I’m so glad you stopped by my blogsite! Short history…I opened Andrea Jones Photography almost ten years ago. After a couple of years working out of my home, I opened my first studio in downtown Helena, MT. I was there for three years and LOVED every moment of it. When my lease was up, I was planning to move to a much bigger space to accommodate my growing business. But at that same time, I found out we were expecting another baby. I made the choice to stay home with my kids and work very part-time and on-location. Because Andrea Jones Photography was an established, high end studio with a focus on studio portaits, customer service and quality prints and canvases, I didn’t want to jeopardize the reputation of my business by offering a lesser quality product. However, I knew that as a full time mom, I wouldn’t be able to provide that time intensive service to my clients. So, I started another business, ShutterBee by Andrea Jones. ShutterBee focused on short, on-location sessions with digital files. While the quality of the photography didn’t change, the amount of time I spent with each client was drastically reduced. This worked fine for a few years while I had little ones in diapers and most days I was lucky to manage to comb my hair. But now that my baby is three, I want to do what I do best. So I’m saying farewell to ShutterBee and returning to Andrea Jones Photography, where, once again, I can focus on my clients and on offering the best in service and quality.
