RICHMOND, Va — Aug. 18, 2026 — Local business owner Steve Sindell, of TSS Photography of Richmond, has been recognized among the top-performing franchise owners in the TSS Photography network with induction into the company’s 2026 President’s Club.
The honor was announced during the annual TSS Photography Summer Conference, held in Denver in July, where franchise owners from across the country gathered for education, collaboration, and recognition.
President’s Club is one of the highest honors awarded within the TSS Photography franchise system and recognizes franchise owners who demonstrate outstanding business performance, leadership, customer commitment, and dedication to their local communities.
Local Relationships, National Recognition
While the recognition comes from a national franchise organization, the success behind it has been built right here in Richmond.
Through TSS Photography of Richmond, Steve works with local schools, youth sports organizations, families, and community groups to provide photography services and create lasting memories for the people they serve.
That local focus is a major part of what makes the President’s Club recognition meaningful.
“President’s Club is about more than strong business performance,” said Jack Counts Jr., President of TSS Photography. “It recognizes franchise owners who consistently show up for their customers, their communities, and the TSS network. This year’s honorees represent what makes TSS special—local entrepreneurs who are committed to growing their businesses while also helping strengthen the people and brand around them.”
Building a Business in Richmond
Steve has built his business by combining strong local relationships with a focus on efficient, customer-friendly photography experiences for schools, sports programs, and events throughout the Richmond area. His location reflects the broader TSS model of pairing local ownership with technology and systems designed to make picture day easier for organizations and families.
Steve has also been a vocal advocate for the technology behind the TSS system, specifically highlighting tools like ViewFirst® and PhotoMatch™ as important advantages in helping his business operate efficiently and stay competitive. His perspective has been featured in TSS franchise content focused on innovation and franchise growth.
For Steve, earning a place in the 2026 TSS Photography President’s Club is both an important business milestone and a reflection of the relationships, consistency, and continued growth that have shaped TSS Photography of Richmond.
Part of a Nationwide Group of Honorees
Steve joins a select group of TSS Photography franchise owners from markets across the country who earned President’s Club recognition this year.
Although each franchise operates in a different market, President’s Club members share a commitment to entrepreneurship, customer service, growth, and representing TSS Photography within the communities they serve.
TSS Photography congratulates Steve on this achievement and looks forward to seeing the continued impact of TSS Photography of Richmond.
