We had the good fortune of connecting with Leni San Juan and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Leni, what are you inspired by?
I was inspired by other small business owners in the DFW and friends who also started their own businesses. I never thought I would become a small business owner. My Photo Booth business definitely took me out of my comfort zone, from being shy and antisocial. It has definitely taken me out of my comfort zone and allow me to develop new relationships.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?

The Glamour Lens Social Booth LLC is a small business in the DFW since 2019. Leni and her son Iziaah has serviced over 300 events in the past 4 year of business.

Their journey has not been easy but it’s definitely has been rewarding.

It has allowed them to develop and encourage young entrepreneurs. Iziaah at only 15 years old has helped his mother in the last four years not only attending event and helping, but also learn how to run a small business.

With a small leap of faith, and with the support of family and friends, they have been truly blessed on all the accomplishes made. They strive to be the BEST, and to provide the ultimate experience..

With quality, elegance, and the ultimate fun for any guest at any event!

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.

The Dfw definitely has so many great locations to go visit.

But if anything, I will probably just go somewhere where we could all mingle hang out , have so much fun and just enjoy the company of each other.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?

Our journey started as a small idea, and it just blossomed overnight. Our family has definitely been our most supporting caste and a true believer of our dreams.  Leni definitely just took a leap of faith told her husband “you know what we’re going to start a business” and he just said OK I will support you.

We started off with one photo booth and then we add flower walls and the next thing we know we had three additional Photo Booths.

It definitely has been overwhelming, but overall rewarding. It has allowed our family to grow together, and definitely work together.

Thankful that we have the support of our family who has encouraged me to continue in to not give up no matter how hard or how difficult it may seem to run a small business.

We are excited to see what our next journey is going to be, and just continue grow!
