When I became chapter president, my chapter was stuck in the contract time warp with Fraternal Composite. "We'll keep the price the same if you sign for another year". Then the price goes up with inflation.

I refused to sign an addendum to the contract and we as well had horrible service. I, on behalf of the chapter, sued Fraternal Composite, with me representing us pro se. They counterclaimed a breach of contract. We ended up winning, getting out of the 3 year contract that my predecessors got us into, and getting our money back. I guess that's why I became a lawyer.

I say keep the business in your local community. Strike a deal with a local photographer to get the pictures done. They are usually used to the quick processing (It's like getting your pictures done for prom) and then send the pcitures to a framer in town. They can probably construct something similar to what Fraternal Composite can do. It may be a couple bucks more but at least you will get it in the year you took the pictures.
