A time to be thankful...

With Thanksgiving on the horizon, we want to take the time to reflect on all the things we are thankful for. First and foremost in all situations is our three 'f's'...our faith, our family and our friends! Without them we would not be where or who we are today! And to all of our clients...you are included in our list of friends and family!!

Our studio has recently been recognized in a couple different instances, and we are so thankful to be loved! What we are even more appreciative of is the support from each and every client - past, present and future.

With community support, we were named the 'Applaud Program' recipient for the month of November by The Bridgeport Area Chamber of Commerce. Also through support and love from our clients we were sent a really sweet letter from BHS student, Chrystal Segura-Perez on behalf of the school's DECA Club in recognition of our business during Global Entrepreneurship week.

Achieving accomplishments like these doesn't just give us a good pat on the back, it reminds us of how fortunate we are to be part of such a supportive network of amazing people!

We hope you all take time out of your busy schedules to reflect upon your blessings, as you will find the thought of thanks to bring many smiles to your face.....and you all know how much we love smiles! =)

CHRISTMAS 2009

Can't wait to start Christmas portraits this year!!! You may or may not have visited our website for a preview of our new boutique backgrounds...either way, we just love our little model and thought we'd share this fun video with you all!!!!!

Playing a little 'blog catch up'!! Here are some more fabulous faces and adorable personalities that we have been blessed to photograph recently! LOVE all the tiny faces and big smiles that have been in our studio lately...sweet, sweet kiddos...so much fun!

LOVE...

We have not forgotten about you Blog World!! We know it's been a while and we apologize for our negligence to you! It's all worth the wait though, because we have A LOT to share! Where do we EVEN begin??!??! How about with a blog full of love - engagement, marriage, and anniversaries!!!

Starting with the sacrament of marriage...Kristie and Denny...better known as the 'McWuerfels'! You can sometimes just tell when two people are truly in love, and these two definitely are! Their ceremony was just as wonderful as the couple themselves, and the reception was a blast! The pictures in between were a ton of fun - as you can see from Denny's ol 'TP stuck in the pants' picture, both the bride and groom have great senses of humor and are just wonderful people to be around!


We have had the pleasure of meeting another couple who is just at the preliminary stages of planning their big day! Liz and Pat are recently engaged, and will be married in July of next year! Their engagement session was awesome - can't wait for the wedding!


We were also fortunate enough to capture three great couples on the opposite end of the Wedded Bliss Spectrum...The Morgans, the Bremers, and the Scotts have all recently celebrated one of the most incredible milestones in life and love...their 50th Wedding Anniversaries! Congratulations to all of these couples, and many years of love and happiness to all!

What a Spooktacular Halloween at the studios!! We had a ton of fun taking pictures and passing out candy during the Merchants Trick or Treating on Halloween night!!! We had to get in the spirit of the holiday of course, so costumes were a must!!
(and yes our photoshop skills are much better than what is demonstrated in this picture...so no worries.) =)

Also....we have a grand prize winner of the SPOOKTACULAR GIVEAWAY!!! Congratulations to Jenny Tapia!! She has won some treats from Connie's Cakes of Midland, some goodies from Karen's Hallmark, and a $50 gift certificate to Hillier Studio! Thanks to all who participated!

We're now gearing up for Christmas...we're almost all decorated and our backgrounds are ready to go!! Book your appointment today for our new Boutique-style backgrounds in November! http://hillierstudio.bookmonline.com/schedules/NovHoliday
