It’s official! I’ve hired a Studio Manager. 🙂
I’d like to introduce the fabulous TERRILYNNE HADEN!
She is an awesome family and kid photographer based in Fountain Valley.

When she came in to rent the studio, we totally hit it off…
She brings with her a fresh point of view, super organizational skills, and a fun upbeat personality. All of which I am lacking. LOL
She is the Yin to my Yang. I’m so excited to have her as part of Team Studio OC. I will finally be able to take a day off every now and then. Yay!

Feel free to “Like” her Facebook page and say hello!

So I’ve been posting teasers on FB about “big news”. Well, here it is…
New Location!
Studio OC is excited to announce that we are opening a second studio!!
The past few months have been great and so busy, we figured we better expand soon so we can accommodate more bookings.
The new location will be ready to book December 1st!

We will now be able to cater to a wider range of photographers and models.
Studio OC will work for full-on commercial shoots with large crews as well as smaller intimate shoots.
The new studio is 1200 square feet and totally private. It also makes for a small venue space…perfect for mixers, meetings and castings.

We’ve got new lights and modifiers, new sets, new props, and new wardrobe… all for you!

AHHHHH! I’m so excited I can hardly stand it! One of our competitors started a rumor that we were closing down. lol Not even close, baby!
We’re not only getting bigger, but better.
A great big THANK YOU goes out to all of our clients and supporters, without you… this would not be possible!

Remodeling the studio has been a slow process. Between shooting full time, studio rentals, being a mom and hitting the gym… it’s taken almost 3 months to get it where I want it. (And even now that we’re done, I’m finding a few more things I want to do! LOL)

We will be closed 8/18/11-8/29/11. It’s time to get a lil R&R, so we’re leaving the kids with Grandma and heading to Mexico!

While we’re gone, the floors are going to be redone. New epoxy since the first round wasn’t applied properly. Big thanks to Behr, who comped us $900 worth of product!
Soooo…. here’s to a new studio when we return!

Salud!
