"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. 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.

Same setup, same crew, same response time across all Placentia ZIPs (92870, 92871). If your venue has a 110V outlet and a 10×10 ft footprint, we're set up.

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.
