"Overall they did a great job. The white booth with props came out perfectly. It had that added vibe to the party. They were easy to talk to and followed instructions well."
"PBG came to my 30th birthday party and did a fantastic job. From requesting a quote to processing all the logistics to designing my template and finally the day of the event, everything went smoothly."

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 Ladera Ranch room. We arrive knowing where the outlets are, which freight elevator to use, and how to load in without breaking step.
Same setup, same crew, same response time across all Ladera Ranch ZIPs (92694). If your venue has a 110V outlet and a 10×10 ft footprint, we're set up.
Covenant Hills is Ladera Ranch's gated hilltop community with stunning views and larger estate homes.

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 rentals in Ladera Ranch, CA typically run $425–$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.
Saturdays in Ladera Ranch fill up 4–8 weeks out and peak wedding season (April–October) often books 3–6 months in advance. If you have a specific date in mind, lock it in as early as possible. We can sometimes accommodate last-minute requests with 1–2 weeks notice.
Yes — we cover every neighborhood and venue in Ladera Ranch, from private residences to hotels, banquet halls, country clubs, and outdoor venues. We cover all of Orange County with no extra travel fees inside our standard service radius.
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 Ladera Ranch 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.
The Photo Booth Guy offers photo booth rental packages ranging from $425 to $1,050, giving clients in Ladera Ranch flexibility depending on the size and scope of their event. The lower end of that range typically covers a solid foundational experience, while higher-tier packages reflect added hours, premium features, or enhanced customization options. Because specific package tiers and add-on details are best confirmed directly with the team, prospective clients are encouraged to call (909) 570-1988 to walk through exactly what each price point includes and what upgrades may be available. Pricing across Orange County can vary based on event duration, travel distance, and any special requests, so getting a custom quote ensures you understand what fits your budget before committing. With a 4.9-star reputation built on over 750 reviews, The Photo Booth Guy has demonstrated that their pricing reflects genuine value rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Reaching out early also gives you the chance to ask about any seasonal availability or package promotions that might apply to your Ladera Ranch event date.
The Photo Booth Guy is headquartered in Chino, California, and regularly travels to serve clients across Orange County, including Ladera Ranch. The team is accustomed to making the drive into the area and has worked events throughout this region with consistency. For clients planning events outside the immediate service area or considering destination-style events, it is worth having a direct conversation about logistics and whether any travel fees apply to your specific location. The best way to get accurate information about travel coverage and any associated costs is to contact The Photo Booth Guy at (909) 570-1988, where the team can confirm availability for your date and location. Because Ladera Ranch falls within Orange County, most bookings in this area are straightforward to accommodate. If you are coordinating a multi-location event or a celebration that spans more than one venue or city, sharing those details early in the booking process helps the team plan accordingly and give you an honest picture of what the full scope of service will look like.
Booking a photo booth with The Photo Booth Guy starts with a simple phone call to (909) 570-1988, where you can discuss your event date, location in Ladera Ranch or the broader Orange County area, and the type of experience you have in mind. Given that The Photo Booth Guy carries a 4.9-star rating from more than 750 reviews, their calendar tends to stay active, which makes reaching out sooner rather than later a smart move. For weddings and larger corporate events, booking several months in advance is advisable to secure your preferred date, especially during peak seasons like spring and fall when Orange County event calendars fill quickly. For smaller or more flexible gatherings, there may be more availability on shorter notice, but confirming early always reduces stress. During the booking conversation, the team will walk you through the available package options within the $425 to $1,050 price range, help you identify what fits your event, and outline the steps to finalize the reservation. The Photo Booth Guy keeps the process straightforward so you can focus on the rest of your planning.
