Description:
O-photo will be a photography business providing photographic services and products for consumer and commercial applications in North East Ohio and North West Pennsylvania as well as online. O-photo will also have its own printing equipment to reduce operational cost to the company, increase products offered, and reduce turnaround time for clients.
Services provided will include standard consumer photographic services such as portraits, wedding, senior pictures, and model portfolios. Commercial services include product shots, stock photography, advertising portfolio, advertising media (i.e. posters, banners, fliers, calendars, etc.), and event hosting such as an art show for a grand opening or event.
Products provided will include posters, calendars, fine art prints, stock photography, photographic books, and watermarked stationary. Products will be available to purchase in the store or online.
O-photo will also operate a non-profit program for junior high and high school students teaching them photography as an art named North East Ohio Photographic Excellence Program. Most schools in Ashtabula County no longer have photography programs and sports require the students to pay to participate. Providing a photography program teaching students photography as an art as well as how to market and sell pieces created is a much needed program in Ashtabula County.
