FAQs

Frequently asked questions

How much space do you need to set up?
For the freestanding booth we need roughly 2m x 2m of floor space. For Stitch the VW camper we ideally need a level parking spot around 5m x 3m — grass, gravel or hard standing all work.
Do you need a power socket?
No. Both the camper and the freestanding booth run from our own generator, so we're completely self-sufficient wherever your event is.
How long does setup take?
We arrive around 60–90 minutes before your hire starts so we're fully set up and out of the way before your guests notice us. Pack-down takes around 45 minutes.
Do the prints come out on the night?
Yes — photo strips print within seconds of each session and every guest takes a copy home. You'll also receive a full digital gallery afterwards.
Are props included?
Absolutely. Every package includes our full prop box — hats, glasses, signs, wigs and a few seasonal surprises, all cleaned between events.
Do you provide a booth attendant?
Yes — two professional attendants stay with the booth for the entire hire to help guests, top up prints and keep everything running smoothly.
How do I secure my date?
A £100 booking deposit secures your date, with the balance due 30 days before your event. Full details are in our Terms & Conditions.
Do you travel outside Essex?
Yes — we regularly travel across the surrounding counties. Beyond our included travel radius we simply add a small per-mile charge.
