  • Desert Luna specializes in photo booth experiences for events that deserve unforgettable moments and elevated vibes. Specializing in:

    • Weddings– From romantic receptions to after-parties, our booths add a modern, stylish touch to your celebration.

    • Brand Activations & Experiential Marketing– Custom-branded overlays, data capture, and social sharing make our booths a perfect fit for PR launches, influencer events, and pop-ups.

    • Corporate Events– From galas and holiday parties to conferences and team-building events, we deliver professional, high-impact experiences.

    • Social Events– Birthdays, baby showers, bachelorettes, anniversaries, and everything in between— if you’re gathering people, we’re bringing the fun.

    If you’re planning an event in Los Angeles or beyond and want a photo experience that stands out, Desert Luna is here to make it happen.

  • Whether it’s an intimate dinner party or a large-scale event with hundreds (or thousands!) of guests, Desert Luna scales to meet your needs.

    For small gatherings, our minimalist digital booths are perfect for creating connection and capturing memories without taking up too much space. We’ll tailor the setup to match your vibe— no crowd required.

    For larger events, brand activations, or festivals, we offer multi-booth setups, high-volume data capture, and dedicated attendants to keep the flow seamless. We’ve handled guest counts in the thousands, so rest assured— we’re built for scale.

    No matter the size, the experience will always feel elevated, effortless, and totally on-brand.

  • We get it — there are cheaper options out there. But Desert Luna isn’t just a photo booth. We’re an experience. A vibe. A team that shows up with intention, innovation, and elevated design.

    Here’s what sets us apart:

    1. Premium Aesthetic – Our booths look like they belong at the Met Gala, not a mall kiosk. Every detail is curated — from our custom-branded screens to our modern, minimalist setups.

    2. 🎯 Flawless Execution – We handle everything from setup to breakdown with precision. No tech hiccups. No stress. Just smooth, seamless fun for you and your guests.

    3. 🎨 Customization That Converts – Whether it’s a wedding or a brand activation, we design every element to match your event’s energy, colors, and goals — down to the overlay, backdrop, and user flow.

    4. 💡 Strategic Brand Thinking – For corporate and experiential clients, we’re more than a vendor — we’re a creative partner. Need data capture? Social reach? On-brand storytelling? We build that into the booth.

    5. 🧠 You’re Not Just a Number – We work closely with you to make sure the experience feels aligned, intentional, and unforgettable. You get top-tier communication, attention to detail, and care at every step.

    Cheaper booths cut corners — we create moments your guests will remember and share. If you’re looking for high impact, elevated style, and true professionalism, you’ve found your match.

    We mean it when we say “showing up as the professionals we are— NOT tipsy!”

  • Sure, you could DIY it — but here’s what you’d be taking on: sourcing and setting up equipment, designing overlays, creating a backdrop, troubleshooting tech issues, managing guest flow, capturing and organizing images, and somehow still trying to enjoy your own event. Sound fun?

    Here’s why clients choose Desert Luna instead:

    1. 🎯 Professional Equipment – Crisp lighting, pro-grade cameras, fast prints, and digital sharing — all seamlessly integrated. No iPads taped to tripods here.

    2. Design-Forward Experience – Our custom overlays, branded micro-sites, and curated backdrops are designed to elevate your entire event, not just blend in.

    3. 🧑‍💼 On-Site Attendants (for in-person booths)– You don’t need to babysit a booth all night. We show up early, handle it all, and let you focus on celebrating.

    4. 💾 Post-Event Image Galleries – Within 72 hours, you’ll get a professionally organized gallery with every image. No digging through blurry phone pics or SD cards.

    5. 💡 Stress-Free Setup– No tangled cords. No last-minute Target runs. Just a high-end, ready-to-go booth experience that works every single time.

    DIY might save a few bucks upfront, but the time, energy, and technical challenges usually end up costing more. We’re here to make sure your photo booth adds to your event— not takes away from it.

    Believe us, we’ve had clients who have gone down * that * road— and they all say, “we wish we would have hired YOU!” so saving you the headache & heartbreak 💔 thank us later!

Payments & Additional Fees

  • To secure your date, we require a non-refundable 50% retainer at the time of booking for any event scheduled more than 30 days out. This locks in your reservation and allows us to begin the planning process.

    If your event is less than 30 days away, full payment is required upfront at the time of booking to confirm your spot on our calendar. This helps us ensure everything is prepped and ready to go with a quick turnaround.

  • Yes — we charge a $100 flat travel fee for events more than 30 miles from Redlands, CA.

    This covers mileage, travel time, and equipment transport. No messy per-mile math. Just a clean, flat rate so we can show up on time and ready to serve the vibes.

  • For events located more than 250 miles round-trip from our home base in Redlands, CA, we charge an Extended Travel & Lodging Fee to cover overnight accommodations and long-distance logistics.

  • If your event is located more than 100 miles one-way from Redlands, CA, we apply a Long-Distance Mileage Fee to account for extended travel time, fuel, and vehicle wear.

    Photo Booth Access, Space and Power. The Client(s) shall arrange for an appropriate space for the Photo Booth at the Client's Venue Location. The location must adhere to the following:

    You are responsible for providing Desert Luna with the Venue's WiFi information. Please inform your event coordinator of this requirement. 

  • For the highest quality of images, we highly recommend placing your photo booth indoors.

    If placed outdoors, the Photo Booth should be placed under a covering of some sort or in a shaded area, (to avoid any discoloring, over-heating, or bad lighting/photo captures).

    The photo booth should be placed out of any direct sunlight or inclement weather.

    • The photo booth may not be placed against a window during daylight hours to prevent light coming through the backdrop interfering with the quality of your images. 

  • Yes! We will experience delayed times and technical difficulties if the temperature is below 55 degrees and above 85 degrees.

    For the best possible experience, we highly recommend an indoor setup and temperatures between 55 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure proper photo booth operation for you and your guests.

  • ✿ Yes! Our printer booth setup includes a friendly photo booth attendant as part of the experience to ensure guests are having fun and striking a pose.

    ✿ Our digital booth includes an attendant for setup & breakdown. This is a drop off experience, so you can have all the fun with a user friendly experience with emoji prompts helping you strike a pose. Our attendant will arrive to setup the digital booth and be on standby for the duration of your photo booth run time. Returning to breakdown the photo booth at your scheduled end time.

  • For the safety of your guests, our team, and our equipment, we do not set up outdoors in wind conditions exceeding 20 mph.

    Gusts over this limit can cause backdrops and hardware to become unstable, creating a safety hazard. If wind conditions exceed this threshold on the day of your event, we’ll kindly request an indoor or sheltered alternative.

  • For the safety of our team, guests, and equipment, we cannot operate outdoors in conditions with wind gusts or sandstorms exceeding 20 mph. These conditions pose a serious risk of damage to our equipment and injury to guests.

    If an event proceeds in unsafe weather conditions without proper shelter or relocation provided, a $500 equipment hazard fee will be added to the final invoice to cover cleaning, repair, or early teardown due to wind-related damage or safety concerns.

    To avoid this, we strongly recommend having an indoor or properly sheltered backup plan if your event is in an open-air or desert location.
