About Us · Penrith, Cumbria

Fifteen Years of Making Events More Fun

Funny Photo Booth started in 2010 with one booth, one van and a simple idea: a photo booth should be the easiest thing you book for your event. Fifteen years and more than 500 events later, we’re still based in Penrith — and still small enough that when you call, you talk to the person who’ll actually be running your booth.

That person is Andon. He answers your first email, loads the van, sets up before your guests arrive, keeps the props table in order, shows Nan which button to press, and sends your gallery over once the dust settles. There’s no agency in the middle and no stranger turning up on the night.

Being local matters in this line of work. We know the function rooms at venues like the Inn on the Lake, Lodore Falls Hotel, Tullie House and Askham Hall — where the power sockets are, how tight the corridors get, and where a booth works best. From Carlisle to Kendal, Windermere to Gretna Green, chances are we’ve already worked a night at your venue.

Why Venues and Couples Trust Us

The unglamorous stuff that keeps your night running smoothly, and means your venue manager has nothing to chase.

Fully Insured

Professional public liability insurance with every booking, so your venue and your guests are always protected.

We Bring Our Own Power

Everything runs off our own portable power station, so we’re not hunting for sockets or taping cables across your venue’s floor.

We bring backup gear to every single event. In over 15 years, we’ve never failed to deliver.

Attended, Always

A friendly attendant stays with the booth all night — keeping the queue moving and the props flowing.
