Steve Carman, new owner of the downtown photo store, said that since Rawlings retired one month ago, many of his customers have assumed that his shop, which has operated in Oakville for 44 years, had closed. "Everyone looked at Ross as McCutcheon's, so when he left, they figured the store closed down. I just want people to know we're still open," he said. Carman, 43, said that although the business has a new owner, the store has endured little change. "Basically the same staff is here and the hours are the same," he said. The new owner said he brings considerable experience to the job, having "been in the dark room" since the age of eight. "I was bom and raised in photography. My dad had darkrooms and studios in the basement of our house," he said, adding, "Until my mom said `no more', and he started up a business." The business he was referring to is Carman's Photo Source, which, like McCutcheon's, is one of the founding mem bers of Foto Source, the largest independent photographic buying group in Canada. "With the buying group, we can compete against the big guys out there. We've got great buying power, but we're still independently owned and operated, so it's still that small store Take advantage of the Job Shop program, a two-week intensive job search pro gram, that includes ongoing support and coaching.
