Celebrating Growth, Gratitude, and Our Journey to Arizona’s Top-Rated Photo Booth Experience

Businessman drawing a success plan with steps: idea, planning, strategy, and success.

At Smile AZ Photo Booth, gratitude is at the core of everything we do. Today, we’re honored to share a milestone that still feels surreal — Smile AZ Photo Booth has officially joined Photo Booth Supply Co.’s prestigious Six Figure Club.


This recognition represents far more than revenue. It reflects countless hours, early mornings, late nights, personal sacrifices, and a steadfast commitment to delivering unforgettable experiences for our clients across Arizona.


What Is the Photo Booth Supply Co. Six Figure Club?

The Photo Booth Supply Co. (PBSCO) Six Figure Club is an elite group within the photo booth industry that recognizes owners who have built sustainable, high-performing photo booth businesses generating six figures in annual revenue. Membership isn’t automatic — it’s earned through consistent business growth, operational excellence, customer satisfaction, and the ability to scale with intention.


Being part of this club means going beyond simply owning a photo booth. It means you’ve built real systems, refined your brand, invested in your clients, and created a business that can thrive long-term. To be recognized by PBSCO — a company that sets the industry standard — is an incredible honor we don’t take lightly.


Why Photo Booth Supply Co. Matters to the Industry

For those unfamiliar, Photo Booth Supply Co. is one of the most influential and trusted leaders in the photo booth industry worldwide. PBSCO is known for producing top-tier photo booth hardware, innovative software, and industry-leading education that empowers entrepreneurs to start, scale, and professionalize their businesses.


Beyond equipment, PBSCO has built a powerful ecosystem through education, community, and mentorship. They’ve helped elevate the photo booth industry as a whole, and being recognized by them is both validating and motivating.


A Conversation We’re Truly Humbled By

As part of this milestone, I (Rudy) recently had the honor of being interviewed by PBSCO’s Marketing Manager, Amber Gutilla, for their upcoming podcast. This conversation was reflective, insightful, and inspiring.


We dove deep into the origins of Smile AZ Photo Booth — how this journey started nearly three years ago with a simple vision and a whole lot of determination. We talked candidly about what it’s like balancing a full-time career while building a side business, and the very real sacrifices that came with those early days.


From missed weekends and long nights to reinvesting every dollar back into the business, those sacrifices shaped the foundation of who we are today.


Systems, Process, and Consistent Quality

One of the biggest turning points in our growth was learning that passion alone isn’t enough — systems and processes matter.


During the podcast, we discussed how building repeatable workflows, training standards, and customer-first systems allowed us to consistently deliver a premium experience at every single event. That consistency is what led to trust, referrals, and ultimately, growth.


Because of our clients and our incredible team, we’re proud to say that Smile AZ Photo Booth has earned over 830 five-star Google reviews, making us the top-rated photo booth company in Arizona. Every review represents a moment we were trusted with — and that trust means everything to us.


Looking Ahead With Gratitude and Excitement

We’re incredibly grateful to be featured by Photo Booth Supply Co. and to share our story on their platform. This podcast episode airs next month, and we truly believe it’s one you won’t want to miss — whether you’re an entrepreneur, creative business owner, or someone thinking about starting something of your own.


The future is incredibly bright. As we step into a new year, we’re excited for continued growth, new opportunities, and the chance to serve even more amazing clients across Arizona.

From the bottom of our hearts — thank you to our clients, our partners, our family, and the PBSCO community for believing in us.


Stay tuned, stay inspired, and as always… we’ll see you at the next celebration. ✨

Each spring, the spirit of community, faith, and philanthropy comes together in a truly special way at the Annual Salpointe Lady Lancers Brunch and Blessing . This year, Smile AZ Photo Booth had the incredible honor of being part of this beautiful tradition hosted at the breathtaking Westward Look Wyndham Grand Resort & Spa in Tucson, Arizona. A Meaningful Tradition for Salpointe Catholic High School The Lady Lancers Brunch and Blessing is more than just a gathering — it is a heartfelt celebration supporting the young women of Salpointe Catholic High School. The event brings together families, alumni, faculty, and community supporters to celebrate faith, sisterhood, and the continued growth of the school’s athletic and leadership programs for female students. Events like this are vital to the Tucson community. They help strengthen opportunities for young women to excel not only in athletics, but in academics, leadership, and service. The Brunch and Blessing reflects the values that make Salpointe such a cornerstone institution in Southern Arizona — tradition, excellence, and unity. A Beautiful Day at Westward Look Resort There are few venues in Tucson that capture the magic of the Sonoran Desert quite like Westward Look. Nestled against the Catalina Mountains, the resort offers sweeping panoramic views, stunning desert landscapes, and timeless Southwestern charm. It’s no surprise that Westward Look is a popular choice for weddings, corporate gatherings, galas, and nonprofit events. The views alone are breathtaking, and the elevated yet welcoming atmosphere makes every event feel both grand and intimate. It truly was a beautiful day for a beautiful event. Capturing Memories During Cocktail & Auction Hour Smile AZ Photo Booth had a wonderful time capturing all of the smiles, laughter, and heartfelt moments during the cocktail and auction hour. Guests were dressed elegantly, reconnecting with friends and showing their support — and our photo booth became a natural gathering point for celebration. From mother-daughter portraits to groups of Lady Lancers teammates, every snapshot reflected the joy and pride surrounding this special afternoon. Our Signature Roaming Photo Booth Experience In addition to our classic setup, we also brought out our signature roaming photo booth experience — and it was a hit! Roaming photo booths are quickly becoming one of the most popular event trends in Tucson and beyond. Why? Because they are: Portable and interactive – We bring the booth directly to guests instead of waiting for them to come to us. Perfect for cocktail hours – No lines, no waiting, just spontaneous fun. Effortless and modern – Guests can instantly share their photos via text, email, QR code, or Airdrop. Great for capturing candid moments – Some of the most genuine smiles happen when guests aren’t expecting it! The mobility of a roaming booth allows us to blend seamlessly into the flow of the event, capturing organic, authentic moments — especially during busy auction and social hours. Honored to Serve the Tucson Community It was truly such an honor to be part of this meaningful celebration. As a locally owned and operated Tucson photo booth company, we take great pride in supporting schools, nonprofits, and community organizations throughout Southern Arizona. Events like the Salpointe Lady Lancers Brunch and Blessing remind us why we love what we do. We don’t just provide a service — we help preserve milestones, celebrate achievements, and create keepsakes that families will treasure for years to come. To the entire Salpointe community: thank you for trusting Smile AZ Photo Booth to capture your memories. We are grateful to serve Tucson events at iconic venues like Westward Look Resort and look forward to many more celebrations ahead. If you’re planning a wedding, corporate event, school fundraiser, or nonprofit gala in Tucson, Arizona, and are looking for a professional, modern, and interactive photo booth experience, we would love to celebrate with you.
