Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
Palmer Studio began in my grandparents home after WWII when my father turned his hobby into a small business. After marrying my mother in 1948 he continued and photographed weddings. In 1958 the studio opened in a retail location two doors from our current location. We have been at this address since 1958!
What is your primary product or service?
We now primarily are a portrait, photo restoration and family studio. We do still photograph weddings.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I grew up in the business.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
Stability and history are very important as a family photography business. We still follow the traditional business plan my father established over half a century ago. Service, quality and a good relationship with our friends and customers.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
One location is enough! We did have a branch studio about twenty years ago. Now we operate in one location, but are always happy to travel to you.
