The Oak Photo Booth: A Statement Piece for Any Party

The Oak Photo Booth: A Statement Piece for Any Party, Captured Celebrations photo booth blog, Los Angeles

Quick Answer

Captured Celebrations rents the Oak Photo Booth across Los Angeles County from $850 for 3 hours, the booth that replaced our retired retro mirror photo booth. It is a solid oak frame on a wooden tripod with a 19-inch touchscreen, and it suits weddings, milestone birthdays, and corporate events alike.

If you searched for a retro mirror photo booth, we should say up front that it is retired. What we rent now is the Oak Photo Booth, and it does the job the mirror used to do at weddings, birthdays, and corporate events across Los Angeles.

What It Is

A solid oak frame standing freestanding on a wooden tripod, built to look like an old plate camera rather than event equipment. A 19-inch vertical touchscreen sits on the back, with a Canon EOS R100 24.1MP mirrorless camera and a DNP DS620A dye-sublimation printer inside.

It captures photos, GIFs and boomerangs. Guests get the files on their phones instantly, and every image from the event lands in an online gallery afterward.

Why It Fits So Many Kinds of Events

A lot of that comes down to what the booth looks like sitting in a room. It reads as furniture, not equipment, so it belongs at a black-tie gala the same way it belongs at a fifteen-year-old's birthday party. Nobody has to build the decor around it.

The touchscreen does the rest of the work. Guests tap through the start screen, follow the prompt, and the booth handles the pose and the print without anyone standing over their shoulder.

Additional hours are $150 per hour. Oak Silver does not print, so start at Oak Gold if you want guests holding something at the end of the night. Prints are one per person per session.

Weddings

Send us your colors and your wedding date, and we design the start screen and the print layout around them. Every guest who steps up sees a welcome customized to your day, not a generic template.

The oak frame sits comfortably in both a grand ballroom and an outdoor garden reception, and it pairs well with a glam booth or audio guestbook if you want a full guest-experience station rather than one activity.

Milestone Birthdays and Sweet 16s

A themed backdrop and a curated prop box turn the booth into the party's centerpiece. Position it near the entrance and it sets the tone as guests arrive, or put it near the dance floor and let the party's energy carry into the photos.

For Sweet 16 celebrations, the GIF and boomerang options are the ones that actually get shared. Teens post them within minutes.

Corporate Events

Add your logo, your brand colors, and your event name to the start screen and the print layout, and the booth becomes a branded touchpoint rather than a rental. It works as an icebreaker at a holiday party, a keepsake at a client appreciation event, and a magnet for foot traffic at a trade show booth.

What Comes With Every Booking

  • Solid oak booth on its wooden tripod with the 19-inch touchscreen
  • Custom start screen and print layout in your colors, with your names or logo

Frequently Asked Questions

How much space does the Oak Photo Booth need?

Roughly a 5 by 5 foot footprint, plus room for guests to stand back from the camera, and a standard power outlet within reach.

Can it be used outdoors?

Yes, under a covered patio, a tent, or another sheltered space. Direct rain or heavy wind is not a good match for the equipment, so for outdoor events we look at the setup location in advance.

How many guests can use it per session?

The booth handles one to a small group comfortably per session, and sessions are unlimited through your rental window, so guests can come back as many times as they like.

Do you provide props?

Yes, a curated prop box matched to your event type, from elegant wedding accessories to colorful birthday props to polished corporate items.

How far in advance should I book?

2 to 3 months out is the safe window, especially for peak wedding season (April through October) and the holiday party season. Weekend evenings fill first.

Is this the same as the retro mirror booth?

No. The mirror booth is retired. This is a different booth, a wood frame on a tripod with a touchscreen on the back rather than a full-length mirror. If a mirror specifically was what drew you here, tell us and we will be honest about whether the Oak Booth gets you there or a different booth in our lineup fits better.
