I'll try to come by after my shoot ;)

[Halster]

I am bringing my bride to be and kids for a formal shoot. We are going to do up our (their) hair and everything.

[photosensitive]

I regret not being able to make it (sessions scheduled all weekend), but want to wish you congratulations on the new space and all the best in your ventures!

:flowers:

Hoping for a couple shots of myself :o Pressure is on. Too bad I couldn't talk my shy hubby into making it a family shoot. We've never had a professional family picture.

[NinaS]

whew, guess my couch is safe for a while :)

next time you're coming to town, let me know & you can have a personal tour

[Woden Photo]

Are people from other places welcome to come I was thinking about coming up with my family.

[AmandaK.Photography]

I think we will be coming too. It will be a nice little day trip :)

[NinaS]

everyone's welcome :)

Nina, will there be any problems with a service dog? He might eye your couch, but while in harness he doesn't usually take them over if they look a good place to take a nap. ;)

I'm hoping to make it out... kinda depends on what happens over the course of the next week

[NinaS]

we're dog friendly, the antique couches are covered (I have a puppy LOL)

[Mike Jordan]

:D Yea, putting Daron on there would keep any dog away. :D


Actually, Daron, Tara, Denise, Brigett and I'm not sure who else on here, have met my wife and her service dog, Frank. If they remember him, they should be able to vouch for how well behaved he is... at least when he's working. Thank goodness nobody has seen him when he's out of his working cloths. :D

Barring anything comeing up, we should be able to make it by to at least say hello and check out your new place.

Is Studio 20 the name of your studio?

Mike

[NinaS]

yes, Studio20 is the name, there are 20 members in the Co-Op ... and only one slot left to fill ... know anyone needing studio space?

I have a 5mo old puppy, so trust me, the studio is dog friendly as she's all over the place when we're alone

[Mike Jordan]

I wish your studio had been available a year or two ago, although like several others available back then, you are a bit far from me to be able to run over and use the studio anytime it was available for me to use. When I was looking for something, I even considered getting one of those multi-office joined cinder block buildings they have at the Hillsboro Airport for small businesses (basically they are just a upgraded storeage unit with heat, power and water). The price per month wasn't too bad and it was month to month, but it came pretty much bare walled and I was more worried about security if I left anything in it. At the time a lot of downtown houses were being converted for small businesses and I thought about renting one of them, but they wanted a lease and I would have been under pressure to actively go after business to pay for it. So I finally gave up the idea. If I ever move to Walla Walla I would have several acres and a empty (except for junk) 10 bedroom house to play with. My folks said I can have it now if I'd just take it away. :D

We would love to come but most likely not be able to make it. It's our son Michael's 2nd birthday and we have a party at 3pm for him. Have a great time.

[Woden Photo]

Sorry I missed it I ended up driving to Oakland, CA last minute yesterday and back today.

[Halster]

Thank you, Nina, for taking our picture and hosting!

It was very nice to meet everyone, and I wish I could have stayed longer.

VERY nice setup there.

[Pure Image]

Thanks for hosting Nina. You have a great space to work with. Congratulations on your expansion!

[nw_rebel]

You are definitely off to a great start and thanks for letting me look around. It was great to see everyone there.

Best wishes on your new journey.

[Strayz]

Nina, thanks again for hosting a great party and a chance to meet a decent amount of people from models to pther photographers and at least one MUA.. Good times. :)

[NinaS]

Thank you everyone for coming, at one point it was almost standing room only ... guess I should have had a guest book LOL oh well ... you know who you are :)

[Mike Jordan]

Yes, thanks for throwing the open house. It was good to see a few I've met before and meet a few new ones. Sue, Frank and I all enjoyed it.
