Three reasons your event runs without a hitch — every time.
SetupOur setup crew arrives 90 minutes before guests do. Every booth is calibrated, tested, and styled to the venue before the first guest walks in — so when the party starts, the booth doesn’t need a second of your attention.
TemplatesOur in-house designer builds your template from scratch using your colors, your monogram, and your event date. Every template ships at proof stage 5 days before the event so you have time to refine. Zero stock layouts, zero compromise — every single strip carries your name.
ReliabilityCameras, printers, lighting, and laptops get a full diagnostic and tune-up every single week — not just the morning of your event. That’s how we’ve delivered 5,500+ events without a no-show. Reliability isn’t luck. It’s a schedule.
From hotel ballrooms to country club terraces to private estates — we've set up at every kind of Rancho Palos Verdes room. We arrive knowing where the outlets are, which freight elevator to use, and how to load in without breaking step.

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 619+ five-star reviews on Yelp plus 144+ 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 rental from The Photo Booth Guy is priced between $425 and $1,050, giving clients in Rancho Palos Verdes and surrounding Los Angeles County communities a range of options depending on the scope of their event. The lower end of that range typically covers a foundational package suited for smaller gatherings or shorter rental windows, while packages approaching the higher end generally include extended rental hours, additional features, and premium service elements. Because the company does not publish a rigid itemized menu, the best way to understand exactly what each price point covers — including any add-ons or upgrades available for your specific date and event type — is to call The Photo Booth Guy directly at (909) 570-1988. A team member can walk you through current package structures, explain what is included at each tier, and help you find an option that fits both your vision and your budget. Pricing can also vary based on travel distance, event duration, and any customization requests.
The Photo Booth Guy is headquartered in Chino, California, and regularly travels throughout Los Angeles County to serve clients in cities like Rancho Palos Verdes. The Peninsula's location in the South Bay area of Los Angeles is well within the company's service footprint, and the team is accustomed to making the drive to reach coastal and hillside communities throughout the county. Travel fees, if applicable, are typically based on distance from the home base in Chino, and the team can clarify any associated costs when you contact them directly at (909) 570-1988. For clients planning larger productions — such as multi-venue corporate events or destination celebrations that span different cities — The Photo Booth Guy is equipped to discuss logistics and coordinate accordingly. The best approach is to provide your event address early in the conversation so the team can confirm availability, outline any travel-related pricing, and ensure no surprises arise on the day of your event.
Booking The Photo Booth Guy for a Rancho Palos Verdes event starts with a direct conversation — calling (909) 570-1988 is the most straightforward way to check date availability, discuss your event details, and get a clear picture of which package fits your needs. Given the company's 4.9-star reputation and 750-plus reviews, their calendar tends to fill up, particularly during peak wedding and holiday seasons. For weddings, corporate galas, and other large-scale events in the Los Angeles County area, booking three to six months in advance is a reasonable target, though reaching out earlier never hurts. Smaller or weekday events may have more flexibility. Once you and the team agree on a package and date, a deposit is typically required to secure your spot on the calendar. From there, The Photo Booth Guy handles the planning details on their end so that by the time your event arrives in Rancho Palos Verdes, everything is organized, the equipment is ready, and your guests can start enjoying the booth from the moment it opens.
