"I had a great experience with PBG from the start. They were one of the easiest vendors I worked with for my wedding. Their clear, constant communication made the entire process so simple, and our photos came out beautifully."
"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. Your proof arrives at least 1 to 2 weeks 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 Laguna Niguel 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 149+ 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.

The Photo Booth Guy offers photo booth rental packages in the Laguna Niguel area ranging from $425 to $1,050, giving clients flexibility depending on the scale and style of their event. The lower end of that range is well-suited for shorter or more straightforward gatherings, while the higher-tier packages are designed for events that call for more coverage, additional features, or premium add-ons. Because the company has not published a rigid tiered menu publicly, the best approach is to call (909) 570-1988 and describe your event — the date, duration, expected guest count, and any special requests. The team can then walk you through exactly what is included at each price point and whether any upgrades make sense for your specific situation. Pricing transparency is important to the company, so you can expect a clear breakdown rather than vague estimates.
The Photo Booth Guy is based in Chino, California, and regularly travels to serve clients throughout Southern California, including Laguna Niguel and the wider Orange County region. Laguna Niguel is well within their service footprint, making it a natural fit for the company. For events outside the immediate area or for destination-style celebrations, it is worth discussing travel logistics directly with the team. Clients planning multi-location events or gatherings in more distant parts of California should call (909) 570-1988 to ask about any applicable travel fees and to confirm availability. The company's broad review base suggests they have handled a wide variety of geographic scenarios, and the team is accustomed to planning the travel and setup coordination that out-of-area events require.
Booking The Photo Booth Guy for an event in Laguna Niguel starts with a simple phone call to (909) 570-1988. The team will ask about your event date, location, estimated guest count, and any specific preferences so they can match you with the right package within the $425 to $1,050 range. For weddings and larger corporate events, booking well in advance is strongly advisable — popular dates in Orange County fill quickly, especially during spring and fall. Securing your date early gives you the best chance of locking in availability and allows time to finalize details like customized print designs or any add-ons you may want. For smaller or more spontaneous gatherings, the team can sometimes accommodate shorter lead times, but reaching out as soon as your date is confirmed is always the smartest move.
