A local, Essex-based team who genuinely care about making your event special — without the cut-off times and hidden extras the big companies are known for.
Hire Essex was built on a simple idea: an event feature like a photo booth should be there for the whole celebration, not packed away two hours in. That's why every photo booth booking covers your full event with no 4-hour limit — the thing our customers mention most in their reviews.
We're based in Essex and cover Essex, Kent, East London and Suffolk. Because we're local and run things personally, communication is quick and friendly from your first message right through to the night itself — something customers consistently highlight.
We're fully insured, DBS-checked, and all of our equipment is PAT-tested. Every booth comes with a fully personalised on-screen backdrop, gold barriers, red ropes, a red carpet and a full set of props as standard, set up in around 20 minutes so your day runs smoothly.
Our pricing is simple and based on distance from us — no inflated packages. Customers regularly describe us as excellent value, and we'd rather earn a recommendation than squeeze a booking.

Giving Back
We're proud to support Essex & Herts Air Ambulance — a local charity providing a free, 24/7 life-saving service to people across Essex, Hertfordshire and the surrounding areas. A part of the work we do helps give back to a cause that genuinely matters in our community.
