Hudson’s Designer Portraits is located in Renton, WA. This suburb of Seattle, only twenty minutes from the heart of the city, is a blue-collar community that is home to Boeing and the Pac Car Trucking Company (they manufacture the Kenworth and Peterbilt Trucks). Renton has changed a lot in the past 25 years of business and is currently becoming one of the premiere areas to live in south of Seattle. Many of the employees from other local Seattle-based companies reside in the Renton area or close to, such as Microsoft, Starbucks, Amazon.com, and Nordstrom.

The 3,000 square foot building formerly was a home, a real estate office, and a daycare. Renovated by Hudson’s in 1987, the 1.3 acre property features an elaborate outdoor portrait park with extensive landscaping, water fall, gazebo, and even a 1950’s gas station!

Our studio business is divided into 20% seniors and children, 30% weddings, 40% families, and 10% commercial. Only about 15% of Hudson’s business is now conducted at the actual studio location and thus, Hudson’s will be moving towards a totally "On Location" studio in Fall 2008! Below is a taste of Bruce’s new home and the new site of Hudson’s On The Lake!
