Frequently Asked Questions

This is one of the most common questions we get asked...  

A photo bus is a unique twist on the traditional photo booth. Sierra is a 1968 Volkswagen Microbus, that we transformed into a mobile photo booth. Which means we bring the party to you! We usually draw a lot of attention as we pull up, mostly because of the iconic nature of the Volkswagen Bus, but she sure is beautiful too. 

Catch “Our Vintage” vibes inside, with a 1960’s TV, a classic bellows Camera and award-winning interior. Press the arcade button, which is built in to the armrest, and start your photo booth session. From there…the fun begins! Once you’ve captured your 3 pictures, make your way to the back of the Bus and snag your photo strip prints and VIOLA…a Photo Bus! 

BUT WAIT...THERE”S MORE, Sierra also doubles as a backdrop for photo sessions, or with our Open Air Social Booth! Regardless of the event, Sierra will help you make it a memorable one.

The Photo Bus can be plugged into any normal 110v 10 amp 3 prong outlet, making it easy for us to power up the fun!  Inside is a vintage 1960's TV, which we customized in to a photo booth. With a top of the line Canon DSLR camera built in to an old bellows style housing, the picture quality on the strips, will stand the test of time. Hop in the bus and press the blue arcade style button, built in to the armrest, and let the fun begin. 

Every package includes unlimited instant prints, an assortment of fun props, personalized photo strips, on-site attendant(s) and free setup & tear down. 

We also have a pearl backed PHOTOS sign on top of the bus, your guests are sure to know where to go to enjoy the fun! Once at the bus, let the fun begin with an assortment of fun & entertaining props, hats and masks that will keep your guests laughing & having fun! We can also have music playing inside the bus. (this can be turned off as to not interfere with a DJ or the events music.) We can also connect our sound system to your events sound via Bluetooth, so the music will be the same, this depends on your Dj or events setup.)

The photo strips will print out in the back of the Bus. This way your guests can return their props and allow for the next group of Photo Bussers to get in and start their picture session!

Standard packages include the 2 photo strip prints, each is 2"x6". We offer an upgrade to the 4"x6" postcard style option, if that is preferred.

We ask that you provide a minimum of a 10' deep x 20' wide x 8' high space for the bus to be parked at your event. This allows for you and your guests to have the room to navigate around the bus to get the prints and the props. Ideally, a 15' deep x 20' wide x 10' high space would offer the best experience for your event and your guests! The bus can fit in a garage, that's where we keep her, so access points can be smaller, than the final staging area!

YES!! We do need written consent from your venues coordinator to allow the bus to be setup indoors. We will need an access point of a minimum of 8' wide x 7' high, but we can always come out and check the space to make sure it is wide enough and tall enough for the bus to fit through.

We have a canopy, made for VW buses, that attaches to the roof racks on the bus,. This provides a dry area for your guests to enter and exit the bus. Their is also a large 7'x11' roll of artificial turf that we lay out in front of the entry to the bus. We can have an easy up tent for the back of the bus to cover the guests while they grab their props and get their prints! If you have tents or coverings already, please let us know!

Depending on the add-on options, but typical setup takes about 45 - 60 minutes. Setup and tear down time is free and does not take away  from your specified time.
