Yeah, that's right... "evolutions". It's the first of many for us in 2009 and we are starting off with a bang! By definition, Evolution is a gradual process in which something changes into a different and usually more complex or better form. Harper Studios has been 12 years in the making and has grown to make another entrepreneurial move. As I update this blog, Earl is on his way to China to start the next chapter of Harper Studios. If all goes as planned, we'll have two locations; one in Guangzhou, China and the original Seattle headquarters. Both will be feeding each other's success. Our standards will remain the same... high quality imagery, exceptional service and expediency for fast turnover times. Everyone knows, time is money, so you can figure that into the equation too.
We've been asked so many times... "What about the economy? And isn't it risky?" Yeah, it is, but these are the times to be proactive about change and anchoring your future. Companies are cutting back in order to survive and they need to save dollars somewhere. In order for them to stay strong in their industry, they still have to advertise. We are finding a way for our clients to still be able to advertise, promote, save money & time while growing our business and client base. It's a win-win situation based on service and forward thinking.
We'll keep the blog updated on our progress!
It's been a busy year!

As a shooter has worked commercially for almost 30 years, my hat is off to you with this idea. We have clearly become a world economy and instead of complaining about the sad state that the photo industry has become, you were proactive and have made an attempt to take your business to the next level. Who knows if it will work, but you should take great pride in the fact that you have tried to do business outside of the box. Good luck!
