Rendezvooth Designs is a photography company always ready to capture priceless moments.

The company started in 2012 and offer photo booths in Guam for their customers. With the island’s hospitable culture, Rendezvooth provides an opportunity to cherish those memories with ready print photos. Photo booths are manned by the staff of the company instead of being operated by coins.

Owner, Rafael DeAusen was not always a photographer. He started out as a freelance writer for a publication. He then noticed his coworker was enthusiastic about photography and that interested him.

It came to his attention that he was only receiving 15 cents a word for his publications while his coworker who was in charge of taking photos, was receiving $25 for every picture that made it on the newspaper.

This opened DeAusen’s eyes and he made the decision to learn more about photography.

Once DeAusen bought his first camera in 2007, this was the start of his career in photography.

Shortly after he purchased his camera, it was stolen but he did not allow that to phase him.

“I just kept writing and saving money and got a new set of equipment,” DeAusen said.

He shot photos for the University of Guam’s nursing school’s pinning ceremony— his first photo-shooting event.

From there, he obtained a business license, which allowed him to make money as a photographer.

In 2012, he won tickets to fly to Sydney. There, he visited a venue that had a vintage photo booth, which was powered by coins. He already had the idea of starting up a photobooth in Guam but he was unsure. He explained that once his vintage photo developed, that was when he made the final decision to start his own photo booth company.

Along with photo booths, the company is contracted with Pacific Island Club’s Dinner Show to take pictures of the dancers and the tourists.

Andrew Carlos, an employee at Rendezvous Designs described what it is like to work for the company.

“When I first started at RendezVooth, it was like I was welcomed in with open arms,” Carlos said. “They treat you with care and show the respect they give their customers.”

Carlos began working with the company in 2013, and continues to work there because it offers growth.

“From when I first started to work there until now, it has tremendously grown into a family culture,” he said.

In Guam, there are always events hosted to bring family and friends together. Rendezvooth offers their booths to be used for every island event such as, birthdays, weddings, 5K races, christenings, and more.

Customers also raved about this photo booth company.

Ashley Conolly chose RendezVooth to be provide a photo booth at her wedding reception.

“I was told that Rendezvooth had the best template designs, so I decided to try it out for myself,” Conolly said.

Not only was Conolly in love with the template design, but she also enjoyed the lively staff and photos

“It was a good thing I went with the company because it offered the guests something fun to look forward to and the quality of the photos were perfect,” Conolly said.

DeAusen explains that there are more things to come for Rendezvous Designs for the upcoming new year.
