Nine years. 5,500+ events. Every booking still attended personally or by an attendant I trained.
I retired from the U.S. Marine Corps after a full career — seven years in aviation logistics, then years as a career recruiter. Along the way I earned three Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medals and a Navy Commendation Medal, all for performance. I started The Photo Booth Guy in 2017 because I couldn't find a photo booth operator in Southern California who treated every event the way I'd want my own wedding handled. So I built one. Every booking is owner-overseen. Every event ships with a uniformed on-site attendant — never a drop-off rental. We're a veteran-owned small business, fully insured, and accepted at every major venue in the Inland Empire.
Nine years in, we've delivered 5,500+ events and earned 600+ five-star reviews on Yelp plus 150+ on Google — and I still personally review every event the morning of. If you have a question before booking, call me directly at (909) 570-1988.

Photo booth rentals in Downey, CA typically run $395–$650 depending on hours, booth type (open-air, mirror, or 360), and add-ons like custom backdrops or guest books. We send a fixed quote up front — no surprise fees, no travel charge inside our standard service area.

Weddings, birthday parties, corporate events, school dances, graduations, holiday parties, fundraisers, and brand activations. We bring the same professional setup to a backyard birthday in Downey as we do to a 500-guest gala — only the package size changes.
Our standard open-air booth needs a 10x10 ft area with access to a single power outlet. The 360 booth needs slightly more — about 12x12 ft. We can work in tighter spaces too; just send us a quick photo of the spot during planning and we'll confirm fit.
Every package includes a professional attendant on-site, unlimited photo sessions, instant prints (or digital sharing depending on package), a curated prop selection, custom photo template with your event branding, and a digital gallery delivered after the event.
