On January 17th I held an open house and tour for the members of The Woodlands Professional Photographers group on Facebook *. The idea was to solicit feedback from the group on the concept of creating a Photographer’s Co-Op on my property. For those who were not able to attend, I am posting this blog entry with a copy of the handout I provided. If you are interested in becoming part of the Co-Op, or have any thoughts you would like to share on it, I would really appreciate hearing from you.

The Epic Creative Co-Op -for Professional Photographers
If you want to take your photography business to the next level, the epic Creative Co-op might be just the thing for you. Be part of a community of area pros who share office space and indoor/outdoor studios for a fraction of what it would cost to do it solo.
Our Co-op is a place where you will come to shoot (permit free), share ideas, and help your clients make memories that will last a lifetime. The epic Creative Co-Op is home to the largest video production, photography and outdoor shooting space in Montgomery County, TX. Here you will have access to resources such as professional lighting, gear, backdrops, and unique studio sets. You will become part of a network of trusted photographers who share leads and knowledge while building their individual brands.
Come and grow your business with us – we have several membership plans available. We think photographers should only spend money on things that directly add to higher quality photos – our studio and outdoor venues do just that. There are two ways to use our facilities – as a Co-Op member (with all the benefits extended to members) and as a non-member. One of these plans will be right for you.
