Photo booth rental at The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa.

The Mission Inn's Spanish Mission architecture demands a low-key booth that doesn't compete with century-old hand-painted tiles. We run our Classic open-air rig with a custom backdrop tuned to the Inn's ochre-and-terracotta palette.

The Photo Booth Guy at The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa

A booth that respects 130 years of Mission architecture.

The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa at 3649 Mission Inn Avenue in Riverside is one of California's most historically significant event venues — National Historic Landmark status, Spanish Mission architecture dating to 1876, and the Music Room and Saint Francis Atrio both anchored by century-old hand-painted tiles that no vendor wants to be responsible for damaging. The Photo Booth Guy works the Mission Inn on the protocol every historic property demands: no adhesives, no anchoring, freestanding ballast bases on every backdrop stand, and pad-wrapped gear bags routed through the 7th Street service entrance.

The Classic open-air booth with our sepia/vintage print profile is the canonical Mission Inn pick. The Spanish Mission architecture, the ochre-and-terracotta palette, and the period-correct chandeliers all pair beautifully with prints that look like they came out of the era the Inn was built. For Atrio Wedding Garden ceremonies we shift to the 360 video booth — the open-air footprint and the historic backdrop combine into a content-first capture.

Founder Andrew Cruz, a USMC veteran, built The Photo Booth Guy on the principle that every booking is owner-overseen. Mission Inn events specifically get this because the historic-property nuances — the COI naming the Riverside Historic Trust, the no-anchoring rule, the limited freight access — aren't something a drop-off vendor can handle without burning a couple. 5,500+ events delivered. 4.9 stars across 750+ Yelp and Google reviews. 1 in 6 of our clients book us a second time.

Hosting a wedding, quinceañera, anniversary, or corporate retreat at The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa? Riverside photo booth rental sits inside our standard service area — your fixed quote includes the Riverside Historic Trust COI, the load-in coordination, and a uniformed attendant on-site for the full event window. Classic Booth remains our Mission Inn default for the historic-architecture aesthetic.

From the founder

Why I started The Photo Booth Guy

Nine years. 5,500+ events. Every booking still attended personally or by an attendant I trained.

Andrew Cruz, founder of The Photo Booth Guy — USMC veteran
🎖 Veteran-owned · USMC Ret. Andrew Cruz · Founder & lead operator since 2017

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 600+ five-star reviews on Yelp plus 150+ 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.
