Booth By Bryant

What Booth By Bryant does

Booth By Bryant is a privately held experiential retail operator of physical photobooths, founded in Southern California. The company operates two locations: a flagship inside the Camp Out retail venue in Costa Mesa, California (19 photobooths at 2944 Randolph Avenue) and a secondary location inside Day to Day Collective in San Diego, California (3 photobooths at 2310 Kettner Boulevard). Both venues are all-ages, pet-friendly, and operate on a walk-in basis with no reservation required, accepting card and tap-to-pay payments.

The product portfolio consists of two photobooth categories: vintage analog photobooths that produce physical photostrips at $5 per session, and digital photobooths that produce a physical photostrip plus a digital copy at $4 per session. The technology is a mix of vintage mechanical analog systems and modern digital image-capture systems. The fleet at Costa Mesa is differentiated by a curated aesthetic, with 19 distinctively designed booths offering visual variety. The company relies primarily on Instagram (@boothbybryant) for organic marketing and on host venue foot traffic for distribution. A referral partnership with photoillusion.com redirects inquiries from Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Houston, Texas markets to a partner provider.

The business model is a simple transactional unit-economics structure: revenue per session is $4-5, with costs including venue share, photobooth maintenance, supplies/print media, and payment processing. There is no subscription, membership, or reservation system. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding, no parent company, no headcount disclosure, and no published financial information. It operates as a small, locally-owned experiential retail business with a clearly defined physical niche rather than a scalable technology platform.
