The Mirror Experience
What Is a Magic Mirror Photo Booth
A magic mirror photo booth is an interactive full-length mirror with a hidden camera and touchscreen that guides guests through photo sessions using animations and voice prompts. Guests touch the mirror to start the experience, watch live animations as they pose, and receive a lab-quality print in under 15 seconds. After the shot, they can add digital signatures, drawings, and emojis directly onto their photo before it prints, making every image uniquely personal.
Unlike a traditional photo booth, which is enclosed and typically fits two to six people, the magic mirror is open-fronted and can capture larger groups in a single shot. The setup is a statement piece in its own right, standing in a premium gold or silver frame that guests notice the moment they walk into the room.

Every Occasion
Magic Mirror Photo Booth Hire for Every Occasion
Wedding Magic Mirror Hire
The magic mirror is a statement piece at any wedding reception. Its gold or silver frame complements formal decor, while the touchscreen and digital signature feature give guests a genuinely unique experience. Many couples use the digital signing feature as an interactive guestbook alternative, asking each group to sign their photo before it prints so the online gallery doubles as a collection of personal messages from everyone at the wedding.
Corporate Events
For galas, award ceremonies, and product launches, the magic mirror strikes exactly the right tone. It is sophisticated, branded, and interactive. The mirror displays your company name and branding on screen, and printed templates are fully customised to your event identity. Customisable print designs and branding options make it ideal for corporate events where businesses want to tailor the photo booth experience to their brand.
Birthday Parties and Celebrations
Magic mirror photo booths are suitable for a variety of events including milestone birthday parties, proms, and anniversary celebrations. The interactive nature of the mirror, including animations, voice prompts, and digital props, makes it appealing to both children and adults, ensuring entertainment for all ages. Even guests who would never approach a traditional enclosed booth tend to be drawn in by the mirror's animated prompts and open-fronted design.
Proms and School Events
The magic mirror is one of the most popular hire photo booths for proms and school leavers events. The open-air setup allows full-length portrait photos so guests can show off their outfits, and the social media sharing feature means photos are being posted before the night is over.
Charity Galas
The magic mirror brings an upscale photo experience that matches the elegant atmosphere of a charity fundraiser while providing memorable keepsakes for donors and supporters. The interactive element and high-quality prints give guests something worth taking home and talking about long after the event.
Why Blue Diamond
Why Choose Blue Diamond Entertainment for Magic Mirror Hire
Professional Equipment
We use DSLR cameras rather than webcams, and professional dye-sublimation printers that produce high-quality, smudge-free prints in under 15 seconds. All our equipment is PAT tested before every event and we carry £5 million public liability insurance, which is a requirement at most venues across Worcestershire and the West Midlands.
Brilliant Service
A professionally dressed attendant runs the mirror throughout the full hire period. They manage the queue, assist guests with the touchscreen and digital signatures, monitor print quality, and handle any technical issues on the spot. We are proud of the brilliant service we provide at every event and the happy customers we leave behind.
Fully Customised for Your Event
Every booking includes a custom print design created specifically for your event. Your names, date, colours, and theme are all incorporated. Corporate clients can include logos and brand colours. You approve the design in advance so there are no surprises on the day.
Fits Smaller Spaces
The magic mirror photo booth fits into smaller spaces compared to traditional inflatable booths, making it ideal for venues with limited room. The footprint is approximately 2.5m x 2.5m, which works comfortably in most Worcestershire and West Midlands wedding venues.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the magic mirror different from a traditional photo booth?
The magic mirror is a full-length floor-standing mirror that is open-fronted rather than enclosed. Guests interact with its touchscreen to take photos, add digital signatures, drawings, and emojis directly onto their image. It offers a more visible and theatrical experience compared to the privacy of an enclosed booth. Unlike traditional photo booths which typically fit two to six people, the magic mirror can capture larger groups in a single shot.
What space does the magic mirror require?
Magic mirror photo booths typically require a space of approximately 2.5m x 2.5m to 3m x 3m to allow for comfortable operation and guest movement. We confirm all space requirements with your venue coordinator in advance of the event.
Can the magic mirror be used outdoors?
The magic mirror requires a covered area with protection from direct sunlight, rain, and extreme temperatures, as well as a level surface and nearby power access. It works well in marquees and covered outdoor spaces but is not suitable for fully open-air use.
How quickly are prints produced?
Photos from the magic mirror are printed instantly using professional dye-sublimation printers, typically in under 15 seconds. Photos can also be shared digitally via SMS, email, or QR code during the event.
Can guests share photos to social media?
Yes. The magic mirror includes social media integration allowing guests to share their photos instantly to multiple platforms during the event.
Can the print design be customised?
Yes. We create a fully custom print design for every booking incorporating your names, date, colours, and theme. Corporate clients can include logos and brand colours. You approve the design before the event date.
How many people fit in a magic mirror photo?
The mirror comfortably captures groups of up to six guests in a single image. Larger groups are also possible given the open-fronted design.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We carry £5 million public liability insurance and all equipment is PAT tested before every event. Many venues require providers to have public liability insurance and PAT tested equipment as a condition of operation. We can provide our certificate directly to your venue coordinator on request.
