Image Photo & Events closed its photo lab on Putnam Street in December so owners can renovate a space at 42 Eureka Ave., off Lake Avenue, for a new portrait studio.

Image’s Elizabeth Macy said the company has scrapped its decades-old photo lab services in an effort to focus on portraits, wedding and special occasion photography.

The new studio is expected to open in February. Hours will be by appointment only. For more information, call 584-0049.
