The Mirror Photo Booth
Timeless Elegance & Physical Keepsakes
Our Mirror Photo Booth Melbourne service is designed for those who value sophistication and high-quality photography. Unlike traditional “box” booths, the Mirror Booth is a giant, full-length touch screen that interacts with your guests through colorful animations and voice prompts.
Why It’s a Melbourne Wedding Favorite
The Mirror Booth is a staple in venues across Melbourne CBD, the Dandenong Ranges, Yarra Valley and Mornington Peninsula because it fits the aesthetic of a formal event. It allows guests to see their full-length reflection, ensuring their hair, makeup, and outfits are perfect before the shutter clicks.
- Interactive Technology: “Touch to start” screen and DSLR camera that take studio-grade portraits.
- Physical Prints: Professional physical printouts, a souvenir that ends up on a fridge or desk for years.
- Stylish and modern: Designed to complement any event theme. Choose from a range of frame options: Black, Rustic, LED Colour-Changing, or Gold.
The 360 VIDEO BOOTH
The Ultimate Brand & Social Media Tool
The 360 Video Booth Melbourne is the “viral sensation” of the modern event industry. It isn’t just a photo, it’s an experience. Guests stand on a secure platform while a motorised camera arm rotates 360 degrees around them at high speed.
Perfect for Corporate Brand Activations
If you are hosting a product launch or a corporate gala, the 360 booth is your best marketing asset. It creates high-definition, slow-motion videos that are instantly shareable.
- Digital Reach: Every video is optimised for Instagram Reels and TikTok ready to be shared.
- Custom Branding: Themed overlays and corporate logos applied directly onto the video file.
- The “Celebrity” Experience: A “Red Carpet” moment, the focal point of high-energy Parties and Weddings, Corporate Award Nights and Milestone birthdays.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Which booth is better for a wedding?
Most Melbourne couples prefer the Mirror Photo Booth because it produces physical prints. Guests of all ages, from kids to grandparents, understand how to use it and love taking a photo home. However, if you want a ‘party’ vibe, the 360 Video Booth is a great option too!
Can the 360 Video Booth be used outdoors?
We recommend indoors but yes, provided there is a flat, level surface and protection from the elements as well as access to power outlet. For Yarra Valley vineyard weddings, we recommend a marquee or a solid deck to ensure the rotating arm remains stable and safe.
Do you provide props for both?
Yes, props are included with our Mirror Booths, featuring a variety of fun items such as signs, glasses, and sunstaches.
For our 360 Booths, props are also available upon request, including a money gun, prop signs, and glasses.
How do guests received their digital copies? (Photos from the Mirror Booth and videos from the 360 Booth)
