There's more to come!

I am searching for all the photos we took so I may contine our saga.

Removing the front of the building.



YES! We removed the whole front of the building.

Removal of the frieze.



Taking a break from demoing the frieze. It was made out of tin and housed about 100 birds nests. ick!

The Floor.....


We found that the floor was 5-6"thick from years of adding to what was there. It ALL had to come up, all 2200ft2. Oh we removed all the windows also.

The Ladies at work


The ladies tearing down the frieze and cleaning the beam.

OOH SOOT!




The Building had a fire years ago, we found the soot.

First the Cielling!


Its a dirty job but it had to be done!

64 main inside before the demo crew.



Little did we know that the plaster and drop cielling were hiding the years of neglect and horrible carpentry.

A View From The Roof





A nice little town in North Central CT.

Our new Project!



We purchased this building in 2003.

Almost there.



Alomost done! Please check back as I Dig out more Fotos of our past. Untill then I am jumping to the present.

Yeah.. Painting



Kyrystal LOVES to paint.

Where did all the windows go?



Gues we better get some new windows.

Suprises!



A little rot never stopped anyone. Besides we like playing in the dirt.

Them doors.





Krystal claimed the doors for her very own project, I did the hinges. Scraping, fixing, staining, finishing.

The start of somthing awesome!



A few trips to the dump and a lot of sweeping we are ready...... to work harder.

It all started in the Uconn color dark room




Once upon a time ther were 8-10 students in a color dark room at Univerity of Connecticut. For those of you who haven't had the experience of a color dark room there are NO lights and most glow in the dark things are bad also. The professor states that there is a good likleyhood of some sort of relationship to emege from this semesters work in the "color dark room". Well I will cut to begining of our story by saying Krystal And I (Paul) opened Studio Foto in Stafford Springs in late 1999 in the basement of a framing shop.
