FAQs

Speedway is an open concept photo booth. What exactly does that mean?

You and your guests will be taking photos in the open, instead of entering inside a fabric enclosure. You will face our kiosk that features an interactive touchscreen. The backdrop of the photos is a location of your choice at your venue. We recommend using a flat neutral colored wall for the best results.

What if I prefer to have an enclosed booth?

You can upgrade to have a privacy enclosure for only $50. This option comes with a built in backdrop for a more private experience.

What are my other backdrop options?

You can upgrade to add a custom printed step and repeat backdrop. Choose between Vinyl for $395 and Dye Sublimated Fabric for $895. We will step and repeat up to 2 logos along with our logo on a 8′x8′ backdrop for a true red carpet experience.

What if I want to provide my own backdrop?

You are welcome to set up a backdrop of your choosing. For the best results, we recommend a backdrop that is 8 feet x 8 feet.

What does the layout of the photo strips look like?

Below is our standard layout; each strip is 2″x6″. You will receive 2 copies of each photo booth sitting. The strips are auto-cut by our printers.

What if I would like to add custom text to my prints?

You can add on Name Customization for $50. We can place a logo or a single line of text in the area below the photos. You can customize the font, font colors and border color. See below for examples.

*The Speedway web address is required at the top of all prints. Per your request, the color of the text can be changed to match your design.

What makes Speedway photo booths different and better than the competition?

We invest in the very best Canon DSLR camera equipment and the fastest photolab dye-sublimation printers (6 secs per print), ensuring photo quality that rivals professional studios at up to 5 times the speed! This means many more higher quality photos in the same time period than the competition. We carry proper liability insurance, factory train and only hire the most friendly professional technicians, ensuring a stress-free professional experience.

What if I find a lower price elsewhere?

You can be easily fooled by a lower competitor’s price, slower session times usually mean you’ll end up paying more $ per photo. Send us a competitor’s quote and we will do a free comparison by phone with you to highlight the differences if any. It is easy to cut corners with limited customer service, lower quality cameras, printers, computers, or even the paper. Our combination of professionally dressed factory trained technicians, premium papers and electronics ensure the highest quality possible, fastest photo session processing and quickest printing times. In fact, find a lower price of an equal quality and service photo booth and we will beat their price by 10%.

Set Up and More

How long before my event start time does the booth technician arrive to set up?

Our technicians are scheduled to arrive 45 minutes-1 hour before your booked start time. Setup is fast and easy, taking around 10-15 minutes.

What if I want my photo booth to be outdoors?

We require that our photo booth be covered and protected from any inclement weather, such as, but not limited to, rain, direct sunlight, and high wind.

Do I need to provide my own extension cord?

Your venue is required to provide electricity within 8ft of the photo booth location as our booth has a built-in 8ft extension cord. Check your local building codes to make sure you are meeting code. If you are in a location that doesn’t have power, you can rent a battery generator from us for $75.
