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 Apple Valley 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 Apple Valley ZIPs (92307, 92308). If your venue has a 110V outlet within 50 ft and 8×8 ft of floor space (10×10 ft for the 360), 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 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 lower end of that range typically covers a solid foundation of services for a standard event, while packages toward the higher end include additional hours, premium features, or enhanced customization options. Because the company serves a variety of event types and sizes throughout San Bernardino County, pricing can shift depending on the specifics of your event, including duration, day of the week, and any special requests. Clients are encouraged to call (909) 570-1988 to walk through exactly what each tier includes and to find out which package makes the most sense for their particular occasion in Apple Valley.

Getting a custom quote is quick and usually only takes a brief conversation about your event details.
The Photo Booth Guy is headquartered in Chino, California, and regularly travels throughout San Bernardino County to serve clients in Apple Valley and surrounding communities. Covering this region means the team is accustomed to the drive times and routing involved in reaching High Desert locations like Apple Valley, and they plan logistics accordingly to ensure on-time setup. For events outside the standard service radius or for destination-style gatherings that involve more significant travel, a travel fee may apply depending on the distance involved. The best way to confirm whether your Apple Valley event location falls within the standard coverage area or requires an additional fee is to contact the team directly at (909) 570-1988. The Photo Booth Guy is transparent about any travel-related costs upfront so clients can plan their full event budget accurately. Multi-location or multi-day events can also be discussed during the initial call to make sure the logistics work for everyone involved.
Booking The Photo Booth Guy for an Apple Valley event is a straightforward process that starts with a phone call to (909) 570-1988. During that conversation, you will share the basics of your event, including the date, location, expected guest count, and any specific features you have in mind, and the team will walk you through available packages within the $425 to $1,050 range. Because San Bernardino County is an active market for events of all kinds, popular dates on weekends and around major holidays tend to fill up several months in advance. For weddings and large corporate events in Apple Valley, booking three to six months ahead is a reasonable target to ensure your preferred date is available. Smaller gatherings may have more flexibility, but earlier is always better to avoid disappointment. Once details are confirmed and a deposit is placed, The Photo Booth Guy will coordinate directly with you on setup timing, venue logistics, and any final customization choices so that everything is in place well before your guests arrive.
