Mort Tucker Photography, Inc.

Mort Tucker Photography is a family business established in 1971. Mort began his photographic career at Rebman Photography in 1959 and opened his own studio downtown 12 years later. He quickly established himself in the studio by working on catalogs with Cleveland’s major department stores: Higbees, May Company, Halle Brothers and Carlyles. The company expanded to work with financial institutions, manufacturers, distributors, architects, engineers, developers and many others.

Mort found another studio niche doing corporate portraits. One of the mainstays of the business is working to insure busy executives have a professional, yet relaxed setting to visit while putting their best face forward, so to speak. You’d be hard pressed to find a businessperson in the downtown area who hasn’t visited MTP’s portrait room. Our clients include bankers, lawyers, business owners and associates who are and have become an integral part of our city.

As times changed so did Mort Tucker Photography, by creating Howard Color approximately 25 years ago. Named for Mort’s son, who joined the day-to-day business operations in 1984. Howard Color handles the graphics aspect of the business and offers image enhancement, restoration and printing. The two divisions work together as a full-scale production team. The graphics studio is capable of handling details from concept to design, while keeping on top of the industry trends to insure fresh output.

Mort Tucker Photography remains committed to Cleveland, the business community and remained downtown when the studio moved in April 2002. After 31 years in the same building, Mort Tucker Photography moved to a newer, modern facility at 1511 St. Clair Avenue NE. With Mort retired and spending the majority of his time traveling or in Florida, Howard has continued his tradition of quality photographic and printing services.
