Jenn Andrea, Photographer, Seattle

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?
Fun Fall theme- come with Halloween costumes! Each "trick-or-treater" will receive a candy treat bag! The studio is decorated for Halloween; family friendly Halloween activities, crafts, and drawings. Each group receives one mini session and a 5x7 print, as well as discounts on additional prints.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
I found my excitement in photography during high school, and was fortunate to have found work in a local portrait studio by age seventeen. I worked in portrait studios for several years, and even from the commercial photography program at The Art Institute of Seattle, prior to starting my business.

What do you love most about your job?
I get to photograph important moments in others' lives to be shared forever, and watch their families grow. In essence, my job is to capture the love. It's pretty exciting!

What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?
One mother was really worried about her baby's feeding tube, and how it would look in photos, but she really wanted photos during that age. She saw the final result she was speechless and hugged me. It was great being able to show everyone what a beautiful baby he was, even with the feeding tube.
