📸 New Perk for Studio Renters! 🎞️

Starting now, each studio rental includes 2 instant images using our Fujifilm Instax Mini 11—at no additional cost! Capture a fun behind-the-scenes moment, a test shot, or gift your client a nostalgic instant print.

✨ Please Note:
• We kindly ask that you respect the policy of use—if you go over your 2 included images, please replenish the film.

• If you plan to use more than 2-3 prints, we ask that you bring your own Instax Mini film to ensure everyone gets to enjoy this feature!

This is just a fun extra to elevate your client experience and create a special keepsake during your session! 💕

📩 Message me if you have any questions or to book your next rental!

Full Transparency Update

We believe in being upfront about everything happening behind the scenes, and we’ve been hard at work making improvements!

One key update: we purchased a permanent backdrop wall system from The E Co., but due to an unexpected design flaw in my room (not our doing), it doesn’t work in our space. Since my boyfriend, who handles all our handy work, works full-time, we’re setting aside all of Sunday to build a portable, sturdy wooden backdrop wall that can work with the pulley system.

That said, the current backdrop stand will still be available and can be set up and taken down as needed (we only have one, but you’re always welcome to bring your own). We’ll update you on our progress Sunday night or Monday morning.

Another important note: when we received the newest large white backdrop from The E Co., it was already in terrible condition from previous use —far more worn than expected since it was just purchased for Christmas. Since replacing backdrops is a big expense, we all need to handle them with extra care. I can’t afford to replace them every two months! We must work together to keep them in use.

On a positive note, we’ve listened to your feedback and purchased several new colors to add variety to our collection.

Lastly, a quick reminder: right now, booking the studio is only available to those who schedule a tour. Given the unique setup of our space, we feel this is the best way to ensure a smooth experience. This won’t always be the case—we’re working on a better system—but for now, it’s the plan.

We can’t wait to work with all of you and meet more amazing photographers! Stay tuned for updates!

What’s our thoughts about baby chicks at the studio for Easter?

Would you be interested in paying an additional fee aside from normal booking rates to include baby chicks in your rental? What are we thinking is a fair fee if so?

I’d love feedback as we plan for our own Easter & Spring Sessions. I have them for my sessions and I am willing to share our babies if you’d like. Just let me know your thoughts!

📢 Photographers – We Need Your Input! 📢

Hey everyone! Our backdrop system is going up today (woohoo! 🎉), and we’re starting with beige, white, and a slightly smaller olive green seamless paper backdrop.

We’d love to add one more color to complete the transition, but we can’t decide—and that’s where YOU come in! Since this studio is a shared creative space, whether you rent once in a while or multiple times a month, your input matters.

Drop your suggestions below! What color would you love to see added? Let’s make this space work for all of us! ⬇️🎨📸

Farewell to The E Co Photography Studio ✨

As I step away from The E Co Photography Studio to focus on opening my own brokerage (I am a full time realtor) I’m filled with gratitude for everything this space has brought to me and to so many others. This studio has been my labor of love—a place where creativity thrived, memories were made, and connections were built.

Now, it’s time for a new chapter. I’m excited to officially hand over the studio to Chelsea Cox, who will continue its legacy as Creative Peak Studio in a new location, still in Clio and ready to help other creatives bring their visions to life.

Thank you to everyone who has supported The E Co over the years. This community was so great ❤️ Thank you to .photographyyy who had helped run the studio the last year!

If you still would like to keep in touch or have any realtor questions|need help please follow me

With love and gratitude,
Nicole❤️

Hello everyone!! Staci here! I wanted to post a get to know me since I am a new addition to The E Co Michigan 😊

Here are a few FAQs that I get! If you have a question, drop it in the comments down below ☟ and I’ll be happy to answer! I look forward to meeting you guys, collabing with more creators and helping in any way I can 💕

⚛︎ ℍ𝕠𝕨 𝕝𝕠𝕟𝕘 𝕙𝕒𝕧𝕖 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕓𝕖𝕖𝕟 𝕕𝕠𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕡𝕙𝕠𝕥𝕠𝕘𝕣𝕒𝕡𝕙𝕪?
I have been doing photography for about 3 years solidly! My page is SR.Photography, I started with land scapes at the park, photos of my daughter, buildings and finally built up the courage to start doing sessions with other people!

⚛︎ ℍ𝕠𝕨 𝕞𝕒𝕟𝕪 𝕡𝕙𝕠𝕥𝕠𝕤 𝕕𝕠 𝕨𝕖 𝕘𝕖𝕥 𝕓𝕒𝕔𝕜 𝕚𝕗 𝕨𝕖 𝕓𝕠𝕠𝕜 𝕨𝕚𝕥𝕙 𝕪𝕠𝕦?
It really depends on what package you book, but I would say averagely, people get back anywhere from 20-40 unless it’s a wedding, then it’s more like 300+

⚛︎ 𝔸𝕣𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕖 𝕒𝕟𝕪 𝕝𝕠𝕔𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟𝕤 𝕠𝕟 𝕪𝕠𝕦𝕣 𝕡𝕙𝕠𝕥𝕠𝕘𝕣𝕒𝕡𝕙𝕪 𝕓𝕦𝕔𝕜𝕖𝕥 𝕝𝕚𝕤𝕥?
I would love to do a small wedding or elopement at Glacier National Park in Montana, Mount Zion National Park in Utah.. Maybe even some really ethereal sessions somewhere in Northumberland, England!

⚛︎ 𝔻𝕠 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕝𝕚𝕧𝕖 𝕓𝕪 𝕒𝕟𝕪 𝕨𝕠𝕣𝕕𝕤 𝕠𝕗 𝕨𝕚𝕤𝕕𝕠𝕞?
Yes! A wise friend once told me, ‘If you fall down 99 times, you get back up 100. Don’t let the fear of failure stop you from trying to reach your goals’ and I really think that’s a beautiful way of looking at things in terms of failure. Failure at something means you had the courage to even try it in the first place!

⚛︎ 𝔸𝕣𝕖 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕒 𝕡𝕝𝕒𝕟𝕟𝕖𝕣 𝕠𝕣 𝕘𝕠 𝕨𝕚𝕥𝕙 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕗𝕝𝕠𝕨?
I’m a little bit of both! I love to be able to have something planned, especially if it’s a busy day; but I also don’t mind randomly packing up for a weekend away or stopping on the side of the road to get a fun/pretty shot!

Introduce yourself in the comments! ☺️
