HKR Photography in Germantown, Tennessee is our featured small business this week.   Approaching the first anniversary of the founding of her business, owner Tammy Davis describes herself as a photographer specializing in sports and action photography who also has experience with family portraits, maternity, engagement, wedding and bridal and baby showers.  Upon asking Tammy how her business came about, this was her reply:

“I started HKR Photography in August of 2011, but I got really interested in photography when I received a Canon camera for Christmas 2010. When my oldest son was playing football in the fall of 2010, a woman had asked me if I wanted someone to take photos of my son for a sports poster.  I said yes. Then I found out it was $50 for the poster.  I thought that I could do that, all I needed was a good camera.  So when my youngest son started playing baseball in the spring of2011, I took my camera out to the field and took pictures.  Then I had a friend of mine help me make a poster just like my oldest son’s poster from the year before.  The poster my friend and I made turned out better than the one I bought for $50! Since then I have taken engagement photos, baby showers, weddings, and lots of sports photos. I have even taken graduation photos.”

 

Tammy named her business for her children, Haley, Kaleb and Ryan.  Although Haley is currently away at college, Tammy would like to see her business grow so that she can stay home with her two younger children, Kaleb and Ryan, or at least provide her with a part-time career so that she can spend more time with her family than her full-time job allows.  Even while she hopes it will provide her with more time with her family, her sitting fees are relatively low; for weddings, her fee is $275 for the first 90 minutes and $50 for each additional hour, and $50 sitting fees for other portraits.   She has done photo sessions outside of the Memphis area and travel fees are based on mileage if the commute takes longer than one hour.
