6 years ago I started on this journey of owning my own business and starting a photography studio. It was a little scary and a little exciting. I think that people thought it was just a fad.. maybe a hobby, but when my family and friends saw that I was serious and saw my business start to succeed they were truly proud of me. It hasn’t been easy. The journey to where I am now has had a lot of highs and lows, a lot of giggles and a lot of tears. But life is good. Business is good. And I still LOVE what I do.There has been a lot of change in the last 6 years. Change in my outlook, my approach, my style, my photography, my business, my family, and locations.
2 years ago we made a huge jump to move out of my house and open up a studio. I wanted people to know that I was serious and that I was for real. A studio showed that I was in it for the long haul. We moved to a decent size space of 700 square feet and it was wonderful. It was like a Chicago loft. Totally different than anything that was in Arizona. I was in love with the space and really enjoyed going to work and getting out of my pajamas!
This last summer change happened again. It wasn’t planned. In fact I was about to sign another 3 year lease for the location that I was in, but it wasn’t meant to be. In all reality we needed more space. My business continues to grow and to go any further we needed to make a huge leap of faith and get more exposure and space. So, this summer we took the plunge and moved once again. This time it is a much bigger location with store front space and a space for a shooting studio. After over 8 weeks of renovations we are so close to officially opening our doors. The building is done, the paint is up, the floors are shiny, and the furniture has all been purchased. The only thing left are the final touches… hanging all the images that I have photographed over the last years.I’m excited to finally have this project complete and open to everyone. It’s been a rough few months, but next week we open the doors for real.
I want to personally invite you to our New Studio Grand Opening Party.
