Not all photo booths are created equal. The Velour is our premium DSLR experience. Powered by a Canon EOS R100 Mirrorless camera and professional studio lighting. The result is a level of photo quality you simply can't get from a standard selfie booth.

Your phone camera is good. This is better.

The Velour DSLR Booth is our pop-up studio experience. Same energy as a standard photo booth, same instant sharing, same dedicated attendant, but with gear that takes your photos from fun to genuinely stunning.

📷Canon EOS R100 Mirrorless Camera

24.1MP APS-C sensor with professional grade image quality, the same class of camera used by working photographers.

Pair that with studio umbrella lighting and you get soft, flattering light that looks great on everyone, no harsh shadows, no blown out backgrounds. Just clean, professional photos your guests will actually want to keep.

100+ 5 star reviews!

Perfect For

When the photos
actually matter.

Corporate Headshots

Skip the scheduling hassle of a traditional photographer. The Velour turns any corporate event into a headshot station, guests walk up, get a professional portrait, and walk away with something they can actually use on LinkedIn.

Weddings & Receptions

Wedding photos should look like wedding photos. The Velour's DSLR quality means your guests' portraits from the photo booth are as beautiful as the ones your photographer is capturing on the dance floor.

Family & Personal Shoots

Holiday portraits, birthday sessions, Valentine's Day. We bring the Velour to you. See yourself on screen in real time and walk away with professional studio quality photos the same day. No editing wait, no scheduling a studio. Just show up and look great.

The Velour isn't just for events. We bring the full studio experience to you, corporate offices, event venues, and yes, your living room. Holiday family portraits, birthday shoots, Valentine's Day sessions, we set up on-site, you see yourself on screen in real time, and your photos are ready to share the moment the session ends. No waiting on a photographer to deliver edits weeks later. Just beautiful, professional photos in your hands the same day.

Brand Activations

When your brand is in the frame, you want it looking sharp. The Velour produces content that's genuinely shareable — clean, professional, and branded exactly the way you want it.

Galas & Upscale Events

Some events call for something more refined. The Velour fits right in at black-tie galas, charity events, and award ceremonies — anywhere that presentation matters as much as the experience itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Selfie Booth uses a tablet camera similar to a high-quality smartphone. It's great for most events and the photos look fantastic. The Velour uses a Canon EOS R100 Mirrorless DSLR with professional studio umbrella lighting. The image quality is in a completely different league think the difference between an iPhone photo and one taken by a professional photographer. If you're doing corporate headshots or you just want photos that stand out, the Velour is the one.

  • Absolutely. Black and white is one of our most popular options with the Velour because the DSLR captures detail that makes monochrome really pop. We can set it up for color, B&W, or let guests choose at the booth.

  • Instantly by text, email, or QR code right at the booth. We also deliver a full online gallery and a complete zip file of every photo from your event within 24 business hours.

  • All of the above ,photos, boomerangs, GIFs, and video. Same output options as our Selfie Booth, just at a significantly higher quality level thanks to the DSLR camera.

  • We recommend 4–8 weeks for most events, and 3–6 months for weddings and peak-season corporate events. The Velour books out faster than our other booths so the sooner you reach out the better.

  • We need a minimum 10' x 10' footprint to accommodate the booth, studio lighting setup, and backdrop. Indoor setups are preferred but outdoor is possible with level ground and power access.

  • Yes , that's actually one of the things it's best at. We can set it up specifically for headshots with a clean backdrop and consistent lighting so every team member walks away with a professional portrait they can actually use. It's a much easier lift than booking a photographer and scheduling individual sessions.
