TSS Photography Named a Top Franchise for 2026 — Thanks to Our Incredible Network

We’re proud to share that TSS Photography has been named one of Franchise Business Review’s Top Franchises for 2026 — an honor that means even more because it comes directly from the voices of our franchisees.

For photographers and entrepreneurs thinking seriously about their next move, this recognition offers something even more important than a headline — insight into what it’s actually like to own and grow a business inside the TSS system.

This annual recognition from Franchise Business Review (FBR) is based entirely on independent feedback from franchise owners across the country, and it celebrates franchise systems that consistently deliver in the areas that matter most: leadership, training, support, innovation, culture, and financial opportunity.

We’re incredibly honored to be among this year’s top-ranked franchise brands — and even more grateful for the amazing people behind our success.

An Award Based on What Matters Most: Franchisee Experience

Unlike many awards in the industry, FBR’s Top Franchise recognition is not based on popularity, brand size, or marketing clout. Instead, it’s built on genuine satisfaction ratings from franchisees themselves.

More than 330 brands representing over 26,000 franchise owners were evaluated in this year’s research. TSS Photography was among the standout companies whose owners reported high levels of satisfaction across 33 benchmark questions, including:

  • Support from the franchisor

  • Business growth potential

  • Operational systems and technology

  • Franchisee-franchisor relationships

  • Training, onboarding, and community

If you’re currently running a business without this level of support, structure, or community — it may be worth asking what your growth could look like with it.

What Sets TSS Photography Apart

At TSS, our success is built on more than just great photos. We’re a community of entrepreneurs who believe in empowering each other and building long-term, local businesses that make a difference.

We provide:

  • Dedicated support from day one, including hands-on training, business coaching, and marketing help.

  • Exclusive software solutions, like ViewFirst and PhotoMatch, that give our franchisees a serious competitive edge.

  • Ongoing innovation to keep our franchisees ahead of industry trends — from green screen tech to high-converting digital galleries.

  • A strong, connected network of like-minded owners who support each other and collaborate freely.

For our franchisees, this often means fewer administrative headaches, clearer growth paths, and the ability to focus on building relationships and revenue — not reinventing systems from scratch.

You’re the reason families across the country have lasting memories of their child’s big game, first school portrait, or proud graduation moment. And you’re the reason TSS continues to lead the way in volume photography.

From all of us at TSS Headquarters: thank you.
