for a holiday decoration or you want to build a business with their help, you should definitely spend a little time and, of course, understand the features of modern devices.
We have already talked about the designs of existing photo booths. Let's understand technology. The ubiquitous Internet, as well as related processes to speed up the transfer of information, have reached here. It is difficult to imagine any modern person who would not use the services of the popular Instagram service. A variety of people do not hesitate to post their selfies related to any bright moments there.
To provide the ability to quickly print your photos from Instagram, the modern Instrapress cabin appeared. Now, by going to any place where it is installed, any user has the opportunity to instantly receive their pictures by specifying only the correct command.
, the Instaprinter photo booth represents the so-called next step in the development of technology. This is a promising direction, which is advisable to take a closer look at first of all for those who plan to create their own business in this area. This is an excellent investment and a promising direction that will gain relevance every day.
