Photo Booth Hire at The Biscuit Factory
Photo booth hire at The Biscuit Factory
Photo booth hire at The Biscuit Factory suits a venue that’s all about creativity, and our team has worked at this Newcastle art gallery before. We know the building in the Ouseburn cultural quarter and how its event spaces work, so we can fit in smoothly whether you’re planning a wedding, a celebration or a company event.
Selfie Star is a luxury photo booth company based in Swillington, Leeds, covering the North East as well as Yorkshire. Weddings are our speciality, and we also look after corporate events, Christmas parties and private celebrations. Every staffed booth comes with a friendly attendant and prints every time.
About The Biscuit Factory
The Biscuit Factory stands on Stoddart Street in Newcastle upon Tyne, in the Ouseburn cultural quarter. It’s a Victorian former biscuit factory converted into an independent art gallery, showing and selling contemporary work from hundreds of artists and makers, from paintings and sculpture to prints, pottery and jewellery.
It has three event spaces. The plant-filled Garden Room is the main ceremony space, with a lush, botanical feel. The Biscuit Room is a large contemporary suite with mid-century design touches, and Artisan is a more intimate, atmospheric room. Catering ranges from three-course dining to relaxed buffets and drinks, and couples can also arrange their own catering.
Beyond weddings, The Biscuit Factory hosts conferences, product launches, banqueting evenings and other corporate events, with built-in screens and sound in its spaces.
Newcastle wedding photo booth hire: which booth suits The Biscuit Factory?
An art gallery setting rewards a booth with a strong visual style. Here’s how ours fit in.
The Glam Booth. In a stylish space like The Biscuit Factory, our Glam Booth works brilliantly: studio-style black and white portraits with a polished, editorial feel. This Kardashian-style photo booth suits a gallery crowd, and the results look like something you’d hang on the wall. From £650.
The Vintage Booth. If you’d like warmth and character, our vintage photo booth hire uses a hand-crafted solid oak booth with a choice of backdrops. A botanical backdrop would sit beautifully with the Garden Room. From £625, with a £25 upgrade to the Glam Booth.
The AI Photo Booth. For a creative venue, our AI Photo Booth is a natural fit, turning guests into artistic styles, AI avatars and face swaps, with instant prints. It works especially well at corporate events and launches.
Self-service pods. Our Party Pod and Digital Pod are available at The Biscuit Factory when booked with our DJ.
Corporate events, Christmas parties and celebrations
Our booths aren’t only for weddings. At a product launch, awards evening or Christmas party, a photo booth gets colleagues mixing and gives everyone something to take home. We can create a personalised or branded print design with your logo, event name or campaign artwork, and the online gallery makes it easy to share photos afterwards.
What’s included
- 3 hours of hire as standard, with extra time at £150 per hour
- Unlimited photo capture, with prints every time
- Personalised or branded print design
- A gift box with a full set of prints for the couple at weddings
- An online gallery of every photo
- Our Selfie Star pose guide
- A friendly booth attendant
- Setup and clear away, with our team arriving an hour before the booth opens
For weddings, add Guest Book Management for £39. Our photo booth price guide explains costs.

Our sister company EventsDJ provides wedding and party DJs. Book both together as our Wedding DJ & Photo Booth package and you’ll save money. The Evening DJ package runs for 5 hours, party and Christmas DJ packages start at £450, and you can add cold spark fountains or a sax player.

Planning tips for a photo booth at The Biscuit Factory
- Confirm your room. With three event spaces, check with the events team which room you’re using and where the booth can go.
- Think about the gallery. Your coordinator can advise on positioning the booth away from artwork on display.
- Time it with the evening. Opening the booth after the meal or speeches keeps guests entertained.
- Brand your prints. For corporate events, send us your logo early so we can design your print layout.
- Personalise for weddings. A botanical or artistic print design ties in with the venue.

Absolutely amazing! The best Photo Booth I’ve ever hired and the lady who brought it was such a lovely lady, my daughter even got her up for a selfie on the booth! 10/10 will absolutely book again at any given opportunity.
Booked for our daughters wedding, booking process and communication all excellent Everyone had a great time in the photo booth, good quality pictures
We had a photobooth at our wedding, this went down really well with our Moulin Rouge themed evening reception. I would recommend without any hesitation great company to work with. Thankyou Tony and Stefan
I would like to thank and highly recommend Wayne Baker and Selie Star Events. I got to know Wayne around last Christmas time and remain good friends and business colleagues. I run an entertainment business myself and from time to time we need to depend on other services and djs to help us through busy or sick periods. Wayne has stepped in a many times for us and his work and setup is so professional. Wayne has provided a great service every time we have used him. Our clients have also left some great feedback. Here at MDG Entertainment we thrive on delivering a great product for a great value of money to individual events. It is hard to find in the business people like Wayne who work to our award winning standards. It is a pleasure to be able to use his service and know he will always deliver upon booking him. Many thanks Michael @ MDG Entertainment.
Absolutely amazing DJ and photobooth service for our wedding! Communication beforehand was excellent and they made everything so easy and stress-free from start to finish. They arrived punctually, were incredibly professional, and did everything we asked for with no problem at all. The DJ kept the dancefloor full all night and was also a fantastic MC, helping the whole evening run smoothly and keeping the atmosphere lively and fun. The photobooth was such a hit with all our wedding guests too! We couldn’t have asked for better entertainment for our special day and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or event.
We hired Selfie Star for the evening of our wedding. It was fantastic, all of our guests enjoyed it very much!
We booked Selfie Star Photobooths after seeing the photobooth in action at a wedding fayre. Booking with them was seamless and everything was so easy to access on the portal. On the day, set up was done with no issues whatsoever and our guests were free to enjoy the fun this brought to our evening. All of our guests commented on how fantastic the photobooth was and how well it was operated. It brought so much fun and energy to the evening and was loved by everyone. The photos were absolutely fantastic, we loved going through the prints and the digital copies of the photos! Absolutely incredible, thank you so much we are forever grateful.
We met Wayne & Sally at a wedding fayre. They were both really lovely and approachable, discussing all of their options & packages. Their communication was excellent & their app is easy to use for updates, info on your package and payments. Having used photobooths before, I can say the tech from Selfie Star was the best quality we’ve seen! We had the ICON! Wayne on the night of our wedding was brilliant, super friendly & arrived in plenty of time for the start of the evening celebrations! He had a great attitude with all of our guests, creating a fab atmosphere and we all certainly had fun! We also added late to our booking an audio guestbook, which was no trouble and brilliant to use! Listening back to the messages has been a real highlight. The turnaround on the online photo gallery & audio messages was amazingly quick too, coming back in just a few days after our wedding! Would highly recommend to anyone for any function! Huge thank you! 5*!
Absolutely made our night having the led dance floor at our wedding. Wayne was fantastic, customer service second to none. Arrived on time, no hassle, looked AMAZING!!😍😍 Would highly recommend Selfie Star Events.
We hired the selfie pod and it was great, everyone loved it and had lots of fun taking photos. Booking was easy and it was dropped off without issue. 😀
Amazing evening hosted by Wayne, he was fantastic and the equipment, set up too! He had great choice of music l, kept everyone entertained and the selfie mirror was amazing highly recommend. They are great for any event! Made the night so special 5***** Customer service was amazing really friendly team. Thank you!
Selfie Star were excellent from start to finish - their communication was prompt and clear and set up on the day was extremely smooth and efficient. The Photo Booth itself was an absolute hit and such good fun. Cannot recommend highly enough! Thanks so much for such great service .
We had the most amazing wedding day and being able to capture such fun photos with SelfieStar was amazing. The photo quality was fantastic and the team on the day were so fun and helpful. I’ve been to many other weddings and this is by far the best photo booth I’ve used - so I’m glad it was ours! Would definitely recommend 😄
We booked Selfie Star Photo Booth for our wedding and honestly it was one of the best investments we made. We went for the Kardashian filter to match our monochrome wedding theme and it looked incredible — the photos came out so stylish and elevated. Our guests absolutely loved it and were using it all night. The fact guests could have unlimited prints was amazing, and every print strip was personalised with our Mr & Mrs name and wedding date, with 3 photos on each print which looked so professional. Sally also shared a download link afterwards with all of the images, which was such a lovely touch. One of our favourite parts was coming home with a beautiful gift box containing copies of all the prints for us to add into our guest book and keep forever. Sally was fantastic throughout and everything ran so smoothly. We couldn’t recommend Selfie Star enough!
we loved our photo booth for our wedding last month. Not only did we hire that from Selfie Star, we hired the DJ, venue uplighting and sparkler fountains. Wayne and Sally was very accommodating for our need after we had to change a few things and move our timeline forward which wasn't too much hassel for them. would 100000% recommend to anyone looking for entertainment for their special event. we also want to wish Wayne and Sally all the best in their business . Mr & Mrs Whelan
Could not recommend selfie star enough. Our guests absolutely loved the booth and then a week later we got all the photos which was amazing to see. Thank you for everything
I can't express enough how thrilled we were with Selfie Star's photo booth and DJ services at my niece's wedding. The solid oak photo booth added a touch of tradition and elegance to the event, and it was non-stop fun throughout the evening. Sally and Wayne Baker are an incredible duo, engaging guests from both the USA and the UK, creating an unforgettable party atmosphere. Wayne's music kept the dance floor alive, and the audio guest book was a unique and cherished addition. Everyone at the wedding couldn't stop raving about the quality of the venue and the amazing atmosphere created by Selfie Star. Thank you, Sally and Wayne, for making Charlotte and Matthew's wedding an absolute blast. You truly are stars in your own right, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking to elevate their event experience!
We met Sally and Wayne at a wedding fair and hiring them was the best decision ever ( despite already having a DJ provided within our wedding package at Aldwark Manor) we knew it would be an extra cost but we were willing to do this as we wanted Wayne as our DJ , and he was worth every penny, he made our wedding exactly what we wanted he listened to our preferences and tailored the music to our taste. The guests absolutely loved him. He also helped organise the dance floor which I wanted and provided letters. Sally on the photobooth was equally amazing, guests had such a laugh and kept Sally busy. Definitely a must have at any party. The added bonus of us receiving a copy of every photo taken that night and placed in a box was simply brilliant myself and my husband were able to look through these at our leisure and have a good giggle. So a massive thank you to both Sally & Wayne and if your looking for a top class DJ and photo booth look no further we highly recommend these guys they are the best.
selfie star made our wedding!! run by two of the nicest people we have ever met, Wayne and sal went above and beyond for us to make our special day run as smoothly as possible. They even took all the stress away before hand and communicated with the hotel about arranging the room and making sure everything we had hired from them would fit, they contacted the tribute band we had coming to the wedding and made their set up easier by connect up to selfie stars equipment which made our turn around from the day in to the evening party much quicker! The dancefloor, star light back drop and light up shoots completely transformed our room, it looked amazing!! we also had the dancing with clouds and cold spark fire work for our first dance which was also looked amazing! selfie star also hosted our full day and was our DJ Which I believe made the day run so well. They made us feel very special and organised all the special parts of the day to make sure they went as well as they possibly could and really made the special moments count! THe music was brilliant they played a mixture of songs we asked for and then a mixture of songs from 80s 90s and now which was great the dancefloor was full of people all night! highly recommended this company they are fantastic, we also had the table selfie centerpiece aswell which we and all our guests had lots of fun with and captured loads of memories! Thank you Wayne and sal you were fantastic and we can't wait to have another party with selfie star!!!
What a cracking experience we had at a wedding yesterday with Selfie Star! Overall a friendly, humorous but professional service! He even let me take the horses head to the dance floor, I mean, what more could you want! Would absolutely recommend to a friend. You thoroughly deserve the top marks in this review!
