What is a caricature booth?
A caricature booth is a big screen that draws your guests. At Pic Booth it runs on the Modern Magic Mirror, the black mirror with the glowing LED edge. Each guest scans a code, takes a selfie on their own phone and sends it. A caricature of them, features played up for laughs, is drawn live on the mirror, so the people around them see it happen. Guests keep the drawing on their phone, and we print it so they can hold it, too. You may also see it called an AI caricature booth, a digital caricature booth or a live caricature wall. Same idea: no easel, no line behind one artist, just a selfie in and a caricature out.
How the Caricature Booth works
Scan the code
Point a phone camera at the sign beside the mirror to get started.
Send a selfie
Smile, snap, send. Solo, with a date, or with the face you have been making in every photo all night.
Watch it get drawn
The caricature appears on the mirror, live. Then it lands on your phone, and we print it for you to keep.
On your phone and in your hand
A drawing on a screen is fun for a minute. A print lasts longer.
On your phone
Every caricature comes back to the phone that sent the selfie, ready to post, send to the group chat or set as somebody’s contact photo.
The print
We print the caricature on the spot, so guests walk away holding it. It ends up on a fridge or tucked in a frame instead of lost in a camera roll.

Caricature Booth, caricature artist or Draw Bots?
Three ways to get your guests drawn. Here is how they differ.
Caricature Booth
Guests send a selfie from wherever they are standing. Every drawing appears on the mirror, so the room watches together, and every guest gets a print.
A caricature artist
One artist, one easel, one guest at a time. Lovely to watch up close, but everyone else waits in line beside them.
Draw Bots
Robot arms draw each guest with a real pen on a card, right in front of them. More hands-on, and the card is the souvenir.
Where a caricature booth earns its spot
Weddings
Grandparents, the bridal party and the cousins who never make it into the photo booth all end up on the same mirror, one caricature after another.
Corporate and holiday parties
Nobody has to leave the table to take part. Scan, send, and the whole team watches the department show up on screen one face at a time.
Trade shows and launches
A glowing mirror drawing people live is easy to spot from across a show floor. Visitors stop to watch, then pull out their phones to get drawn themselves.
Birthdays and milestones
Thirtieth, fiftieth, retirement, graduation. Put the guest of honour on the mirror first, then let everyone else follow.
Add a caricature to the booth you already want
Classic Magic Mirror
The Caricature Booth takes over the Modern Mirror for the night. Want photos, too? Add the Classic Magic Mirror in its gold or silver frame, and guests leave with a photo and a caricature.
AI photo booth
AI mode restyles the photo taken in the booth. The Caricature Booth draws guests from their own selfie. Run both and guests get two very different versions of themselves.
Scribble Booth
On the Caricature Booth, the screen does the drawing. On the Scribble Booth, guests draw on the glass themselves, then pose with their doodles.
Caricature booth rental, answered plainly
What is a caricature booth?
A big screen that draws your guests. Guests scan a code at the event, send a selfie from their phone, and a caricature of them is drawn live on the Modern Magic Mirror for the whole room to watch. Every guest gets the drawing on their phone, and we print it for them to take home. You may also see it called an AI caricature booth, a digital caricature booth or a live caricature wall.
Do guests get to keep their caricature?
Yes, twice. The drawing lands on their phone, ready to share, and we print it so they have one to take home.
What does the Caricature Booth run on?
The Modern Magic Mirror, the black mirror with the glowing LED edge. It runs the Caricature Booth for the whole booking, so it is not a photo booth that night. If you want photos too, add the Classic Magic Mirror or any other Pic Booth booth.
How is it different from hiring a caricature artist?
An artist draws one guest at a time at an easel, and everyone else waits beside them. With the Caricature Booth, guests send their selfie from wherever they are standing, every drawing appears on a screen the whole room can see, and every guest leaves with a print.
How is it different from Draw Bots?
Draw Bots are robot arms that draw each guest with a real pen on a card, right in front of them. The Caricature Booth draws guests on the Modern Magic Mirror as a caricature, with the features played up for laughs, and the whole room watches. Both send guests home with something on paper.
How is it different from the AI photo booth?
AI mode restyles the photo taken in the Magic Mirror or the DSLR booth. The Caricature Booth starts from the guest’s own selfie and draws them live on the big screen, so nobody has to step into a booth at all.
Does the Caricature Booth need wifi?
Yes. The drawing happens online, so the mirror needs an internet connection at the venue, and guests need signal or wifi on their phones. Tell us your venue and we will check before your date.
How much does a caricature booth rental cost?
Weddings and parties: $1,200 for 3 hours, $1,300 for 4 and $1,400 for 5, with prints included at every length and extra hours at $100. Corporate events: $1,950 for 3 hours, $2,450 for 4 and $2,950 for a full day. Prices are in CAD plus HST. The full breakdown is in the pricing section above.
