"We are so grateful to PBG Entertainment! 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. 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 Indio 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 Indio ZIPs (92201, 92202, 92203). If your venue has a 110V outlet and a 10×10 ft footprint, we're set up.
Shadow Hills Golf Club sits on the north side of Indio with 36 holes laid out below the Indio Hills, and the clubhouse handles member weddings, charity tournaments, holiday parties, and milestone birthdays for the surrounding upscale community. The patio off the 18th green and the indoor ballroom flip quickly between ceremony and reception.
Terra Lago wraps an 18-hole Hale Irwin course around a 22-acre lake on the north side of Indio, with a clubhouse that hosts member weddings, family reunions, golf tournament receptions, and milestone parties. The lakeside lawn and the clubhouse veranda each support ceremony-and-reception flips, and the lake itself becomes the backdrop for evening photo sessions after the wind drops.
Plantation sits in the historic agricultural belt of Indio, surrounded by the date gardens that gave the city its International Festival of Dates roots, with Shields Date Garden and Oasis Date Gardens still operating nearby. Family reunions, milestone birthdays, harvest-themed weddings, and Date Festival watch parties in February fill the local calendar.
Central Indio runs from the Indio Performing Arts Center down through the Old Town Indio district along Miles Avenue, with the Riverside County Fairgrounds and the Coachella Valley History Museum nearby. Quinceañeras, wedding receptions, school events tied to the fairgrounds, and arts fundraisers at the Performing Arts Center anchor the calendar.
North Indio covers the newer master-planned neighborhoods above Interstate 10, with Heritage Park, the Indio Teen Center, and a mix of family-oriented developments built in the last two decades. Birthday parties, quinceañeras, baby showers, and graduation parties from Shadow Hills High dominate the calendar, with backyard setups making up most of the bookings.
South Indio holds the Empire Polo Club grounds where Coachella runs two weekends in April followed by Stagecoach the next weekend, drawing roughly 750,000 attendees across three weekends. Sponsor activations, artist hospitality dinners, brand house parties at rented estates, and pre-festival corporate retreats fill the surrounding calendar from January through May.
Sun City Shadow Hills is a 55-and-better Del Webb community on the north side of Indio with 3,400 homes, two clubhouses, two championship courses, and a calendar of resident social events that runs year-round. Anniversary parties, milestone birthdays, club holiday galas, and grandkid graduation parties make up most of the bookings.
Heritage Palms is a guard-gated 55-and-better community off Fred Waring Drive with an Arthur Hills championship course, a 28,000 square foot clubhouse, and a tightly knit social calendar built around the resident lifestyle. Anniversary parties, milestone birthdays, holiday club events, and small wedding receptions for member family run through the main ballroom and the patio off the pro shop.

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.
