About

Hudson Studio has been one of the premiere studios in the Toledo, Ohio, southeast Michigan area for nearly 35 years. A staff of seasoned professionals together with young, fresh ideas and photographers, we are able to cover all styles and needs of your wedding day.  My name is Janet Hudson and I’ve photographed over 2500 weddings.  I love shooting weddings and since the digital revolution, it’s even more exciting than ever before.  There is nothing more exciting than working with a couple on their wedding day.  The romance, the fun, the excitement, the emotion....how could you ever not love it?  
I personally work at each wedding with a budding, wonderful young woman photographer who helps in covering the photojournalist areas of the wedding while I work on the "necessary" photographs and portraits.  It makes for a wonderful combination of photography that covers every inch of your wedding day.  We shoot in color, black and white, and do exciting special effects shots, too.    What you won’t have in the end is a bunch of non-shots...photographs that anyone could take.  We pride ourselves in capturing the special moments, the emotion, the laughter and elegance of of your day in a professional, yet fun way.  

I have spents years learning the nuances of portraiture...how to make each person look their very best.  The best pose, the best lighting, and making sure that everyone feels at ease in front of the camera so we get the best expressions.
I have been in business for 34 years and you can feel comfortable knowing that I’ll be around to make sure that all of your needs are fullfilled.  Service to you is our greatest priority.  We make sure that you want for nothing.  We will bend over backwards to make sure that you are happy. 
We are fun and easy to work with and yet we are serious about our work...not only on your wedding day, but before and after your special day.  We pride ourselves in fast delivery of your images and albums and have years and years of a spotless reputation to back us up. 
We have many packages available or we can meet with you and talk about your budget and your needs and make a custom designed package just for you.  We service the Toledo, Ohio, to downriver Detroit areas and everything in between.  Please give a call, we would love to be a part of your day and your history.
