Who We Are

Professional Photography.
Great Values. Everyday.
CPI has come a long way since the opening of
its first studio over 60 years ago, to become a
leader in the portrait photography industry.
Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, we are
the owner and operator of more than 1,000
Sears Portrait Studio locations across the
United States, Puerto Rico and Canada,
providing the broadest geographic coverage
in the portrait industry.

Having introduced the freeze frame technology
which allows customers to immediately view their
portraits, Sears Portrait Studio once again leads
the market with the nationwide installation of a
totally digital camera room and sales station
technology. This technology results in the pro-
duction of superior products unique to Sears
Portrait Studio and an overall enhanced
customer experience.

From a variety of backdrops, products, and
props, to the ALL-NEW digital photography
format, Sears Portrait Studio offers customers
exciting options. We also provide an easy avenue
to view, share, and order portraits online through
our view and share online service. Just another
way that Sears Portrait Studio and CPI create
lifetime memories for our customers.
