Andrew Cruz — Marine Corps Veteran

I started The Photo Booth Guy in 2017 after the Marines. Every event still goes through me personally — the overlay design, the attendant briefing, the venue COI. 5,500+ events later, that hasn't changed. If something goes wrong on your day, my number is on every contract.
