Chicago Mirror Booth was incredible!! They were able to deliver everything we asked for in such short notice! Communication, speedy service, and the interaction were just a few things that really stood out about Chicago Mirror Booth. On top of that we were able to chose our own design for the photo prints! Paul was really great and easy to work to make sure this event ran smoothly. Definitely will be using this service again!

Excellent service! The owner was great and very helpful. We got the photo booth for our daughter's graduation party and everyone had a blast taking pictures throughout the night. I will definitely be using Chicago Mirror Booth again and will be recommending it to all of my friends and family.

Mark was absolutely incredible at our event, 300 screaming drinking ladies, and he managed to capture the experience perfectly. He showed up on time, was super professional, even bought coffee for some of our staff. The pictures turned out great. The ability to be able to print and get over text was so easy. We're very thankful.

Love the idea that they can take pictures in front of a backdrop, or roam around and take interactive pictures of kids in action. Paul did a great job and that’s who you want. Client was very happy in the end.
