About Custom Made Photo Booth
San Diego's Premium Photo Booth Experience Since 2011
Hi! I'm the founder of Custom Made Photo Booth, which began back in 2011 as a fun addition to my kids' birthday party. What started as a simple way to create lasting memories at a family celebration quickly evolved into something more significant—guests loved our photo booth experience and began requesting it for their own events. That initial spark of interest grew into a full-time passion, and soon I was providing premium photo booth services across San Diego and Southern California—from downtown San Diego to Los Angeles.
By profession, I'm a nurse, which means I bring exceptional attention to detail, organization, and care to every event we service—qualities that have become hallmarks of the Custom Made Photo Booth experience. Quality and professionalism are incredibly important to me, and I'm proud that these values are reflected in every photo booth rental we provide across San Diego County.
I also have two amazing teenagers, Kaycee and Jacob, who assist with our photo booth operations when needed. Together with my trusted and knowledgeable team, we're committed to delivering a fun, seamless, and memorable experience at every event. We constantly stay updated with the latest trends in the photo booth industry to ensure we're offering San Diego's best photo booth rental service. Whether it's a wedding in La Jolla, a corporate event in downtown San Diego, a birthday in Carlsbad, or any special occasion in Southern California, we're here to help you capture the fun—one photo at a time.
