Founders Lance and Tom started a photo booth company called Pink Shutter in 2011. After much learning, experience and growth, they created Speedy Photo Booth in 2014 as an open concept alternative for the budget conscious. The rentals are simple, straight-forward and affordable, but they carry over the high quality established in Pink Shutter’s services. Read More>>

I first heard about chiropractic when I was in the 7th grade. My science teacher told me about how chiropractic care helped the body’s nervous system control everything. I found this very interesting as I was having health challenges and was frequently going to the doctor and trying different medications. Read More>>

I’ve been involved in the construction industry almost as early as I can remember. My father is a self-taught general contractor and specialized in custom home design/builds. His passion was to purchase a plot of land, design a beautiful custom home, hand draw the blueprints and complete the construction from rough grading to a finished product. Read More>>

Having graduated from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena in 2008, my first instinct was to have space to work. With the opening of Modest Fly Art in 2009, I had decided to use my space as a small gallery, showcasing other artists, and using the space as a studio. It was exciting meeting new artists in the community and giving newly graduated art students a chance to show their work. Read More>>

The story behind my business is very likely similar to many others who have decided to start a business. You work for someone else year after year and then finally decide one day that you could do what you do so much better if you were able to make your own decisions. I can’t say what it was exactly that triggered me to quit my career job, but one day about 5 years ago, I decided that it was time. Read More>>

I started in 1981 working as an apprentice (more commonly known as a “helper” in the tile industry) for a company located in Palm Desert, Ca. I learned from older, more experienced tile setters and quickly moved up to journeyman tile setter. I also studied books and manuals on tile setting to gain more knowledge. By 1983 I was ready to get my contractor’s license and start out on my own. I got my license in March of 1983 and started advertising in local publications. Read More>>
