Think About Your Senior Pictures

Senior MatrixThis school year is going by very quickly. Commencement isn't that far away. Now would be a good time to schedule a portrait sitting for additional senior pictures or to take pictures with your family and friends. Members of our Senior Portrait Club do not have to pay for additional portrait sittings.

Before you head off to college, come into our portrait studio with your siblings, your friends, members of your sports teams or members of clubs you participate in. You can have cap and gown pictures taken if you haven't done so already.

Don't wait until the last minute because you will be plenty busy when May and June roll around.

Watch for us....

ProEventPhoto Logo

This past month, the ProEventPhoto photographers were at the Shaker Youth Hockey Association's Killer "B" hockey tournament at Thornton Park. We were also at the Ohio High School Figure Skating Championships at Pavilion. We were at B'Nai Jeshurun for confirmation pictures and took photos of couples at a private corporate event at the Galleria.

We went to several real estate agencies to take professional headshots of realtors. And, we returned to the Early Childhood Enrichment Center to take pictures of children who enrolled since we were there last Fall.

During the weekend of the miserable Winter weather, we valiantly went to The Night for the Red and White fundraising gala for the Shaker Schools Foundation to take pictures of the couples. That weekend, we were also at the Cleveland Skating Club to take pictures of groups and individuals for their upcoming Ice Show.

If you are responsible for a special event and are looking for a photographer, please contact us.

Warrensville-Van Aken Redevelopment

Warrensville-Van AkenA preferred alternative for redeveloping the Warrensville/Van Aken intersection was presented at a Feb 29 public workshop. This alternative was developed based on analysis by the consultants over the past five months and feedback from the first two public workshops.

Key elements of the proposed draft plan include:

Changing the six-way intersection at Chagrin and Warrensville into a standard four-way intersection;
Reconfiguring Van Aken to extend straight east between Farnsleigh and Warrensville;
Reconfiguring Northfield to connect with Warrensville near the Post Office;
Maintaining the rapid transit line in its current diagonal configuration; and
Extending the rapid transit line through the Chagrin/Warrensville intersection to a new transit/bus terminal near the University Hospitals Administrative building.

Owners' Corner

The times, they are a changing.

According to a recent trade newsletter, for months there have been rumors Polaroid Corp. was going to discontinue its instant film, but no official confirmations. The Wall Street Journal substantiated the rumors and reported Concord, Mass.-based Polaroid is shutting its remaining U.S. film plants in Norwood and Waltham, Mass., in March, and will get out of making film for its instant-picture cameras by the end of the year.

Polariod is shopping its technology and a sale could result in a third party making film for Polaroid products.

Another era in the the photo industry comes to an end.

VHS to DVD $9.95 Special

 

To introduce our new, in-house VHS to DVD capability, we are running a $9.95 special for the rest of March. Bring in your VHS tapes and we will transfer them to DVD. We can complete the transfer in 24 hours.

The normal price is $24.95 for a two hour VHS tape. For our introductory special, there is no limit to the number of VHS tapes we will transfer at the special price of $9.95 per tape.

We are not permitted to duplicate copyrighted, professionally produced tapes so please don't bring in your Dora the Explorer tapes.

This special doesn't last for very long so dig out those old VHS tapes now and bring them on in before they turn to dust.
