Recurring Costs of your Photo Booth

After your capital investment for the all-in-one photo booth, your recurring cost is in the
paper and ink (or "media kit").  The dye-sub printers are coded, meaning they only work
with paper and ink cartridges carrying the manufacturer's coded chip.  The cost for the
paper and ink kit totals $0.75 per vend (or double-print). 

With a market rate around $5 per use, you can profit $4.25 per customer.  For event operators,
a $1200 charge for a four-hour rental would cost around $150 in materials. 

Transportation and marketing for your photo booth services are costs for your business too,
so don't forget to budget for them accordingly.  But other than paper and ink, the booth
itself does not incur regular expenses.  Keep it clean and maintained, and the photo booth
components will last many years for you just as they are for other photo booth owners.
