LAREDO, TX — Aug. 24, 2026 — Local business owners David and Yazmin, TSS Photography of Southwest Texas, have 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 Laredo.
Through TSS Photography of Southwest Texas, David and Yazmin work 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 Southwest Texas
David and Yazmin Charles have built their photography business by combining deep local ties, a strong background in education, and an ambitious approach to growing their photography business. Their understanding of schools, families, and the Laredo community has helped them build trusted relationships while expanding into larger-volume photography opportunities.
Since joining TSS, they have grown their business dramatically, opened a local studio, expanded their school accounts, and adapted portions of their boutique photography work into a more scalable volume model. Their momentum has also earned local recognition, including being named Laredo’s Best Photographer in the LMT Readers’ Choice Awards.
For David and Yazmin, earning a place in the 2026 TSS Photography President’s Club is another meaningful milestone in a business built on hard work, local trust, and a willingness to keep growing. It reflects both the relationships they have developed throughout Southwest Texas and the strong momentum they continue to build within the TSS network.
Part of a Nationwide Group of Honorees
David and Yazmin join 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 David and Yazmin on this achievement and looks forward to seeing the continued impact of TSS Photography of Southwest Texas.
