"We are so grateful to [The Photo Booth Guy]! They generously provided a classic photo booth for our nonprofit's annual fundraiser, and they were fantastic to work with. The customer service was excellent."
"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."

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 Hemet 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.

Saturdays in Hemet 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.

The Photo Booth Guy offers photo booth rental packages ranging from $425 to $1,050, giving Hemet clients flexibility depending on the scale and style of their event. The lower end of that range typically covers a solid base experience suited for smaller or shorter gatherings, while packages moving toward the $1,050 mark are designed for larger events that call for more hours, additional features, or premium add-ons. Because the company does not publicly list a rigid tier-by-tier breakdown, the best approach for Hemet residents is to call (909) 570-1988 directly and describe your event type, guest count, and duration. The team can then walk you through what each price point includes and help you identify which configuration delivers the most value for your specific occasion. Given the 4.9-star reputation across 750-plus reviews, clients consistently report feeling the pricing reflects a quality experience rather than a budget compromise.
The Photo Booth Guy is headquartered in Chino, California, and regularly travels to serve clients throughout Riverside County, including Hemet. The distance from Chino to Hemet is well within the company's normal service footprint, making it a practical and accessible choice for local event planners. For clients organizing events in multiple locations or considering a destination-style celebration beyond the immediate Inland Empire and Riverside County region, it is worth contacting the team directly at (909) 570-1988 to discuss travel logistics and any applicable fees. The company's strong review record across a broad geographic area suggests they are experienced at handling events that require traveling beyond their home base. Whether your Hemet event is a single afternoon affair or part of a larger multi-location celebration, The Photo Booth Guy can outline exactly what travel coverage looks like for your specific situation.
Booking The Photo Booth Guy for a Hemet event starts with a phone call to (909) 570-1988, where the team gathers details about your event date, venue, expected guest count, and the type of experience you have in mind. From there they can recommend the right package within the $425 to $1,050 range and walk you through next steps to secure your date. For weddings and larger corporate events in Hemet, booking as early as possible is strongly advisable. Popular weekend dates in Riverside County tend to fill up months in advance, and waiting too long risks losing your preferred date to another client. A general rule of thumb is to start the conversation at least three to six months ahead for weddings and two to four months out for corporate or milestone events. Smaller or more flexible gatherings may have more availability on shorter notice, but reaching out early always gives you more options and peace of mind.
Weekend dates fill fast — get your proposal in seconds.
