Happenings! | studio walz | photography with feeling!

Shew! It's been a crazy couple of months here and I can finally announce that the new Studio Walz website is finally complete (almost) and up on the world wide web for everyone to see.

So much thought and design goes into creating a new website. Scott and I had so many ideas that we bounced around for the new site but our main objective was to keep it simple and easy to navigate. As we all have been to those websites, you know what I'm talking about, those you feel lost after the first click. Well, the new Studio Walz website was not going to that kind of site.

We also wanted to add more information to help our customers quickly find what they are looking for. Our new FAQ page answers so many questions from hours of operation to what should my son or daughter wear for their high school senior pictures.

Another new page is the Raves. We feel so blessed to have the wonderful customers that we do I thought it only be fair for you to see what others are saying. I recently started saving the cards and emails so that we can share them with you. Now, we have the opportunity to read them again and again as a nice reminder of our most precious clients.

You will find too that we have placed more information about the types of work that we do. New to the website is our Business 2 Business section. We have a strong business clientele but it has mostly been by word of mouth. Which is the best compliment to us but this new section will let more people know that Studio Walz can meet all of your photography business needs. I will keep adding more samples as I have time to scour our archives but for now I have placed a variety of images that cover many areas.

So, go ahead and feel free to poke around our site.

The New Studio Walz!

New-Entrance Photo

Wow, what a crazy couple of months it has been. I had hoped to keep you updated with the progress of our remodel and show you pictures along the way. Well, things didn't actually happen the way I thought. There wasn't much time for anything else because we stayed open during the whole remodel. An amazing transformation of the studio happened in a few short weeks. Walls came down and walls went back up along with new flooring, lighting and a beautiful entrance area and dressing room. We still have a few small projects that we are working on. One of which is a new frame corner sample area and another is all new portraits for our walls. Here are a few progress images that depicts the progress that was made.

Remodel-1 Walls came down and old flooring came up.

Remodel-2 New walls going up and new sub-floor (no more squeaky floors!)

Remodel-3 Drywall complete, prepped and ready to paint. Thank you for letting me share our new studio with you. We are enjoying our new digs! Valorie

News! News! News!

After a wonderful Christmas season Studio Walz has embarked on a major studio remodel. After many years of talking and planning, we finally said "yes" we are going to give the studio a face lift. The remodel began on January 2nd and will continue throughout the month. We hope to be completed by the end of January but as things go it just may be sometime in February. We are taking business portraits during this time and other sittings will resume when the remodel is complete. I hope to post a few pictures to show you our progress. In the mean time, I will get back to work showing you portraits we have taken this fall and during the Christmas season. Valorie and Scott

Let the new postings begin!

During the fall and the days leading up to Christmas we have the opportunity to photograph many families, children, seniors and weddings that we have time for little else. Scott and I love this time of year because we love meeting new people, it's like making new friends, and we get to catch-up with customers we haven't seen in a while. We are truly blessed to have a job that we get to be a part of so many families lives and to be fortunate to watch their children grow-up, photograph them through the years and then see them get married. So many of our clients are like our extended family. We are at our busiet during this time but it's like having a family reunion every week leading up to Christmas. Now this is a job you can love! So let me show you what we've been up to. Valorie

Julie & Pablo | Lexington Ky Wedding Photography

Do you know someone that always has a smile on their face? I have to say that is Julie.  Scott and I have known Julie for many years and in many capacities...a client, a mom, director/teacher and now as a bride. She and Pablo were absolutely glowing with happiness on their wedding day. Best wishes, Valorie

Molly + David | Lexington Ky Wedding Photography

Molly and David chose a one-of-a-kind Guest Book for their wedding. The cover is a silk brocade "Mimosa" with a beautiful pattern and a lovely texture. The right facing pages have a collage of images from their engagement sitting and the left facing pages were intentionally left blank for their guests "best wishes". Valorie

Published | Professional Photographers of America Magazine

It never gets old when your work receives a special honor no matter how long you have been a professional photographer. This is especially the case with Scott, he was surprised when the Professional Photographers of America chose one of his images for a full page spread in their magazine. The image chosen has won many awards state, regionally and nationally. Scott won "Court of Honor" in the wedding division on the state level and it went "Loan" on the national level. "Loan" is a prestigious honor in which his image traveled globally in an exhibit.
  I feel fortunate to be married to such a talented person as Scott and even better, I get to work with him everyday!  My best, Valorie
