Today we’d like to introduce you to Mayra Peña.
Hi Mayra, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
It all started when I experienced a photo booth at a quinceañera – I was instantly hooked. I’ve always loved capturing moments, so we decided to invest in our own photo booth. We will never forget our first client. They needed instant prints, and we had no idea what we were doing – but we said yes anyway. Nervous but determined we watched countless videos trying to get our printer to work; the part that makes the printer wireless was not working. The client had already paid and nothing was printing. After hours of trial and error (and a few frantic calls for help), we finally figured it out – and pulled off our very first event. That day, we discovered something special: the joy of serving others and helping them make memories. Seeing people laugh, smile and come together – that’s what drives us. Today our photo booth is more than just a camera. Its fun, stylish, and brings people together. We’ve added a variety of backdrops, including stunning luxury flower walls, to help elevate any space and make every event unforgettable.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
We’ve had our fair share of technical struggles – specially with the printer. But now? We’re pros (printer and all, lol). Honestly, the biggest challenge wasn’t the equipment – it was learning how to work together as a team. My husband and I didn’t always agree, especially when setting up at events. But over time, we figured out what works. He’s amazing at organizing everything and making sure the setup is flawless. I’ve learned that the secret to a smooth day is letting him shine where he’s best. Meanwhile I handle all the behind-the -scenes magic to bring the event to life.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
We run a photo booth and flower wall rental business focused on creating fun, stylish and memorable experiences. Our photo booth isn’t just about taking pictures – it’s about bringing people together, sparking laughter and capturing moments that matter. We offer a variety of modern backdrops and luxury flower walls that instantly elevate any space, whether it’s a wedding, birthday, corporate event or private party.
What sets us apart is the personal touch we bring to every event. We’re hands on from start to finish, making sure every detail is thoughtful and tailored. We’re proud of how far we’ve come- especially learning everything from scratch and turning our passion into something people love and enjoy.
But what we’re most proud of? Seeing guests light up with joy and knowing we helped make those moments unforgettable.
So maybe we end on discussing what matters most to you and why?
What matters most to us is faith, family and strong values. We believe in putting God first, staying rooted in family, and living by principles that guide how we treat others. Were stronger when we stand together, and the values we live by shape not just our lives = but the impact we leave on others.
