This is Chris Redgrave for Zions Bank Speaking on Business.
One does photography ... One handles video production. Both create incredible and memorable products....Brothers Jason and Ryan Hadley of Masterpiece Images on Washington Boulevard in Ogden have been in business together for 15 years ... Ryan handles photography and Jason does the video side ...
One of Ryan's guiding principles at Masterpiece Images is that you can never have a bad day as a photographer because things you're creating only get better over time ... That means you can never treat a session as if have to just get through it because you never know when it'll become an heirloom item.... And that comes from experience...There have been times with clients where pictures they provided became invaluable treasures after something happened that made the moment even more important.
Masterpiece Images is a family-run affair....Both Jason's and Ryan's wives are owners, their mom is the secretary, and their sister used to be the re-toucher. It's part of what makes Masterpiece Imagines so special — that their "family comes first" attitude shows through in everything they do....And many times, clients become like family ...
Weddings at one time dominated the business schedule. Now, the 21st century is demanding more online video for businesses, usually anywhere from 60 to 90 seconds...And today, they're a favorite with marching bands, actually being the official video company for the U of U Marching Band. A video they produced of the band is one of the top five marching band videos on ESPN's website.
Many of their productions can be found on their own YouTube channel, MPI Photo Video... Of course, You Tube publicity helps, but so does old fashioned telling friends and family... And now a nearby suit shop will also send missionaries over to them to get missionary pictures, which often turn into family portraits ... It shows the immense diversification that Masterpiece Images offers and allows them to be involved in capturing many different aspects of our lives ...
