Pro Tips
by Greg Patterson

(Note: If you missed my previous three articles on the process of becoming Certified, I encourage you to go back a few months or visit our Facebook page for the rest of this story)

I can proudly state that I have achieved re-certification as a professional photographer. This distinction is held by less than 200 photographers in Texas and less than 2000 worldwide.

The news came first in an email, then a formal letter which included a nicely embossed and stamped certificate to display. It's much more than a paper certificate however.

For our current and potential clients, it regards our intention to provide the absolute best possible service and quality. It is a symbol that we have been tried and tested and know how to create portraiture that is the best our industry has to offer.

I've had many friends and clients give kind words of encouragement throughout this process of being re-certified. We do appreciate these kind words. Even more so, we are ecstatic when you decide to use our studio.

If you haven't had a family portrait in the last few years, or captured a milestone such as turning five, or your 50th anniversary....please consider G. Patterson Studio. We love what we do, but we need your support to continue.

Thank you for following along with this story and especially to those who have supported our business over the past 16 years. We really do appreciate the opportunity to capture the love of family in professional portraiture.

The Patterson Guarantee

Our goal as your friend and professional photographer is to create happy clients for life.  From the moment we meet you or speak with you on the phone til the moment your portrait is hung on your wall, we will treat you kindly and professionally.  We go to great lengths to insure that our clients desires are met or exceeded every step of the way.  If you are not thrilled with your portraits, we will make it right or give your money back.  Thank you for being a part of our lives and our business.  We look forward to seeing you soon!


A Heartfelt Thank You!

Our studio is extremely fortunate to have clients such as Shari Ellsworth.  For years, she has come to us for treasured portraits of her daughters.  We have enjoyed the relationship we've forged over the years and look forward to every time we meet.  Laughter, Fun, and Extreme Silliness are good words to describe each session with the girls.  It is truly a joyful experience photographing this dynamic duo.

We pour our hearts into each portrait session, doing our best to create beautiful portraits while creating an atmosphere of friendliness and comfort.  It is our goal that each client feels that every step of the Patterson Experience is So Worth It!

You may have heard that the portrait studio that operated inside of Sears and Walmart went belly up back in April.  It sent a shock wave throughout the nation to families and photographers alike.  They were in business for 60 years and sadly told the world they were closing down in a brief web announcement.  We could sit and ponder all the various reasons that such a large company defaulted, but I would instead like to reflect on some of the reasons our small studio is still in business today.

The number one reason G. Patterson Studio still exists today is YOU.  We cannot thank our loyal clients enough for trusting us year after year to capture your family's precious moments.  Shari is just one of the many clients that we happily call friend today.  We truly enjoy being a part of our clients' lives and love being able to create cherished portrait art.

Unlike the stale backdrops and same old forced posing that sent Sears and Walmart into a downward spiral, we are constantly pushing the envelope.  We are tirelessly searching for new creative ways to tell your family's story.  And, maybe most importantly, we are always looking for ways to improve the family portrait experience.

So again, THANK YOU loyal clients!!  Thank you Shari.  And thank you to all our other clients that I didn't mention by name.  Thank you for your continued trust in what we have to offer.  We will continue to work diligently to earn your business.
