Whose Entering the Chat…
When I first realized I wanted this space, House of 301, it was to provide my photography clients with a quality service from start to finish. Even more importantly, as a girl who has moved around her entire life and never really felt like she had a sense of belonging anywhere, I have always craved a place of my own, to call my own, and this is what I was holding onto to be honest. I wanted this space for myself and my clients only. HONESTY HERE, SAFE SPACE. I was getting a lot of interest and questions about whether I was renting the space out to others, and clearly, from my original mindset, I was like, no it’s mine, finally something that is mine and I did it BUT now that I have been with the space for 3 months, I have had a lot of time to think. Is it always a good thing? No, because I tend to spiral after a while, but it is what comes AFTER the spiral.. and in this case this time has been good for me.. I have uncovered something I knew but needed reminding and now with this revelation it is so good for you!
I have been thinking about ways to make this space bigger than just ‘my’ photography space. I want it to be a beautiful, well-designed and elevated space, yet welcoming and a place for anyone to feel inspired to do their best work. I realized maybe it wasn’t just about me and my clients, but what anyone could create in this space if they wanted to. For someone who always felt a lack of belonging, I realized I was kind of shutting myself off from that belonging from the beginning and now I say, no longer! I want that belonging not just with this space but with other people! Duh, how have I been so blind? Creatives, business owners and like-minded individuals like me, this is for you, for us!
This is the birth of, House of 301 Collective.
While I don’t have everything figured out and will never pretend I do, we are moving forward and I am super excited about it, especially with contractors in place and things are starting to move forward with construction! It has been months of preparation and uncertainty and while the there still is uncertainty, I KNOW how I want to share this space and grow it here in Northern Michigan because we all know there is a large wonderful, creative market here of talented business owners and creators.
