Photo booth in London can mean two different things: a walk-in studio you pay to use on the spot, or a booth company you hire to show up at your wedding or work party. Both show up in the same search, so we're keeping them clearly labeled as we compare who actually earns the reviews.
Short answer: CHEEEZ Photobooth's Tottenham Court Road studio leads with a perfect 5.0 from 2,206 reviews, the highest review volume on this list, a walk-in Korean-style photobooth you pay to use directly. For event hire, Video360Booth (5.0, 787 reviews) and Showtime Photo Booth (4.9, 757 reviews) are the top-rated companies you'd actually book for a wedding or corporate party.
How we rank London’s photo booth companies
Rating is each business’s live Google average, review volume shows how many customers actually left one. Confidence weighs the rating against that volume, so a perfect score from a couple hundred reviews carries less weight than one from over a thousand. Recency checks whether people are still reviewing the business now. None of these numbers can be bought.
How much does a photo booth cost in London? (2026)
Walk-in studios like CHEEEZ charge a flat per-session fee, while event-hire companies quote per booking based on hire length, booth style, and add-ons like GIF or 360 video. None of the event-hire companies on this list publish a fixed rate card, expect the quote to scale with your event length and guest count.

Event-hire companies travel to venues across Central London and beyond, Shoreditch, Camden, Westminster, and Canary Wharf are commonly named coverage areas, so a photo booth near me search for your event venue should turn up one of these within reach.
What to ask before you book a photo booth
- Is this a walk-in studio I visit, or a booth you bring to my event?
- What’s included in the hire, prints, USB of all photos, a printed guest book?
- What’s the minimum hire period, and what happens if we want to extend on the night?
- Can you customise the print design or booth panels for our branding or theme?
- Do you bring a host or attendant, or is it self-service once set up?
- What space and power do you need at the venue?
Frequently asked questions
Are these rankings paid?
No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge + top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.
What’s the difference between a walk-in photobooth and event hire?
A walk-in studio like CHEEEZ is a fixed location you visit and pay per session. Event-hire companies like Video360Booth, Showtime, and Momentous bring a booth to your own wedding, party, or corporate event.
How did you choose these companies?
We compared every London photo booth business with a real Google review history, weighing rating, review volume, and how recently people are still using them.
How often is this updated?
We last verified this list in July 2026. Pricing and booth availability shift by season, especially around the summer wedding calendar.
Which photo booth is best for a wedding specifically?
Showtime Photo Booth has the strongest track record with wedding reviewers specifically, including repeat family bookings across multiple events.
The bottom line
For a fun session with friends, CHEEEZ’s walk-in studios have the review volume and consistency to be the easy default. For your own wedding or corporate event, Showtime Photo Booth and Video360Booth are the strongest hire options, one for classic prints and keepsakes, the other if you want 360 video instead.
