About
Grynn and Barrett have been in the photography business since 1948, producing amazing school photography for many years.
It all started in the alley…when Larry, Dan, Marc, and Chris Grenier were growing up in Holyoke, Massachusetts, they played in the alley behind their house while their Dad, Bob Grenier, was beginning what would become Grynn & Barrett Studios. The studio in Holyoke grew through the ‘50’s and ‘60’s with weddings, families, children, and high school seniors being photographed there.
In 1971, Larry was the first of the second generation to join his father in the business. Marc came on board (not a skateboard!) in 1976, Dan in 1979, and Chris in 1980. During the ‘80’s, the company saw a tremendous surge of growth and the need to partition the business into departments. Known as Grenier-Ducharme in the first three decades, the company name was changed in the ‘80’s to The Greniers, A Family of Photographers. It was in 1991 that Bob sold The Greniers, Inc. to his children who worked in the business.
