Garland Camera and Repair Shop
In business over 42 years in Garland, TX!

The history of Garland Camera reads like a family photo album. Owner Jim Richeson, with wife Rita and daughter Michelle, runs the Garland operation while son Kent manages the Mesquite sister location. Jim started out as a camera repairman in 1957. Eight years later, he began his own repair business "on a shoestring." Then people asked to buy cameras from him, so he added a sales floor. After nine years in Ridgewood Shopping Center, Garland Camera moved to 1401 Northwest Highway, its home for the past 26 years. Garland Camera has kept service as their main focus. "We still do repairs," Jim noted. "At one time, we were the only store with in-house repairs. Today we are certified to do warranty repairs for Canon, Minolta, Fuji and Bronica." In addition to sales of Nikon, Canon, Minolta, Pentax, Yashica and Fuji, Garland Camera offers darkroom equipment and a processing lab for amateur and professional photographers. Garland Camera employs four in the service center: seven on the sales floor and four in the lab. Among the employees, Kent Richeson and Michelle Richeson both started working for their family business early. Kent began sweeping floors at age 12 and by the time he was 14, he was repairing instamatics. "He strayed at age 19 to another business, but came back six years ago," his father said. "Michelle has worked full time since she was 17." Garland Camera is now online at www.cameraandrepair.com. Jim is happy about being online, "We are now able to do business with everyone around the US and around the world." Garland Camera has been online and has recently added their online store. "Our store online will now allow us to make sure everyone around the globe gets what they need without fear of being taken advantage of." said Jim.
