Afterlight premium open-air photo booth setup

Afterlight Booth Co. is a premier modern photo booth rental serving Orange County, and Laguna Beach is one of our nearest OC markets. We work with luxury oceanfront weddings at resorts like Montage Laguna Beach, Surf & Sand Resort, and The Ranch at Laguna Beach, arts-district galas and brand activations at venues like Seven Degrees, and intimate cove and boutique-hotel celebrations along the coast. Laguna is design-forward and high-end, so the booth is built to match: a clean, modern open-air setup, custom-designed prints, attended service, and a look that holds its own at a five-diamond resort. For the upscale weddings and galas that define this city, the Reserve package adds custom backdrops, GIF and video modes, an event highlight reel, and optional data capture for brand events. The bluff-top and oceanfront settings here are dramatic, and the booth keeps the focus on your guests and the view, not on a bulky kiosk. We quote same-day, lock in your date in under an hour, and arrive ready to give your guests photos worth keeping.

Why Laguna Beach wedding and event planners choose Afterlight

Afterlight is built around the details that make an event memorable, not just the booth itself. Every package includes studio-quality photos from a professional DSLR camera and lighting setup, custom-designed photo templates tailored to your event, premium backdrops, and a curated prop selection that fits the tone of the day. Setup and teardown are always handled by our team and always included in the price. You won't get a surprise travel fee, a surprise overtime charge, or a stack of add-ons at checkout. Laguna Beach is one of the top luxury wedding markets in Orange County, so most of what we set up here is on the higher end, and the Reserve package is the natural fit: attended service, custom print design, GIF and video modes, a highlight reel, and a modern booth that looks right at home at Montage Laguna Beach or Surf & Sand Resort. Laguna's arts identity matters too. Galas, benefit events, and brand activations at spaces like Seven Degrees are a great fit for the booth, and the Reserve package can add branded overlays and optional guest data capture for marketing teams. The aesthetic here is dramatic coastline and golden-hour light, and a clean open-air setup keeps the attention on the setting instead of competing with it. Across every package the goal is the same: a booth experience that matches the design and feel of a Laguna event, and photos your guests will share and remember long after the night ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a photo booth rental cost in Laguna Beach?

Our Laguna Beach photo booth packages start at $699 for our Social tier (self-serve open-air booth) and go up to $1,799 for our Reserve tier (premium attended setup with custom branding). The Classic package at $1,099 is our most-booked option, though Laguna weddings and galas often lean toward the Reserve tier. All packages include custom-designed photo templates, instant digital sharing, and setup and teardown handled by our team.

Do you charge a travel fee for events in Laguna Beach?

No. Our local office is in Laguna Beach, so there are no travel fees for events in the city. That includes Montage Laguna Beach, Surf & Sand Resort, The Ranch at Laguna Beach, and Seven Degrees.

How far in advance should I book a photo booth for a Laguna Beach event?

For Saturday weddings at venues like Montage and Surf & Sand, we recommend booking 4-6 months in advance, and peak-season oceanfront dates go fastest. Arts galas, corporate events, and brand activations are usually flexible up to 2-4 weeks out, and smaller events can often be booked within 7-14 days.

Do you work with Laguna Beach luxury venue planners?

Yes. We coordinate directly with planners at venues like Montage Laguna Beach, Surf & Sand Resort, and The Ranch at Laguna Beach on load-in, timing, and setup, and we tailor the booth design to match a five-diamond level event.

Do you do arts-district galas and brand activations?

Yes. Laguna's arts scene, from the Festival of Arts to event spaces like Seven Degrees, is a natural fit for the booth. Our Reserve package adds branded overlays, custom backdrops, GIF and video modes, and optional data capture for galas, benefit events, and brand activations.

Do you provide digital downloads, prints, or both?

Instant digital sharing is included in every package, so guests can text or email themselves their photo immediately. Physical prints are included in our Classic ($1,099) and Reserve ($1,799) packages. Our Social tier ($699) is digital-only, which is often the right fit for casual events or activations where prints aren't necessary.

What's the difference between an open-air photo booth and a traditional booth?

Open-air booths use a backdrop and a professional camera setup rather than an enclosed kiosk, which gives you flexibility on group size (we can fit 8 or more people in a single shot), better photo quality, and a setup that fits the luxury, design-forward feel of Laguna Beach events. Traditional enclosed booths are smaller, lower-resolution, and feel out of place at high-end oceanfront venues.

We serve Laguna Beach and the surrounding south Orange County area, including Laguna Niguel, Dana Point, Newport Beach, and Aliso Viejo, with no travel fees within OC.
