The Camera Place closing shop

The Camera Place at 24 Church St. is shutting down at the end of next month, the latest casualty of a photography world turned upside down by digital technology we suspect (Ponds Camera Shop on Central St. in Wellesley was replaced after 30 years by a home decorating store in March). Camera Place owner Bob Williams is taking a poetic approach to his store’s demise, as seen in the notice on the store’s front window

Camera Place is closing soon. Sept. 30, Yep high noon.

Thank you all for business….lots, loyalty and kindest thoughts.

Your wonderful images, stories and files for 33 years have made us smile.

But times have changed and profits are low. So, loathe to say we have to go.

Come claim your photos and repairs. What’s yours is yours. We know you care.

For photo advice once we have gone just email us and we’ll respond.

Thank you, Bob Williams ([email protected])
