Name: Jacquelyn Shope
Age: 31
Title: Owner of PhotoFunBooth
Married/Single: Married to my high school sweetheart
Kids: I have a beautiful and sassy five-year-old daughter and an adorable two-year-old son.
City you live in: Tucson
A typical day in my life includes…
me waking up before the kiddos so I can enjoy a quiet cup of coffee, while checking emails. Then once the kiddos wake up and we get dressed for the day, I instantly become a Lyft driver; driving to and from school, gymnastics, swim lessons and client meetings. Once we get home, it’s time for dinner, bath time, story time and bed time! That’s when the husband and I can enjoy a nice glass of wine and catch up on Big Brother. Weekends of course include rocking our photo booth events at various weddings and celebrations.
I was born…
on Labor Day!
My favorite thing about Arizona…
the monsoons.
I’m listening to…
my five-year-old daughter tell Alexa to play Taylor Swift’s new song for the fourth time this morning.
My family…
means everything to me! We are loud, we are crazy and we are full of opinions, but at the end of the day we have each other’s’ backs and love one another unconditionally.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
Rachel Hollis. Rachel if you’re reading this, I’m free this Saturday, hit me up girl!
One thing I cannot live without…
my Chapstick! I have one in each of our vehicles, one in the bathroom, two in my purse, and a handful more in my makeup bags.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
an adult. Funny now that I am an adult, I want to be younger.
I’m inspired by…
those who help others.
The one person who motivates me is…
my daughter because she says she wants to be just like me. If that doesn’t motivate you to be the best and most successful person you can be, I don’t know what does.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
acceptance. I wish more people were more accepting of one another despite their religion, political affiliation, gender, sexual orientation, social status etc. At the end of the day we are all the same inside and deserve to be loved.
The perfect day would be…
“That’s a tough one. I’d have to say April 25th, because it’s not too hot, not too cold. All you need is a light jacket!” Haha, I love that movie! No actually my perfect day would have to be at a New England Patriots home game with my husband. They would win of course!
My first job was…
at Dairy Queen.
My favorite escape…
is a good book. I’ve been known to pull an all nighter on account of a great page turner.
My life…
is crazy beautiful and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
I’m currently working on…
expanding PhotoFunBooth to other parts of Arizona.
Always…
be yourself!
Never…
forget to count your blessings daily.
Favorite Quote…
“Whether you think you can or can’t, you’re right” – Henry Ford
Biggest Dream…
work hard now and invest wisely so the husband and I can retire early and travel the world!
My Pet Peeve(s)…
is when people don’t have manners. A simple please and thank you can go a long way.
