We will be closing the studio starting December 22. We will return to the studio February 1, 2011. The time off won't all be spent having fun. We're sketching new ideas for sets, and scouting new locations.
If you need to get a hold of us, send us an email, finephotos@studio1004.net
Or you can call the studio and leave a voice mail. I Can't promise that we'll get to you right way...but we will periodically check emails and voice mails.
I want to take this opportunity to also say THANK YOU to our loyal clients! This year has been amazing and I've been able to add some amazing work to our print competition folder.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Sophia B. | babysteps™
Sophia was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for the first hour of her session...which is not what we wanted. So, we waited and waited and waited for nearly two hours for her to finally fall asleep.
I'm excited to see her grow this first year. She's doing our babysteps™ program.
Formerly known as the “Watch-Me-Grow” program, the babysteps™ package is designed to capture your baby’s first year of life. Four separate photo sessions are held at 2 weeks, 4 months, 8 months and one year.

Kayelene | KHS Senior 2011
Kayelene is oh so sweet and bubbly! And the camera totally loves her! She was a little shy at first and before we got started she warned me she was not a fan of having her picture take. I said, "Don't you worry your precious little head honey, by the time I'm done you're going to want to come back for more! Then I showed her a few of the shots on the camera display. She swung her hand up to her mouth and gasped! "OMG...I can't believe that's me! I love it!"

Each of one the Dorrell boys has such an unique personality and all three are full of intrigue and wonder.
I knew getting a shot of all three of them together would take a miracle...so instead, I just let each one do his thing while I ran, rolled, and crawled to get a shot. After their session, I had to lie on the couch for at least 10 minutes to catch my breath.

Here's how we did it: Kate is running back and forth behind Ty while the sparklers burn. The camera shutter speed is so slow that it picks up the sparks but not Kate. Crazy right! And we're glad to say we didn't burn down our studio attempting the shot!

Labor of Love | Baby Art Calendars
The Baby Art Calendar project is a collaboration between Studio 1004
Modern Photography and Northeast Regional Medical Center (NRMC). The calendar is a celebration of the hospital's newly renovated OB/Nursery Unit.
Studio 1004 and NRMC realize that not all children are blessed with a kind and nurturing environment. So Studio 1004 and NRMC decided to donate all the proceeds of the Baby Art Calendar to Victim Support Services (VSS).
"We want the the Baby Art Calendar to bring people joy, but we also want to raise awareness about the hidden crime of child abuse and neglect," said Hector Contreras, Studio 1004 owner and photographer.
VSS provides counseling and shelter for Northeast Missouri victims of violence and abuse, primarily women and children.
If you would like to help the cause, you can purchase a calendar at these fine Kirksville retailers: Hy-Vee(@Customer Service counter), Hastings, Sweet Espressions Coffee House, Kirksville Area Chamber of Commerce, The Green Door, Hidden Treasures, Reflections 2000, Studio 1004, and the Northeast Regional Medical Center Gift Shop.
We can also mail you a calendar. Just send your check for $13 made out to "VSS" to:
Studio 1004
P.O. Box 191
Kirksville, MO 63501
Please make checks payable to Victim Support Services.
PS: I want to take this opportunity to thank all the parents of our baby models for having the patience to work with my crazy schedule. This project would not have been possible without their appreciation and love for the art and the cause.
I also want to thank my right hand woman, Kate Elrod, for her dedication and organizational skills to get this project scheduled into my calendar. Kate, you are simply the best!
We have created a special website for this project...www.studio1004babyart.net for you to see.

Modern Photography and Northeast Regional Medical Center (NRMC). The calendar is a celebration of the hospital's newly renovated OB/Nursery Unit.
Studio 1004 and NRMC realize that not all children are blessed with a kind and nurturing environment. So Studio 1004 and NRMC decided to donate all the proceeds of the Baby Art Calendar to Victim Support Services (VSS).
"We want the the Baby Art Calendar to bring people joy, but we also want to raise awareness about the hidden crime of child abuse and neglect," said Hector Contreras, Studio 1004 owner and photographer.
VSS provides counseling and shelter for Northeast Missouri victims of violence and abuse, primarily women and children.
If you would like to help the cause, you can purchase a calendar at these fine Kirksville retailers: Hy-Vee(@Customer Service counter), Hastings, Sweet Espressions Coffee House, Kirksville Area Chamber of Commerce, The Green Door, Hidden Treasures, Reflections 2000, Studio 1004, and the Northeast Regional Medical Center Gift Shop.
We can also mail you a calendar. Just send your check for $13 made out to "VSS" to:

MOPPA Awards
The Professional Photographers Association of Missouri held its Fall Seminar in Osage Beach this weekend. I decided to enter my first print competition to get some feedback on a couple of my prints. And much to my surprise, I came back a winner!
Here are my two winning prints!
