The end of an era for Ivey Imaging

June 26, 2008

The board and membership of the SPPA regret the closing of one of our valued industry partners, Ivey Imaging.  The company and it’s employees have helped us serve our clients well and create great images over the last 30 years.  We encourage everyone to continue supporting local pro-level photo processing companies such as Panda Labs, MoonPhoto, Color One, and PacificColor Lab.  These business neighbors and partners provide a wide selection of services still needed to fulfill our promises to our clients.
