📖 Our Story: From PVC Pipes to a Purpose-Driven Movement
Sometimes, the most impactful ideas begin in the simplest of ways. For us, it all started with a $50 DIY photo booth kit, a fun way to capture memories for a family birthday. This simple setup would eventually spark a journey far bigger than we ever imagined.
Today, that homemade photo booth has blossomed into One Magical Event, a thriving business that has served over 500 events, and its heart has given birth to the Magic Smile Foundation, a growing nonprofit on a mission to bring that same magic to every community.
The Spark of Innovation: One Magical Event
After countless requests from friends and family, we turned our hobby into a real business. We took a leap of faith, investing in a high-tech, interactive Mirror Photo Booth to bring a truly professional and memorable experience to events. Then, facing the challenges of 2020, we innovated by launching our Virtual Mirror Booth and later expanding with a second Mirror Booth and AI-powered photography. Through these challenges, our mission to capture joy only grew stronger.
Giving Back: The Birth of Magic Smile Foundation
As our business thrived, we realized that professional photography was a luxury many couldn't afford. At the same time, we saw a need for more inclusive workforce opportunities for individuals with disabilities. This led to a simple, yet powerful question: What if we could solve both problems at once? That's when the Magic Smile Foundation was born.
Our Mission: Inclusion, Empowerment, and Joy
Through the Magic Smile Foundation, we are dedicated to our community by:
Providing free and low-cost photography services to nonprofit organizations, community events, and schools.
Creating workforce training programs that teach valuable event planning, customer service, and digital media skills.
Building career pathways for participants to gain paid opportunities.
Partnering with disability service organizations to ensure accessibility and career support.
From a homemade photo booth to a purpose-driven nonprofit, our journey is a testament to the power of resilience and a belief that a single snapshot can create a lasting memory and a brighter future.
We are more than a photo booth—we are a movement of inclusion, expression, and joy.
