Happy 2013!  On a warm October day we were having lunch in West Hartford Center, just up the road from our house.  We ran into our neighbor, Mike Mahoney from RLM Co., who leases much of the commercial space in the Center.  Got to talking about our growing interest in opening a studio, and Mike mentioned that a space was being vacated at 10 LaSalle–in the old Blue Acorn store.  After nine years as a home-based business, we sensed this was the right time, right place, right opportunity so….we’re opening our first photography studio right in West Hartford Center!

It’s around the corner from Lululemon and across the street from Starbucks.  Love the location, it’s a cozy space and we have the tradesmen lined up to overhaul the walls, floors, signage etc. this month.  We’ve already done two shoots there (more about our upcoming personal project soon!) and I’m thrilled to say that the natural light is beautiful so we will have our choice of natural light or strobes!  Planning on a “soft opening” in February followed by a bigger bash later this spring….stay tuned for  progress reports this winter!
