Soon a blossoming business emerged as one campus became two, and three, then fouruntil nearly every college, university, and high school in the country is now photographed during graduation ceremonies, parties, special events, groups ( bands, teams, cheer squads, etc. ) and processed at this now very state-of-the-art, efficiently run, black and white and color processing lab. After years of success in special events photography, Candid Color Systems introduced a new company targeting the female portrait market called Glamour Shots. Knowing that women liked to be pampered, Counts' brainchild filled a niche in the formal photography business by offering a complete session to its customers which included a personalized consultation, makeover, hairstyling, wardrobe changes from a vast clothing stock in the store, a fun photography session and what is considered a first for this industry, the customers could actually view their proofs on a video monitor right after their session and order their pictures instantaneously. This first-of-its-kind video proofing system is also now available to our independent photographers worldwide. Candid Color Systems was established in 1972 and has been the leader in special events photo finishing and photography for over 25 years.
