In 1946 Grady A. Snow purchased
Smith Studio at 206 N. Main Street and changed it to Snow Studio
and Camera Shop. The business was based on portraits, cameras,
photofinishing, photographic supplies, and framing. Raymond Myers (an
employee since 1953) bought the studio from Grady in 1971. Raymond and
his step-son James Powers formed a partnership in 1972. In December
of 1985 the business location changed to its current location at 2616
N. Main Street. Raymond retired in 1993 and the ownership turned over
to James Powers. Today Snow Photo and Digital Imaging is a family run
business of 4 employees: James, his wife Judy, their son Jeff, and Raymond
(step-father).
