The Hipster photo booth failed to arrive at my daughter's wedding reception in Cincinnati on 11/15/25, despite receiving a confirmation email on 11/1/25 detailing what to expect from the Hipster Experience. We had paid in advance to secure a discount, but Hipster has not responded to any of our emails regarding this issue. Naturally, we were very disappointed, especially as we were excited to see all the fun photos. The absence of the service is unacceptable, and I'm surprised that a business would allow this, as many venues may refrain from recommending them if they are unreliable. read more

If I could give HIPSTR Photobooth ZERO stars, I would. This company is a complete scam and absolutely ruined a huge part of my wedding. I paid them in full months before my wedding, had everything confirmed, and then... they just never showed up. No phone call, no email, no explanation. On the most important day of my life, they simply disappeared. I got married on June 7,2025. What makes it even worse is the total lack of accountability. After the wedding, I reached out again and again--calls, emails, messages. They never once answered me back. They took my money, vanished, and have ignored me ever since. That is theft, plain and simple. I cannot stress enough how disgusting and unprofessional this company is. They advertise themselves as a fun, trendy photo booth service for weddings and events, but in reality, they are unreliable, dishonest, and completely untrustworthy. Imagine being a bride or groom, thinking you've secured something special for your guests, only to find out you've been lied to and ghosted. That's exactly what happened to me. Please don't make the same mistake I did. Do NOT hire HIPSTR Photobooth. They are a fraudulent company that will take your money, give you nothing in return, and ruin part of your event. Save yourself the stress, disappointment, and anger--and choose literally ANY other vendor. read more

We booked Hipstr for a photo booth at our daughter's wedding on July 13, 2025, and paid in full back in January. Unfortunately, on July 1st--just two weeks before the wedding--we were informed that they still had not assigned a photographer. This, coupled with several alarming emails stating they were "going out of business" and an influx of negative reviews, caused serious concern. After speaking directly with a company representative, Joe and receiving written confirmation that we could cancel and would be refunded within 2-4 weeks, we agreed to cancel. We also recorded the call with their permission. As of today, we have not received the refund, well beyond the promised timeline. We've attempted to resolve the matter privately and have now filed a dispute with our bank. We are extremely disappointed and cannot recommend this company. read more

this is a scam!!!! they dont exist anymore!!!! put down deposit and never heard from them....

I never got my photo album they were suppose to send to me. I was messaging them and they kept apologizing for the delay then I would check again a few months later and they just ignore me now. My wedding was 1 year and 3 months ago and I still never received it. read more

Do not book with this vendor. Apparently something happened to the company after had booked in the Spring of 2024. A month before my wedding we get crazy emails talking about how bad the company is and our event gets cancelled. The company pretended it was a cyber attack but then later said they were having issues. We talked to them and they appeared reasonable and said they would refund us. They also said we were never even going to get printed pictures on site. Despite trying to get our money back they never refunded us. Wish I could give zero stars. read more

I need to be paid for my services from last may. I have followed all of your payment instructions. Please pay us for the services we provided for you in may of 2024. read more

DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM. This place is a SCAM. They never showed up for my daughter's wedding. They sent a text 40 minutes after the start of the event and said they would issue a full refund and two weeks later they have not done so. They are also impossible to get ahold of. read more

They're not really even a photo booth company. They advertise nationally, take leads and then farm out the work to local photo booth companies. The problem is they don't pay the companies they hire. And worse than that they charge at least double if not more what you'd pay a local operator for the same job. We're owed money by them along with many dozen photo booth companies across the US. Avoid at all costs. And yes you can contact me. read more

We used Hipstr and didn't have a good experience. Our photographer showed up over and hour late and was smoking inside the chapel. My wife contacted them and they offered a refund but we never received it. After she left a review they commented that we had been refunded to show they had taken care of the problem. I would not recommend if you are looking for a Photo Booth. read more

Stay away from hipstr if you want your event to actually go as planned and if you want to work with actual professionals. They didn't have my backdrop, didn't bring props, didn't let everyone put addresses in to get their photos.. my wedding was in October and they said since they did such a poor job they would mail me a partial refund and they still haven't 6 months later. read more

They don't return phone calls or emails, and they don't answer phone calls, so you can't talk to anyone. And they haven't been paying many of their vendors! AVOID THIS COMPANY! read more

Got married in October of 2024 and come to find out, many of my guests never received the photos they took when providing their phone number to have the photos electronically delivered. Not only that, I have been reaching out to them since Jan 2025 inquiring about when we would receive out photo album. The packaged we purchased stated it would arrive in 7-10 days and here we are over 4 months out. No response as to why it's taken so long, no tracking number. Just cold emails back and forth between me asking where it stands and nothing being provided. Would not recommend. I still want my photo album though as I paid for it. read more

I feel like I got scammed. Things we paid for that they just straight up did not provide: 1. A real background, it was a green screen thing that didn't work well so the photos are awful 2. Props to take pictures with. Did not provide a single prop. 3. Printed photos for guests. 4. A photo book for us. They have great reviews so maybe this isn't normal but I genuinely just feel like I got scammed. I reached out to them and am hoping to get my money back. read more

I contracted out Hipstr for our company event. I made sure they included printed onsite photos for our event in the contract. When the vendor arrived, he did not have a printer. I was then called by someone letting me know they messed up and can't fix it. He 'assured' me he would make it up to me. I have requested our printed photos for 2 months now and they have done nothing to help. They absolutely ghost you if any problem happens, even if it is the contract. Really sad and embarrassing. This is HIPSTRs fault as they also contract out photobooth vendors to work under them. I would recommend you go with someone who actually owns the photobooth and not sub contracting them. This place does not care, they just take your money. read more

We are a vendor with Hipstr, their company model is to outsource to other Photo Booth vendors. We are one of their top vendors in the Texas area. They owe us over $10000 from Events we did for them and they got paid for their events. They owe vendors all over the United States. Clients pay Hipstr for the service, Hipstr outsource to vendors and Hipstr do not pay their vendors. I would not recommend trusting this company. read more

I was very happy with the photo booth. Shaquille was awesome, he was a great addition to the wedding.

We found Hipstr through a wedding expo and couldn't be more happy with them! They have awesome, personable attendants and amazing quality cameras. Their price was also extremely reasonable and they have one transparent package. They customize your photo sheets and have a lot of really nice options for them. The attendant puts together a scrapbook for you with all of the pictures taken - it's a really nice touch. They also send you your online album immediately - which is awesome. Our guests had a lot of fun with the photo booth. We recommend going with Hipstr if you want a photobooth at your event! read more

Hipstr - Photo Booth Rentals Near Me - New York, New York

I decided to get a photobooth last minute for my wedding and omg I am so happy I choose Hipstr. Literally everyone is still raving about how good the photos came out. They responded very quickly about everything and were so easy to work with. Thank you again for everything! read more

* This rating is for photography services only - the photo booth services are fantastic - 5 big stars for photo booth. * Welp, I received my wedding photos. I've never regretted more choosing Hipstr over a traditional photographer. I'm so sad to write this review. Posting for future growth by the company, so other brides don't sit here like me, wondering if I should have been a jerk and not given them the benefit of the doubt at every turn. - We booked Hipstr for our wedding a year ahead of time. We heard great things about the photo booth experience, and were stoked! Upon discovering the additional services, we looked through the photos they posted on their site, thought they were pretty good, and we struggled to see why other photographers charged so much comparatively. The price was fair, we thought, for what the photos were. So we booked. - We were hoping to chat with our photographer for 20 minutes or so to help them get a sense of who we are and what we like - you know, like people do. There was an e-mail questionnaire, we filled it out and sent it back immediately. No one apparently got it, because they followed up about us not doing it. I have an e-mail chain where they're like "do the questionnaire" and I'm like "I did, did you receive?", and they respond with "Oh, yeah. It's here. Uh, cool." - Two weeks prior to the wedding, I started to sweat about the photographer. I had done all the prep for the day, and was being asked by my day-of coordinator for the photog's info. I e-mailed the company, called the company, got nothing. My day-of coordinator helped, and finally got them to talk to us just a few days before the event. - We had items we didn't know how to handle, and needed to speak to someone about them (like, How do we balance "getting ready" photos? Are you sending one person to each location or do we need to adjust our schedule?). - We finally spoke to our photographer days before the event. She called us while she was driving, and her phone cut out a number of times, making us have to redial the number to reach her. We could barely get a word in. She kept going on about what "her brides" like. This is what we were worried about - we're not traditional folks. For example, we really hate "cutesy" photos that people LOVE to throw on Instagram. We like down-to-earth shots, candid shots. I made mention that we know we only have 500 shots in our package. I would really like to focus on: little moments that go unseen, candid shots of the people we love. I don't want to see 20% of our shots come back as pictures of the table decor. We didn't think these requests were too much. We simply told her what tone we liked to set. - After ending the call, there was still some hesitation because we knew she didn't write anything down (she was driving), and she seemed pretty headstrong about her point of view, treating me like I was some neurotic bride just stressed about the big day. I have to promise you, I wasn't... I asked the coordinator if this was normal, and she confirmed it wasn't. - Day of the wedding. We don't know if/when our photog is going to show up. But she does! She comes up to where I'm finishing my makeup (apparently the "getting ready" photos were out the window at that point), and starts badgering me about what to do. 1 - That's what the phone call was for. 2 - Why are you asking me 100 questions when you know I have a coordinator you can check in with? 3 - You're ruining the last calm moment I have before the insanity starts. But ok, sure, I think, Golden Rule, treat others kindly. So I kindly ask her to check in with our coordinator, and we'll have a great day together! - Well, my hesitation after the phone call was justified. Our photographer hit every "cutesy" photo in the book. Foreheads together, spin her around... ugh. We didn't want to make a big huff, but we did remind her that we really don't like these kinds of photos. Instead of listening, she fought us every step of the way - "No, they'll be cute, do it again, it's so good...". - Now, 5 weeks later, we finally get our photos (which the coordinator and I both had to ask them to provide). 10+ pics of our dessert table. 20+ pics of me fiddling with my shoes. Not aligned with what we wanted at all. Our wedding really was a wonderful night. Yet, looking back at the photos, it's clear we didn't get our money's worth. Our coordinator works with Hipstr a lot, and said she probably won't recommend them anymore based on this experience. The pics aren't the worst - but now I get why good photography is so expensive. read more

See all

Hipstr was great to work with and the photos turned out so well. Everyone at the wedding commented on how fun the photobooth was - and so easy. As the bride, I did not have to do anything at all. I did not get the scrap book after the wedding but they had taken it for me and mailed it to me over night, and it was so much fun going through everyone's notes over the next few days. Plus - the glam filter was VERY flattering :) and they were very easy to work with to develop a fun and creative logo. Would use again! read more

I found Hipstr Photo Booth through a friend. From start to finish Luke and the team were very responsive and helpful. They gave me multiple options to customize our photo frame. This company is a bit pricier than other photo booths out there, but the BEST quality (resolution, backdrop & printing) I've seen! Also, no hidden charges, just one flat rate as shown on their site. This was defiantly one of the highlights at our wedding. The attendant was fast & friendly. Everyone expressed how fun the booth was & that they loved all the photos!! I would defiantly recommend! read more

Hipstr - One of the highlights at our wedding!! - Photo Booth Rentals Near Me - New York, New York

They were quick to respond while booking but are taking their time to respond to fix the huge mistake they made. They put the wrong year on all the prints. I understand mistakes happen but be professional and try to fix it. Very discouraging as this was for my wedding and now all of the guests favors are dated for 2019. I also never received the photo album as PROMISED AND I paid for it. I will be contacting the BBB if they continue to ignore me. read more

Hipstr - Wrong date - Photo Booth Rentals Near Me - New York, New York

I've been to 8 weddings this year and Hipstr has definitely been the best photobooth experience I've had at a wedding. Great props - very organized, quick (surprised at how fast the photo lines were able to go) and very easy to use. You can also send your photos directly to your email afterwards. It's amazing. We had a guy named Luke run the wedding booth. He was wonderful, personable, and very attentive. If I get married in NYC, definitely using them! read more

Thank you Jon and the entire Hipstr team for being there for our wedding despite the circumstances. You guys helped make our wedding as perfect as can be. The pictures came out beautifully with our custom designed layout and all of our guests had a great time. Highly recommend! read more

Everyone at the wedding 11/11/18 commented about how wonderful the photobooth was. The photos came out great. Everyone had a fun time with it. Quick set up, set up really early, handled everything with the venue and didnt come and ask for any support. Pure professional The tech who was working the booth was super friendly and helpful. Always hyping people up and being really friendly. The photobook at the end was a super great touch. I absolutely love everything from this photobooth company, couldnt have been a better vendor. Enthusiastically recommend! No need to look anywhere else! Seriously Reasonable prices for what you get. Pure professionalism. 11/10 would recommend!!!!! read more

Let me tell you - every single person at my wedding loved the photobooth. Johnny was great. At the end of the night I had a beautiful scrapbook of photos and I got my online album back super fast. I am so happy to have worked with Hipstr. One of the easiest vendors at the wedding, and they custom made such cute photo sheets for me. Would use them again in a heartbeat!! read more

Hipstr - Photo Booth Rentals Near Me - New York, New York

We were not sure we wanted to get a photobooth for our wedding, but we are so glad we did and that we went with Hipstr. I think they have since changed their pricing structure, but when we booked with them they just had 1 transparent package that included the whole shebang. When I compared with other photobooths, it was a nightmare trying to compare apples to apples .. but once we did find a way, it was obvious that Hipstr was the right choice, factoring in both economics/value and picture quality. Hipstr were ULTRA organized and ULTRA professional. I never waited more than a few hours for an email response, and they were very systematic about how they "onboarded" me, while still maintaining the flexibility to customize our logo, physical setup, etc. A few weeks before the wedding, they proactively sent me an email with what to expect, which was so welcome in the busiest time of the wedding planning process! Lastly, on the day of, our attendant, Al, was phenomenal. He had an amazing attitude, was polite, professional, and accommodating. He went above and beyond in making our scrapbook (which we ended up using as our actual guestbook for the wedding), and in stopping/starting the camera when people were assembling, as well as adjusting the camera's zoom to accommodate large parties. We felt so lucky to have him there the day of the wedding. I wouldn't hesitate to book Hipstr again. They took all the variables out of the photobooth process and added many features (that I didn't even mention) that I didn't even know were a thing - like hashtag printing (ie if someone posts a pic with your hashtag, it prints to the printer on the spot!) and printing a number of pictures equal to the number of the people in the photo (many companies don't). Just book them! read more

It seems like all of our guests loved the photobooth, it was a HUGE hit and the pictures are great! We received a photo album that guest helped put together that night with their photos with some messages. We love having the memories of our guests enjoying themselves on our night. The one small thing that I didn't love was that our host started the booth 40 minutes earlier than we had discussed (so at the beginning of our cocktail hour, rather than towards the end). It didn't really affect anything, but since our reception went until after midnight, we wanted the photobooth to remain open closer to the end of the reception than it was. read more

I work in the events industry and regularly hire Hipstr Photo Booth for our internal events. They are fantastic with communication and offer the most competitive pricing. The price you are quoted includes EVERY POSSIBLE THING. They have great backdrop options, will work with you to customize your graphics (and they also have template options if you don't feel like designing from scratch). They offer unlimited printouts, they have the hashtag printout option, they bring a monitor that shows live shots (fun option) and every single photobooth attendant I have ever worked with has been SO kind. So naturally, I hired them for my wedding on May 26th. The attendant was awesome and even though photobooths are not really a new thing, my guests really, really loved my booth. I selected the open air booth and love that you can cram large groups in the booth and another really nice touch is that they will make enough prints for every person that was in the shot as well as an extra for your scrapbook. Cannot say enough nice things about my experience with them. If you are interested in working with them, contact them asap so they aren't booked up on your date. read more

We saw how great you just were for one of my friend's wedding in 2014 and knew then we had to book you guys for my wedding in 2017. Thank you for such an amazing experience last night. Eric was super! For anyone looking to book a photo booth for their wedding, look no further. Hipstr provides great customer service as they responded to my wife's inquiries in an extremely timely manner. Their prices are extremely competitive, but they are worth every penny. The services offered can't be matched. My wife and I received copies of every photo in a fabric bonded album, they had great props, a projector presenting all the photos that was taken that night, customizations of the photo strips, and so much more. I've made numerous recommendations, and everyone has been satisfied with their services! Don't wait and miss out such a fantastic company for your photo booth experience at your wedding! read more

We loved the services from the moment that I had booked their services to our actual event. The admin team is very responsive and answered all of my questions. Our guests had a great time with the photobooth and I'm so thankful that our photobooth specialist, Sean/Shawn kept recommending our guests to not only take photos but also do gifs and sign the photo album he had put together for us. We really appreciate the nice photo album that we got to take home and being able to see the gallery right away. No complaints whatsoever. I highly recommend this business and will definitely use them again to all future events. Thank you Hipstr Photobooth! read more

I am so happy and grateful that I used Hipstr Photo booth for our wedding this past May. They went above and beyond on our wedding party and our guests couldn't stop raving about them even after 2 months have passed since our wedding day. Luke was an absolute pleasure to work with, answering all the questions I had before I signed the contract with them. Zach, our Photo booth attendant was great and really fun to work with. I love the fact that they print UNLIMITED copies of the photo strips for each of your guest. 10 ppl step in,10 ppl get a copy. No Need to share! Not only do they have unlimited prints, but they also have a lot (and I mean a lot) of cute props for you and your guest to choose from. They also included a cute scrapbook for us at the end of the night. The quality of the photos was fabulous and they also included a TV display of our wedding hashtag at the venue and the option for our guest to print out Instagram pics that they posted with our wedding hashtags! They also have so many Photo booth backgrounds to choose from and some of the best one I have seen so far! I love both the shimmering gold and shimmering silver glitter background and eventually went with the silver background! Love how they also work with you to design your Photo booth strip designs too. (They gave us so many design templates to choose from!) I cannot stress how much I love Hipstr Photo booth. I highly recommend them to any future bride & Groom to-be who are searching for the perfect Photo booth for their wedding. Seriously, forget about the rest and just go with Hipstr! I know you won't regret it. They will definitely exceed your expectations. read more

This is THE BEST Photo Booth company! They provided our photo booth for our wedding at the New York Botanical Garden this May 3rd and our wedding guests loved it! Their setup is amazing and Luke and his team are absolutely wonderful to work with. They helped add so much fun to our wedding. Guests took home so many pictures. They have the best quality booth, prints and props around. You also get a social media kiosk so guests can email the photos to themselves or post it to social media on the spot, a screen and projector so guests see their photos on a wall, their booth takes video and they had guests put their photos and sign a guest book for us to keep! We used this beautiful gold shimmer background and their cameras made everyone look beautiful! They personalize the photo strip for you (they gave me so many versions to choose from!) and they even let me use their projector and and screen for our slide show in the middle of the reception. And, you and your guests get digital copies of the photos after your event! We love seeing and having all the photos that everyone took. We cannot recommend Hipstr Photo Booth enough. I can't wait to hire them for another event because they added so much fun. And, they're affordable! Book them, you and your guests will love it! read more

Truly great company to work with! Hipstr provided the photo booth at our wedding (June 2016) and Luke & Ryan were awesome. Prior to the event, Luke was a pleasure to work with, helped us customize everything, and was always available to answer any questions we had. During the event, Ryan was amazing and guests loved him. He was fun, helpful, but never overbearing and let guests have their fun in the booth... which they did! Props were awesome, guestbook w/ copies of prints is priceless :) read more

Working with Hipstr was such an enjoyable experience! Luke, Ryan and the rest of the team were just a great group to work with, they really care about making sure the event goes well. We had so much fun doing a photoshoot, the props, background and ease of updating your social media profiles are a huge plus! Highly recommend Hipstr if you're looking to go above in beyond and have a FUN time!!! read more

They were at my wedding in July and they were absolutely amazing! My guest had such a wonderful time. They still come up to me and talk to me about the photobooth we had. The company is so easy to work with its really as they say one package and everything is included. They were so professional and enthusiastic. I loved it if I need another booth for another event I would definitely recommend. read more

We had Hipstr Photo Booth at our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made for that night. Luke was professional and fun and our guests loved every minute of it.

I am beyond happy we decided to use hipstr as our photo booth vendor. They were so easy to work with. Everything from communication during planning up to our actual wedding was a breeze. Our hipstr attendant Tyler was so nice, fun and professional. At the end of the wedding Tyler gave us a photo album with a copy of all our guests photos along with their well wishes. It is an awesome keepsake that will be treasured. If you are looking for a photo booth company that is easy to work with, straight forward, and high quality, choose Hipstr and you won't be disappointed. read more
