"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. 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 Upland 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 Upland ZIPs (91784, 91786). 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 Photo Booth Guy offers photo booth rental packages in Upland ranging from $425 to $1,050, giving event hosts flexibility depending on the size and scope of their occasion. The lower end of that range is well-suited for smaller, shorter gatherings where you still want a professional photo experience without overextending your budget. Mid-range and higher-tier packages are typically a great fit for weddings, larger corporate events, or celebrations where you want extended rental hours, more robust print options, or additional features. While the specific inclusions for each package tier are best confirmed directly with the team, The Photo Booth Guy is known for being transparent about what each price point covers so there are no surprises on the day of your event.
