Here is an old 1927 photo finishing bag from one of our old locations on Jay Street. 118 film, wow! That was Kodak Autographic film that allowed the user to take a metal stylus attached to the back of the camera, open a sliding window, and write information on the film itself. Wikipedia says that Kodak paid the patent holder $300,000 for the right to use this feature. The inventor also developed the safety razor.

Here is an old 1916 newspaper ad for our business that ran in the Union Star. We're still here but located at 273 State Street. I'm pretty proud of what my Grandfather started. He was a mechanical engineer for The General Electric Co. and also the assistant editor of The GE Review in 1908. As the story was related to me, he was asked to give up his 2nd Photo-Lab endeavor in order to concentrate on his GE job. 100+ years later we are still serving our community with photographic equipment, supplies, and photofinishing.

So true. We get in the bad habit of posing for portraits which makes them very static and boring. Always try to capture the action of why you want to take the photo in the first place and a good portrait doesn't need to show faces, it could be just hands, a shadow on the ground, or a silhouette in the sunset.

Some great deals for Black Friday shopping on Tamron lenses, especially the 16-300mm and 150-600mm.
