Big news for TJP Studios…

I know many of you have been waiting for this announcement…
and wondering what the full details are…

so, here we go…

This year, we made a huge decision to cut back our hours… reducing them so that we can spend more time with our own families, creating precious memories for ourselves.  With that thought, it also lead to another huge decision… what to do our retail studio in Palatine?  With cut down hours, we would still have the expense of a studio retail space… which is what lead to this decision.

After a happy 2 years in our retail location, we made the choice and are going to be closing our retail studio doors as of May 1st 2014.  The retail space is no longer necessary with our reduced hours, so we are stepping back and taking things to their original beginnings with TJP.

Don’t be sad… I mean, we have had some amazing times & shot some super beautiful images in our studio… but Tracy Joy Photography (Tracy & Jamie) are NOT closing, just a retail location. We will still be happily snapping our regular clients, capturing those same precious moments through photography… but our session style will now change.

Our new “style” will be more organic, free flowing, and touch base with our beginning in photography and our true love of photography as art… with nature.

Newborns will be held out of my home studio (like they were in the beginning)…
you will see the same beautiful props & images we have always provided to our newborn clients.

Babies 6m+, toddlers, families will all be held OUTDOORS (maybe a new in private homes).  With the beautiful backdrop of nature, we will only be going lifestyle sessions out and about in fields, meadows and local parks.  This means no more studio style images of babies & toddlers.  These sessions will all be held in the great beautiful outdoors of Lake/Cook County, and this we are truly excited about!
Jamie and I lOVE shooting outdoors, there is something magical about nature and babies.

Again…

DO

NOT

WORRY

We are NOT closing our photography business, just closing the retail location that we have worked from (and loved) in downtown Palatine.

What do you have to look forward to in 2014 from TJP?
More images like these… which we know you will enJOY!

So don’t be sad…

BE EXCITED!!!

2014 is going to bring great things to Tracy Joy Photography… and we are excited to share them with you!
