Smash Booth is independently owned and the brainchild of Jason Whaley. Headquartered in Las Vegas and thriving through the city’s one-of-a-kind event industry, Smash Booth serves events across the country with a focus on the locations listed here on the site. Every activation is custom and handled in-house or through trusted partners.

We’ve got decades of combined experience across events, production, marketing, and logistics. Some of us have worked Super Bowls and celebrity weddings. Others have built booths from scratch. Our team has marketing degrees, graphic design degrees, and arguably more awards than any other photo booth company. Together, we bring both polish and grit.

That depends on your event, but typically you’ll have a full team dedicated to making sure everything goes off without a hitch.

Behind the scenes, our admin team each has their own focus—design, logistics, communication—but we work as one unit. We regularly jump in to help with each other’s emails, calls, and curveballs to keep every event running smooth and on schedule.

On-site, you’ll be paired with one of our award-winning, high-energy event hosts. And behind every great host? A full support crew making sure nothing skips a beat.

Yes, and they’re the brains behind everything from branded wraps to interactive installations. Whether it’s turning a client’s idea into reality or inventing something totally new, they thrive on “how do we pull this off?” moments.

We look for personality first. People who are engaging, reliable, and not afraid to take initiative. Once hired, they go through in-depth training to make sure they’re not just tech-savvy, but genuinely excellent with people.

I’m so glad you asked.

Do you think you have the #smashfactor?

We’re always interested in meeting great people. If you’re friendly, reliable, and love making events unforgettable, we’d love to hear from you. Most of our roles are very part-time and event-based, but we’re big on training and growing from within.

Smash Booth has been creating interactive photo experiences and capturing guest’s special moments since 2013. We’ve grown a lot since those early days, but our core values haven’t changed: create standout experiences, treat people well, and always deliver more than expected.

Our famous red bowler has officially retired.

What started as a quirky signature prop quickly became a recognized symbol of style, quality, and innovation in the Las Vegas event scene. As Smash Booth grew into a national brand, the bowler became harder to keep consistent, and truthfully, many elevated events already leaned toward a more timeless, polished look.

Today, Smash Booth continues to push boundaries, deliver unforgettable experiences, and leave lasting impressions. Only now, it’s the rest of the team’s time to shine.

We love a reason to dust them off though, if you would like us to don the bowler, just ask!

At the risk of sounding corny and cliche, passion and love for the industry is what helps us to thrive. 

After more than a decade in the industry, our founder is more involved than ever, serving on industry boards, hosting a podcast to help other photo booth companies level up, and speaking at international conferences to advocate for our industry. This isn’t just business, it’s a craft, a community, and a calling.
