Our Story

Hello!

I’m Christopher Shields! Like many people in recent times, I was laid off from my corporate job during a large acquisition. After the initial shock, I realized this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. I finally had the opportunity to freely make a decision to do something I love.

When speaking with me wife, she asked me what I wanted to do. I said I wanted to do anything that could make people smile.

Then it hit me! Where do people always smile?? At a photobooth! At that moment Smile Chattanooga was born.

Now my wife and I get to travel around town making people smile for a living. :)

How it works.

Two ways to book.
One great experience.
