FAQs
What’s the difference between the Retro Pod and a Traditional photo booth?
The Retro Pod is an open-air, designer photo booth with pro lighting and a premium camera, delivering studio-level images, instant prints and instant digital sharing—without the bulky enclosure.
Can the Retro Pod match my wedding or brand colours?
Yes. We’ll design your print template and on-screen graphics to your palette and can brand the interface and pod for corporate events.
Do you offer digital-only or print-only packages?
We tailor the setup to your goals: prints, digital, or both—plus GDPR-compliant data capture for lead generation.
Is the Retro Pod suitable for dark venues?
Absolutely. Our diffused continuous lighting is designed for evening receptions and ambient settings.
Do you still offer the Vintage Pod?
The Vintage Pod has been upgraded and renamed the Retro Pod. Expect the same timeless look with enhanced tech.
