Ajax is a family town at heart. Weekends here mean birthday parties in community centre halls, backyard barbecues that turn into dance parties, cultural celebrations that bring three generations together, and summer evenings along the lakefront trail. When you want everyone, from toddlers to grandparents, laughing in the same photo, a photo booth is the easiest way to make it happen.
Birthdays of every size
Ajax families celebrate big: first birthdays, sweet 16s, 18ths, 21sts, 40ths and 70ths. Whether the party is in a rented hall or the basement rec room, the booth becomes the centre of the fun.
Kids' parties

Milestone adults

Community halls & recreation centres
Ajax’s community centres and banquet spaces host everything from reunions to christenings, and many host groups book them for cultural celebrations: Caribbean, South Asian, Filipino, West African and more. These rooms are practical, with plenty of space, easy load-in and accessible power, so they’re ideal for a booth. We’ll bring the glamour with the right backdrop and lighting, and our attendant keeps the energy up from start to finish.
Cultural celebrations & holidays
In Ajax, the calendar is full: Diwali, Eid, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Lunar New Year and Caribbean-themed parties all year. We’ll help you style the booth for your celebration, from vibrant florals to festive shimmer walls and props that reflect your traditions. See backdrops and holiday parties.
Waterfront & backyard summers
The Ajax waterfront is one of the best stretches of Lake Ontario shoreline in the region, and summer brings family reunions, graduation parties and engagement celebrations to parks and backyards nearby. For outdoor setups we just need a level surface, an outlet and a tent or canopy. The Wooden Mirror Photo Booth looks especially at home outdoors.
Weddings in Durham Region
Ajax couples often host their reception at banquet halls in Ajax and Pickering, or at golf and country venues in Durham. We’ll match the booth to the venue’s style and your colour palette. Many couples add the Audio Guest Book so grandparents and relatives can record their blessings. See weddings.
Local businesses & schools
Ajax’s businesses, schools and community groups use our booths for staff appreciation nights, school dances, grad celebrations and fundraisers. Branded templates make it easy to include your logo or school name. See corporate events.
Getting the most from your Ajax booth
Set up near the action
Put the booth close to the dance floor or the cake table, not in a side room.
Have the DJ announce it
One shout-out brings a wave of guests.
Give the kids a turn early
Younger guests often leave first, so make sure they get photos before bedtime.
Share the gallery
Post the online gallery link in the family group chat the next day. It keeps the party going.

Ajax booth questions
Can you set up in a basement or a home rec room?
Yes, as long as there’s enough floor space and ceiling height for the booth. Tell us the room size and we’ll suggest the right booth.
Is a photo booth good for a kids' party?
Absolutely. Kids love the props and the instant prints, and our attendant keeps things safe and organized.
Do you travel to Ajax from Toronto?
Yes. Ajax and the rest of Durham Region are part of our regular service area. There’s no travel fee on most booths; a travel fee applies only to the Drop-off Selfie Photobooth.
Can we have prints and digital copies?
Yes. Print booths include real unlimited instant prints, and guests can also send copies to their phones by email or QR code.
Can you set up at a large Ajax banquet venue?
Yes. Big halls like the Ajax Convention Centre or Deer Creek usually have the space and power a booth needs. We confirm the booth spot, power and load-in time with the venue's event team before the day.
Can the booth go outside at a summer picnic by the lake?
Yes, as long as it's under a tent, canopy or covered pavilion that protects it from rain and direct sun, on a level surface, with power nearby.
Do you set up at Ajax community centres?
Yes. Community and recreation centre halls work well. We just need a standard outlet, about 8 x 10 ft of floor space for most booths, and parking for our equipment.
Which booth is best for a big family celebration in Ajax?
For prints that everyone takes home, choose the Mirror or Classic photo booth. For a high-energy moment, add the 360 Video Booth. Not sure? Take our photo booth quiz or ask us.
How early should we book for a Saturday in Ajax?
Four to six weeks ahead is a good minimum. Saturdays from May to October and December holiday dates can fill up much earlier.
Do you also cover Pickering?
Yes. Pickering is right next door and we serve both cities the same way. See our Pickering photo booth rental page for local ideas.
How much space does the booth need in a home?
About 8 by 10 feet for the booth, the backdrop and a short line, plus one standard outlet. Most Ajax basements, garages and living rooms have room.
Can the template be in another language?
Yes. We can design the print template in Tamil, Urdu, Tagalog, Twi or any language, alone or with English. Send us the exact wording.
