Looking Back With An Eye On The Future

2011 has been a year of exciting change for us and certainly a year to be thankful for.  We got married, bought our home, and started Clever Creek Studio together. 2012 looks to be just as exciting. Craig is retiring from the military while Monica looks to continue her post-baccalaureate education.

We are thankful for the support shown to us by family and friends in our endeavors this year.  As this blog focuses on Clever Creek Studio we would be remiss if we didn’t thank our many clients who have helped us get off to a great start.  Your support through your patronage has been amazing and we feel grateful and blessed by your belief in us and what we do.

2012 will be a year of expansion for Clever Creek Studio with an eye to always improving the quality of what we offer to our clients.  We will introduce new photographic products as well as expanding our music and event services.  Please keep an eye out in the near for future blogs and facebook postings with details of these products and services.

We hope 2011 has been as good for you as it was for us.  We wish you the best of health, happiness and fortune in 2012!

The National Guard Turned 375!

This past weekend Monica and I went to the Lodge of Four Seasons at the Lake of the Ozarks for a very special event.  The Missouri National Guard held their Fourth Annual Birthday Ball in recognition of the National Guard’s 375th year of service to our country.   We were honored to make portraits for a large number of the attendees.  The event was well attended and representatives from both the Army and Air Guard were on hand and eager to get in front of our lens.  The following is a samples of the images of our fine service members who were in attendance:

So, What’s So Clever About Clever Creek Studio?

Clever Creek Studio is an artistic adventure offering music, event, and photography products and services of the highest quality. 

At Clever Creek Studio, we believe:

• Our clients should have fun!
• Our clients will be confident that our years of expertise translate into excellent experiences for themselves and their loved ones.
• Our clients’ lifetimes can be enhanced through the study of music.
• Images of our clients will beautifully preserve poignant moments in their lives.

It has been quite a year here in the studio.  Earlier this year, we joined in marriage.

We also made the decision to combine our strengths and talents under the Clever Creek Studio umbrella. We knew it might pose a challenge marketing our business clearly to potential clients.  But we have confidence in the ability of our customers to understand the concept here at Clever Creek.

To be honest though, we are still juggling a few things.

The goal was to give birth to an adventure that allows us to help people utilizing our talents.  Clever Creek Studio is a service-oriented venture first, a creative outlet second, and a haven for our clients that provides fun, artistic experiences, and happy memories.

We want our guests and clients of Clever Creek Studio to feel at “home” when working with us.  We offer potential clients the opportunity to have many needs met in the same place; a one-stop shop of sorts.

 

In the music studio, you can pursue the lifelong dream of learning to sing or play the piano. Maybe you want to introduce your child to the joy of music.  Perhaps you would like to improve your oral presentation skills.  Clever Creek Studio can help you do all those things in our studio or at your home.

This time of year, most of us will gather to celebrate family, faith and community.  Songs are sung and memories made.

At Clever Creek Studio, we like to think that the holiday season mindset is a way of life.  We sing and play music, create memorable events, and record the poignant moments in photo, just like many of your families do at this time of year. The only difference is, we get  to do it year-round!

We invite you to utilize our expertise. We want to be there when you need us and hope you call upon us when you require the services Clever Creek Studio can provide for your business or family.

One of our ‘juggles’ is reformatting our website for easier navigation.  Please visit http://www.clevercreekstudio.zenfolio.com and our Facebook page for contests and specials.  We still have openings for last minute Christmas or Senior portraits.
