When Framebridge wanted to bring more people into their Greenwich Village store during NYC Pride, they invited Rent My Booth to create an in-store experience that felt joyful, personal, and community-driven. What unfolded was a one-day activation that turned casual foot traffic into heartfelt conversations, framed memories, and genuine brand engagement. From longtime locals to first-time visitors, the photo booth sparked connection—not just content—and gave both guests and staff a reason to celebrate.

If I had a dollar for every time someone asked,
“What do we actually get when we book you?”
…I could buy myself a sequin jacket in every color. But let’s talk about it, because the answer is important.

This isn’t just “rent a box and hope it works” territory. This is a full-on experience—hosted by me, run by me, and designed to make your event feel like the kind of party people talk about on Monday.

Here’s exactly what’s included when you hire me and Rent My Booth for your NYC event:

Photo booth rentals in the city can range from $200 to over $2,000, depending on what kind of experience you're after.

Here’s a quick guide:

• $200–$600 → Very basic setups, digital-only, no printing, usually no host, usually 1-2 hours, and smaller parties

• $600–$1,200 → Where most great booths live (including Rent My Booth!)—prints, pro lighting, fun props, and a real human (Me, Ben!) running the show

• $1,200–$1,500 → Even more customization, upgraded visuals, and added polish

• $1,500+ → High-glam, editorial-style booths (think black & white, no props, Kardashian vibes-- focused on the quality of the photo vs the human experience & fun)

When NYC companies plan their internal events, there’s a growing expectation that these gatherings do more than entertain—they need to reflect company values, drive employee engagement, and create content that supports internal and external brand goals. For many teams, a professional photo booth has become a surprisingly effective solution.

Rent My Booth, a boutique NYC photo booth rental service run by local business owner Ben Hawes, is helping companies rethink what a modern corporate event can look like—and why a well-designed photo booth is more than just a fun extra.

Discover how Rent My Booth brought fun, connection, and unforgettable memories to Ennead Architects’ gold and silver-themed holiday party at One World Trade. From smooth setup to heartfelt moments, this event showcased the power of a photo booth to boost employee morale and celebrate what matters most—the people.
